*yawn
nice direction, performance, cast, Lloyd's mum is a bitch...
Love it. Funny shit.
Come on Friend of Lloyd...it's awful at best.
I'm proud of you son.
Good, pretty funny
I like it.
Good.
....DDB did funny ads?
Nice one Damien, good restrain
Two Mc-Planners?
come on 'c'mon', what have you done that you will put your name to...
love that magic tongue xox
Funnier the more I watch it. Shot nicely too.
'Ever wondered how we seal the envelope your Sky bill comes in?'
'No I haven't.'
C'mon & The answer, I'm with you.
Friend of Lloyd
Does the cast include the envelopes?
I may be a bitch, but deep down I wish Lloyd could moisten my flaps.
I like it. A clever way of dealing with a boring subject.
I had a good long think of this. This may sound stupid but hypothetically if Lloyd does exist what will happen to him after, socially and economically? Everybody thinks it's a good thing to get your bills via email and fair enough, it saves on postage, manpower and it's a much more efficient billing system, but in effect does this efficient system make yet another position redundant? Will he stay on at Sky? Is this another job down the drain? Can we weigh this up and say this is a good thing at all? Good for Sky corporation but not for little men like Lloyd :( Will he be promoted or demoted? Will his role in Sky be secure? Can they promise him a different position or will he have to go on the benefit? No offense to Lloyd's line of work but if that's the only line of work he can get/is qualified for, what chance is there for him to get another? Yet another job affected by our economic situation! I actually feel sorry for Lloyd!
crap. More boring-ness. DDB - come on.
The art direction and camera framing save this. Well, not save, but make it watchable... if you only watch it once.
Made me laugh and take notice. Entertaining outcome from what was probably a very boring challenge.
Lloyd is the best aad I have seen in the last 10 years. Well done, message was pretty strong and will certainly save many trees ...
Makes me want to scream!! Yuk!!
