Adverts that you LIKE

ok - we've had the ads you despise thread - what about ads that you LIKE.
Ads mentioned should be fairly current.

I'll start it off -

The Sony panorama picture ad - clever, good music, nice and short, it doesn't annoy me when I see it again and I actually remember it and the product so it works on all levels...

EDIT - this is the ad: -

And there's even the story of the ad here: -

I'm liking the imagine.ie Wi-Max one with the guy singing and playing the guitar. It's the kind of thing that usually annoys me but this one makes me smile.

'Are there 1000's Shelia?...
There are now john...'
Sorry but I can't remember what this add is for.I tried looking for it on youtube but can't find it.Basically shelia is printing money with a machine including a Eur1000 note which john questions.
If anyone knows the advert let me know.Its recent.

I think that's for Currys.

Green Giant

The whole Compare the Meerkat series. Excellent marketing and clever, humorous ads. Not sure they'll get much more mileage out of it, though.

Mr E

Good idea for a thread.... Please stick to ads that are on TV at the moment.
No drumming gorillas or freaky eyebrows, thanks.

Of course, for artistic merit obviously, there's also the current SpecSavers ad, riffing on the Lynx ad:

I think it's a great ad ... nothing to do with the fact that it includes 100s of bikini clad babes in it of course!

Specspaver's have come up with a few great ads over the last while..

I like this one, but I really liked the previous one with Spandau Ballet. Something about the look on the Asian guys face lol

Tiddlers

At the moment I really like the ad for Buger King's chicken tender burger. The one with the guy eating the burger in a dodgy looking motel when an angry cow barges in.I think it's funny anyway.....

I am going to bring to life a near decade old thread (since I posted on the adverts I hate thread decided to give some symmetry and post on this one)

Love the timing pauses, and looks in it - shop teller v little girl
