    Oh man, when I first saw this ad I kept rewinding it on sky+ (or whatever upc's equivalent is). I couldn't find it on youtube though. Just... breathtaking. The dude's ham acting is otherworldly. So so so so unintentionally hilarious! I never saw it again. Sometimes I thought it must have been a dream, some semi lucid hallucination. Then gradually my memory of it faded... Until tonight it came on the TV again. And when I searched, lo and behold it was on youtube. Ladies and gentlemen I present to you:

    That ad plumbs new depths of ineptitude. Can it be that I'm alone in disliking the smug couple who roll thier eyes and claim they'll "be in touch"? Clearly they didn't like the house and weren't going to take it, why not be honest and say "The house doesn't suit us but thank you for taking the time to show us around and for not freaking out at my magical moving graph."

    I think the ad suceeds as you are effectively broadcasting it here

    If the dude said it he'd overact, add in a dramatic pause and look away numerous times.

    If they intended in hiring the worst actors they could find so that I'd post it up here then they succeeded.

    They're not selling anything though. It's a public service announcement.
