Ad Awards: Safety instructions

Went to the British Television Advertising Awards last week. Lovely winners. But alas, no PG Tips Monkey. That was very disappointing. I did adore this one from Thomson Airways.

Queen's message delivered by Monkey

Going to the British Advertising Awards at the Walker tonight. A spectacular show every year!

My favorite ads always include the PG Tips Monkey. This is one of last year's. Monkey as the Queen makes me incredibly happy!

Pooh Pooh the blues: Conan O'Brien

Conan O'Brien can be so incredibly silly.What's more lovable than a goofball?

Start Seeing Motorcyclists

Very clever ad that drives home a point (no pun intended). True for bicyclists, too.

It's a bright, scary morning

This ad has been popping up on my Pandora window.

The cat looks mad. "She makes mornings brighter. Every time ... she scratches me in the face, demanding breakfast."

Not your stereotypical rock star

I love this Intel ad. Nerd rock star!

More from Al and his monkey chum

I love, love, love the PG Tips ads. Saw this one at the British Advertising Awards earlier this month.

The ad awards are coming! The ad awards are coming!

The British Advertising Awards are at the Walker in December. Hooray! I gladly pay to watch advertising that's original and clever. My favorite from last year was for PG Tips. I've called my nieces and nephews 'monkey chums' ever since.

Just plain cool

Advertising Age now runs a weekly video run down of the best work on Creativity-Online.com. It's a beautiful thing.

See this week's ads and a top 5 commentary. My personal favorite is this Thai ad.
