    just saw the end of a great ad while watching Dave. It was Peter Dinklage singing and dancing along to Pulp's 'Common People' in a lobby (with a receptionist and man looking on).. looked like one of those great adverts that doesn't come along too often.

    Anyone else see it? Can't find it on YouTube.. can remember it was advertising a radio station.

    Thank God someone else saw it.. spent about 10 minutes trying to find anything about it online (either in Google or YouTube) to absolutely no avail.

    Tried googling "Peter Dinklage", "radio advertisement" (and a combination of) and couldn't find anything on it.

    It's not Peter Dinklage, it's the wee lad from In Bruges

    It will always be Virgin Radio. Absolute doesn't ring well at all.
