I like her look. People in commercials you find attractive?

The dancing girl in the 70's NBA-themed car commercial with Bootsy Collins!

― fritz, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

You're sick Chris.

― Ms. S., Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

what? she's pretty cute.

― Chris, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

She looks like a crack whore with a "trendy" cap.

― Nicole, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

crack whores can be fun? would you rather me say the "Where's the beef?" old lady.

― Chris, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

are we talking about the same ad?

― fritz, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Nicole from the Renault adverts floated my boat. Wonder what she's doing now...

― Nathan Barley, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

She had a silver fox kind of thing going on, so I would say yes.

― Nicole, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

and i like trendy hats.

― Chris, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I hate that style of hat. Britney has worn it too and looked equally crap on her.

― Nicole, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I just noticed the completely stoned guy dancing in the back seat of the car in that ad the other day. I larfed and larfed (and so did Mrs. P).

― Dan Perry, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

That stupid song in that commercial was ringing through my head for days. Thanks for reminding me again, Chris. God the *new* ILE sucks. Hahahahahaha. Just kidding.

That girl is sickeningly thin btw. Ewww.

― Alex in SF, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Her dancing is as repulsively fascinating as that guy in the Levi's commerical. I would be afraid of them in real life. What if they bust those weird moves when you're just walking down the street. Horrifying!

― Ms. S., Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

fritz, which girl?

(i love that ad, btw.)

― jess, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

mitsubishi girl right here!

― Chris, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

the girl in the white bikini and hot pants about midway through the ad - but is Chris talking about the same ad or what?

― fritz, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

An old college mate of mine is in the new Pizza Hut advert. Unfortunately I seem to be the only person in the world who's not seen it.

― Lynskey, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

i like that ad too fritz, im talking about mitsubishi girl above, i think your talking of the nike commericial.

― Chris, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

we're not talking about the same ad at all.

― fritz, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

ha! I like that I've watched that ad and liked it and not really noticed what it was for! For some reason I remembered it as a car commercial.

― fritz, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

fritz check it here

― Chris, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I like the car/nodding dog with the spray on Afros in the Nescafe ad. Also the phone with the frog wot sings Karma Chameleon.

― Sarah, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

yeah that's it. sorry, but she has much better dance moves than the mitsubishi raver yuppie.

― fritz, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

The Bloke and I both have a mild obsession with the guy from the Yellow Pages (bagel shop) and Smirnoff Ice ('forgotten' passport) adverts - he is the English Jack Nicholson with a mad bendy face!

― Archel, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I like them both.

― Chris, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Archel, isn't he James Lance (or summat) out of the Book Club, Rescue me etc. etc.? I think he has a weird coarse face (this is not an ideal description as only I know what I mean by it).

― Emma, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

You are all speaking in riddles.

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

do you think that ad is a conscious atttempt to attract young car- buyers who identify "mitsubishi" with e?

(or were ecstasy tabs stamped with the mitsubishi logo just a local thing here?)

― fritz, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Emma that is the guy from the 'have you got a Wicked side' adverts I think. Smirnoff Ice guy is WAY better and has not so far appeared in any girly programmes as far as I know.

― Archel, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

mitsu e's global surely?

― gareth, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

so then i hypothesize that this advert is using DRUGS to sell CARS to children! wot's next? where do we draw the line? oh the humidity!

― fritz, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

maybe in the next episode weird raver girl takes her clothes off!

― Chris, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

for the longest time i thought "mitsubishi trance" referred to the type of lame dance musik they would play in car commercials.

― jess, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

seems that "Mitsubishi Trance" is what weird dance move raver girl does to me.

― Chris, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I drive a Mitsubishi, it's all coincidence, that was just the car me and my bro bought.

Having said that I did laugh a little earlier this week when the suspension was getting fixed and I rang the mechanic and he said "Yeah I ordered in the mitsu over the weekend".

