Ear flatterer David! This ad is truly masterful - no wonder the reference of David's ads in"Staged" ...

Agreed! But then again, he's a pretty fantastic narrator in every medium. :D

Here I am listening to a soup commercial in Central Florida where its currently 90 degrees F. Ah... only for David Tennant. Thanks, Patricia.

It's a balmy 75F here in the mountains of western North Carolina, and I've got all the fans on! I've grown spoiled by the delicious all-year temps in this part of the world, for sure!

But I'm with you....I'd listen to David's caressing voice selling me on soup if I was in the middle of the Mohave....

Thank you! I had seen the army tank advert before but not any of the others. I had no idea he has done so many, although I shouldn't be surprised anymore. :-)

The Heinz ad reminds me of the classic ads for Unox in the Netherlands (where I live). These have a similar set-up, painting a picture of cosy dinners and only mentioning the brand at the very end.

He's done way more than this! I've got another post or two I could do about his work in this genre....but of course I do. We ARE talking about the Energizer Bunny of work, Mr. David Tennant!

So true - I listen currently to a free on Audible version of Ian Flemming's "On her Majesty's Secret Service".

It is 87 outside here in Henderson, NV and I can just picture David tucking into a bowl to tomato soup, lol!
