  • I would say this was an Australian doing an impression of a Cockney - just my opinion.

  • The actors name is Dennis Banks. He was born and grew up in Hoxton in the East End of London. He is the genuine article and one of the funniest people I ever met. My husband, Keith, is his best friend and wrote the commericial

  • specially "I've had a right result, I've sussed it out" This isn't even rhyming slang surely?!?

  • @graciclerocks Not technically but my hubby who is from Bethnal Green in the East End of London says it all the time.

  • @MrCadenza101 Not an Australian. Sorry, mate.

  • @graciclerocks it is its the first word of a the rhyming slang when people say both words that just for teaching purposes. For example you would have a butchers, butchers hook=look or even berk alot of people think it means stupid but it means c*nt Its short for barkshire hunt=cunt

  • @graciclerocks "Sussed it out" to non-british people like americans wont know what that means. SO its not rhyming sland as such but its still culturally in keeping

  • Embarrassing, and No I'm not a Cockney because you have to be born under the sound of the bells of Saint Mary Le Bow in the City of London to be one.

    So unless your on your way to London Hospital and the Taxi breaks down outside St Mary's your a Common East Londoner like the rest of us Chirpy Cockneys..........Cor Blimey........................­.give it a rest!.....Coz dats aw we towk Guvner. Yawn!

  • lol can't stop thinking bout Austin Powers Cockney scene haha! Dad PROPER ENGLISH!

  • wow i actually understood this.

  • cor blimey!..trouble n strife alwayz make a trouble n strife..

  • If your going to do an ad with rhyming slang....please please do it right and ONLY use the FIRST part of the slang word not all of it. I know it for the US TV but do it right. Cheers China

  • @MrCadenza101 Don't be a plonker Aussies could not even try to talk Cockney me ol China :)
