giffgaff advert is...great?

I quite like me zombie flicks. The good ones mainly and the giffgaff advert I saw on TV was great. Zombies but done differently. Anyone else appreciate that for a watch able advert with some decent zombie acting?

I just saw that earlier.It was far too long and gross/disturbing. I watch TWD but don't want to see that on an advert, especially one for a mobile network.

At the cat in tree part I thought it was about Whiskers or something.

I do hope they cut it down a bit though, sitting through it for that long seemed a bit odd.

Was quite a good advert though, definitely caught my attention.

That's really good.

I'd argue a 3 minute advert is extremely irritating and forgets that adverts are meant to promote a item, not be a alternative to the program you're watching.

And yet here we are all talking about it.

If they can promote cadburys chocolate with a drumming gorrilla or a couple of kids with freaky eyebrows, they can promote a mobile phone company with friendly zombies

They promoted it with purple and white though, and made it plainly obvious who was they were at the end. Same with the honda adverts with the rolling tyre. If you make an awesome advert that's not really been done before then it stands out. I'm not sure how this advert will work as a 30sec, 1 minute clip, also I don't think it's that original, zombie hype is quite old now. Good advert though when compared to the majority.

It makes me think that Giffgaff understand me...

lol not. But its more impressive than most shoddy adverts we get. Joe hart for instance, I always shake my head too.
