Even party political ads for Labor.
Who’d a thunk it?

Oh God, this is going to lead to an arms race of awful politidubs, isn’t it?
That spoof is the worst. The absolute worst.
crap script and VO sorry
Do the staff at the Telegraph still call themselves journalists? They are a joke.
Golly! What a shock revelation.
In the guise of a disembodied voice and/or a character, I have endorsed many hundreds of products and services that I have never used or, in some cases, wouldn’t even contemplate using. There are also many that I do or have used and found well worth the effort.
The fact remains that I would never endorse anything that I wouldn’t use or hadn’t used and found trustworthy, if I were asked to do so in my own name and persona.
I have never been famous enough for any of this to matter (Thank Goodness) but I have lived long enough to appreciate the importance of Shakespeare’s words in King Henry V. ” I would give all my fame for a pot of ale and safety. “
The original script and performance are absolutely spot on – well done to writer and director.
The Telegraph represent the lowest point in tabloid history in this country.
