Sharing a funny advert..

[gothams3rdrobin]

The UK people on my flist will have seen this already, but I wanted to share it. Plus this way I can find it again if the mood takes me ;-)

This is an advert for the telephone directory service, 118 118; I've never understood why they dress up as Steve Prefontaine, but this advert is class! Especially Ray Parker Jnr's involvement.

Now, if only my employers could hire a decent advertising company to make their adverts...

Ooooooooomg. That whole thing was fantastic, but "I ain't afraid of no goats" almost sent me into unstoppable gigglefits ♥

I KNOW! The goats thing is inspired! :-D

They only show that in sections on TV these days - they condense all the ads down after a few weeks, so that the broadcasters can squeeze more of them into an ad break :-p I was really pleased to find the full version.
