Helen, It's a Citroen, if memory serves me right. There's one of a dancing 2CV lurking around on the internet at the moment, except when it turns back into a car again at the end, the whole thing collapses lol

it is indeed a Citroen, it's the c4. very clever ad The Stella ads are normally quite good (although the latest ones seem a bit odd !)

I think with a lot of the adverts it's a lot to do with the music as to whether you like it or not rather than the advert itself. Kxx

I love James Nesbitt Dave. Not sure whether it's that lovely Irish accent, the twinkley green eyes or the fact that he's a damn fine actor. Probably all 3! lol Been watching the new series of Murphy's Law. It's brilliant!

Arghh, can't stand James Nesbitt! Have to admit, it is hard thinking of ones that I like....

My favourite ad is one from a few years back. I can't remember what the product was, but the ad featured a legion of Roman soldiers marching through the British countryside in the rain, while the Centurion shouted out 'Sinister, dexter, sinister dexter ...' (Latin for 'left, right, left, right ...'). They were all out of step, then suddenly they were all drinking some sort of beer from cans. Afterwards, they tried the marching again, this time singing (as per the US Marines) 'Ven-i, vid-i, vic-e ...'. Don't know why, but that's always appealed.(My husband thinks I'm Boadicea revived, thanks to the way I drive. Shame he took the scythes off the wheels of my Escort!) The ads I find myself singing along to have changed over the years, but they all feature the 1960's Mungo Jerry song 'In the Summertime'. I've also been known to dance about while doing the housework (That's why it's not properly done!) to the theme tune for televised cricket. Don't know what it's called, but it's some sort of Samba. Just as well nobody can see me. CB >|<
