Yeo Valley

Saw this ad on Saturday night during one of the breaks for the X Factor (don't judge me, my wife watches it!). God knows what they had to pay for the spot but I reckon it will have been well worth it, the ad's absolute genius.


And somehow I missed this one first time around...



Big up your chest, represent the west!

Conflicted

There is a campaign running on TV at the moment that I can't quite make my mind up about. There are certain things within it that I quite like and others that I really don't. For instance, the casting and most of how it's written, I like. Whereas, the rest of how it's written and the tacky looking effects, I don't like at all. Nor do I like that incredibly annoying voice-over-guy that seems to be on every bloody ad, promo or reality show these days.

The campaign in question is for Money Supermarket and it's got me seriously conflicted.

Vintage social networking ads

Rhian touches herself

Got sent this rather nice ad created by JWT London, it's an awareness campaign for male cancer.

Introducing Miss Phoebe Solomons

I just had to post this clip of my friend Robbie's daughter.

To set the scene, the only calls Robbie and his wife Alice get on their houseline are either asking for the previous owner or those really annoying call centres. Having become increasingly fed up answering such calls, Robbie now hands the phone over to his 18 month old daughter, Phoebe.

On this particular occasion he decided to record it - and the result is very, very funny.

So, without further ado, I give you Miss Phoebe Solomons...