― Ronan, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I like the "It Feels Like Soft, Gentle, Summer Rain" Nivea Girl. She has long, middle-parted hair yet still manages not to look like crusty hippie wannabe a la Alanis.

― Genevieve, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

How about the girls in the Barenaked Ladies Mitsubishi commercial?

I like the British lab coat girl in the Orbitz gum commercials that says "Fabulous".

― Stuart, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

James Lance is in fact in the Archers commericals.

― Lady Space Pilot, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

More to the point, who gives a damn who the man in the Metz mask is?

― Lynskey, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

i have seen neither of these commercials, but i have an affinity for cute gurls with funky dance moves so i will keep a look out! my shit dial up is im sure not well suited to watching vids online :-(

― Ron, Thursday, 16 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I saw the actual video for "Days Go By" this morning and its actually a very cool video. Only problem is there is actually a Mitsubishi in the video.

― Chris, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Archel, that bloke out of the Yellow Pages bagel ad is notoriously grim. You are mad.

I like that girl out of the (no longer shown) ad where the couple get told off for rubbing enormous feral feet against each other in the library.

Actually I like a lot of women in ads.

― N., Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

mmm, girl from persil and face wipe commercial where she wipes off clown face to reveal, very pretty girl

― chris, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I like the women from those really contrived skin cream ads where they're preparing to go out or whatever. I like imagining them leaving the set and swearing in rough accents.

― Ronan, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

That's right actually it was the Archers advert. They are all the same tho with their implication that it is just sooooo naughty but nice to drink alcohol.

Nick, I do not fancy Yellow Pages man but find his face weirdly fascinating, and I forsee a bright future playing quirky/slightly disturbed young men in British comedy dramas.

― Archel, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

what about the mumsy looking girl in the Boots ad. does it for me, tho she does occasionally look like laura from eastenders which fills me with horror. NO DON'T WRITE SCRIPTS WHERE LAURA HAS TO RUN. it's unseemly.

― Alan Trewartha, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

have you noticed the bloke from Archer's ad and the wrigley's extra ad (easy -- tiger) now rules the tv world. not only in that reading group thing, but also replaced simon in teachahs. who has been shagging? he's not that good an actor, or even a looker. is he?

― Alan Trewartha, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

She's hardly a girl Alang, she must be in her thirties at least & therefore is a womang.

I cannot think of anyone I fancy in an advert but then I am in a very unfancying mood of late. Oh hang on Travis wotsit in his Calvin Klein pants, phwoar, mmmmm, numnumnum.

― Emma, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Yes I did mention him upthread PAY ATTENTION. No he isn't a looker.

― Emma, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

i also enjoy Kate Beckinsdale in the new GAP ad where she is running down the street to my house. This is of course after the angry mob behind her steamrolls that bf or hers she's running with.

― Chris, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

it's too confusing to follow the thread. archer's smirnoff wkd bagel/yellow pages. are these all the same man??

― Alan Trewartha, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

No? I dunno, they all look the same to me, these men on telly.

― Emma, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

The answer to the original question is: the couple in the pic currently (but doubtless not for much longer!) in the VIDAL SASSOON window on Monmouth Street, Covent Garden.

― the pinefox, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

(I'm glad I finally found somewhere to say that.)

― the pinefox, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

They are all the same man apart from Yellow Pages and Smirnoff. Who is the same but not the same as the others. Simple!

― Archel, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

is wrigley's extra guy the archer's guy?

― Alan T, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I think so. I hate the end of the Wrigleys one where he blows an 'ice cool' kiss or something - he looks like he's advertsising a dodgy chat line. Which he probably does too.

― Archel, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Yes.

― Emma, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

i'm glad that's sorted, it really was troubling me. oh the pain of it all.

― Alan T, Friday, 17 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

OOH. James Lance aka gum-chewing, alcopop-quaffing, comedy-drama man has just walked past My Bloke's shop, sporting a leather coat and non- matching leather bag. Now we *know* he is ubiquitous. Also v. scary.
