Saw it for the first time during the Aberdeen-Rangers game.

Nice nod to CCFC and Two Tone but also to Delia Derbyshire too.

Pleased to see the absence of Wasps.

Hopefully that's because they won't be here much longer

can I ask... who is responsible for putting the ad together?
City of Culture team is here:
For this particular ad:
Soundtracked by Grammy and Golden Globe composer nominee (and Coventry native) Clint Mansell, the spot was directed by Ewan Jones Morris through Friends Electric. Media was handled by Craft Media.

I'm pretty sure on 47 seconds they are using Birmingham's ring road.

It is the Coventry ring road, it's the station junction, the next junction being the sky dome junction. Its sign posted left lane Redditch, right lane for next 2 junctions Birmingham (A45) (Holyhead Road) and Tamworth (Radford Road). The footage is from late 70's early 80's.

Oh that explains it then. Thought the Redditch was a bit strange and didn't recognise it.
