Whatever your thoughts on Virgin is it just me or does anyone else love the VA advert showing at the moment?
I just hear those opening bars from Frankie goes to Hollywood and it starts to make me smile.........I am easily pleased I know:D[msnwink]

Must admit it makes me smile too, but the one I really love is the Evian babies on rollerskates!

My thought is that there is no way he would have dropped his phone. They were so expensive in those days, he would have been more careful [msnwink]

Both of those are good but I do like the VA one
The cabin crew look sooo glam in the VA advert, I used to wear stilettos like that! The ad reminds me of the scene in the film Catch me if you can starring Leonardo Di Caprio and Tom Hanks where Leo hides himself in amongst the trolly dollys walking through the airport to get away from the FBI, I wonder if that is where the idea for the ad came from. Brilliant music as well.... takes me back to my youth.

I haven't managed to catch that one yet but only today someone was telling me how good it was[msnsmile]
My favourite is the meerkats one. I really fancy a meerkat as a pet.[msnwink] Perhaps its just the accent....simples, eh?:D

oh wow.......that's so cute[msnsmile2] Thanks Caroline
My daughter told me that the roller skating babies are on some of the electronic advertising on some of the London underground escalators. She sees them every day and said that everyone on the escalators are glued to watching them and all come off the escalators with a smile on their faces. I love it too, especially the cheeky grin from the one at the end.
The Evian water advert is amazing, isn't it? The babies look so cheeky and natural, you almost believe they ARE roller skating.
