You probably know that John Webster is the greatest TV creative this country has ever produced.

So here’s a little film about how that went down:

(Thanks, D.)

Here’s the new Drambuie ad from Sell! Sell! (Interest declared: I enjoy a very cordial and longstanding cyber friendship with Vic from S!S!):

It ticks a lot of the boxes required for a booze ad: it’s memorable, different and for this kind of booze I happen to think that the level of craft is important. It’s an expensive drink (compared to beer or wine), and they want to convey that the people who make it don’t just toss stuff off; they give due consideration to creating something of a high standard, and that ought to show up in their advertsing. Brand consistency, I think it’s called.

Personally, I don’t think we see enough of this kind of risk taking. These days ads are almost all safe and dull. Bat-shit craziness is a welcome sight.

Eclectic method, Bill Murray (thanks, G):

Such a dead performance.

Maybe he’s just phoning it in.

Or texting it in.

Or sending it in via farted morse code.

Whichever it is, I have a sneaking suspicion he wasn’t motivated by the script.

Here’s Bodyform’s response to an amusing pisstake-y rant about its years of rollerblading falsehoods (you can see the rant at the end).

Great writing, great performance and a refreshing lack of corporate blandness. The drink she takes at the end is priceless.

If I had need of such things I’d switch brands now.

(Don’t bother commenting about the resemblance to Blackcurrant Tango. It transcends that with what I can only call panache.)
