I have no particular problems or issues with this advertisement.

You may need to get your ears tested then  Pint

First time I've seen it. It is pretty annoying but I wouldn't bother writing a 1500 word essay about it...

As someone who has done a small bit of acting and knowing countless others who are incredibly talented (without a sniff of fame), the 1500 word essay was relevant in this case. Plus that would be short for me  Wink

And why not - there isn't much else to do is there? Smiley

You always manage it much more concisely than I BO Smiley

Fair play. This is the sort of inane shit this thread is meant for.

Exactly. I'm sure the guy has many talents but a supposed American or Dutch accent is definitely not it.

Incorrect use of apostrophes.  It's not difficult.

As you appear to self identify as an actor, I would have thought that you would want to encourage rather than berate your artistic brethren.

Slight misquote there JBZ. I said I have done a small bit of acting, I wasn't claiming to be Oliver Reid. I'm not prancing around Shoreditch with a cane and monocle proclaiming "I'm an actorrrr don't you know?"

In terms of support. Criticism where it is due but I do state that he may have talents that lay elsewhere. Nevermind just shorten it to fit your own narrative, ey?

Not familiar with the work of Oliver Reid. Is he a member of your local am dram group?

It seems that everyone is an expert these days. I suppose it's a product of the fact that TV is awash with shows where everyone has to be judged and graded.

I also suspect that the marketing team behind the sky vegas advertising will be pleased to note that their efforts prompted a healthy level of discussion on this forum.  We are all now very aware of their brand.

Well, we know where we're goin'
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowin'
But we can't say what we've seen
And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out
