Thumbs if you saw this actor on crimewatch the other day, he played the violent rapist who stuck ring pulls up girls. Why or how he got work in a beverage advert puzzles me. Anyway, here's to bad casting!
I used to love carling. Now for some reason I can't stand the taste of it. Probably because I've been drinking cider for a few months, I guess the taste buds change to whatever you're supping at the time. It's too bad that it's so hard to get a good lager on tap these days, it's either this or that rat piss that they market as Fosters.
1) alcoholic sits on train 2) water droplets on the window remind him of lager and he thinks about beer for the whole journey 3) he gets off the train and goes straight to the pub for pint.
The ad's very slick, but as someone has already remarked, it seems bizarre to choose a song that's so recently been used for another product. On top of that, the young lady's version of the song is, with respect, complete pants, compared to the celebrated, brilliant Billy Fury version, or even the Jimmy Jones original. AND FINALLY (!) with an ad with so many references to Englishness, why choose an American song? Ah well, as long as ir sells the product!
Great piece of film and a refreshing change for Carling for me...nice to see the subtle use of everything thats British in there too :) great beers deserve great representation...keep it up!
I'm surprised that you've used the same song as Toyota used for the Yaris. As soon as I heard it, I thought of that brilliant ad - Billy Fury's version of the song is so much better, as well.
this is "lager" is it? just like fosters, it takes like pissy water to me

This advert is not bad, but nothing would make me want a Carling. They have somehow made it taste like coins. One of the worst lagers in my opinion

Carling and Fosters are both for school kids. Try a proper drink like Leffe or Duvel.
