It is fun, DD always comments on it, and I even remember what it is advertising.

Not sure why it makes me smile....I saw it last night for the first time. Silliness is underrated Grin

Like it too

Wabbitty · 03/03/2013 20:42

I genuinely thought it was a new advert for Findus Lasagne

SomethingProfound · 03/03/2013 20:45

DNBU, love it

YANBU

I giggled nonstop through it yesterday, earning worried looks from DH. Not found an advert that tickled me so much since that one with the cow running on the beach wanting to be a horse!

discophile · 03/03/2013 22:20

It's great. DNBU.

NewAtThisMalarky · 03/03/2013 22:21

Eeek, am I alone in thinking its a bit mediocre? Its set just a few miles from where I live, and I've seen a huge amount of fuss about it on Facebook - but it's nothing we haven't seen before, the main diferrence being a Shetland pony.

ihategeorgeosborne · 03/03/2013 22:22

We first saw it on Friday night. My DH laughed more than I've seen him since we used to watch Green Wing! It's a great advert. YADNBU

I don't like it. It goes on too long. Sorry. Sad

IvorHughJangova · 03/03/2013 22:25

I don't get it Confused Is it just that the horse is dancing? Cos if so, apparently dancing horses don't do it for me. I kept waiting for something to actually happen. Good tune though.

Sparklingbrook · 03/03/2013 22:25

Me too Ivor. But nothing happens. Confused

ThePinkOcelot · 03/03/2013 22:26

DD loves it. It makes her laugh every time she watches it.

Cezzy · 03/03/2013 22:28

I don't get what if has to do with a phone network but uh she's be smile and in my humble opinion if something makes you happy then that's just fine.

I know nothing happens....it's just so joyful Grin

I love the idea that horses moonwalk when we're not looking. Iv'e always wondered if animals do weird things when we're not around.

Sparkling and Ivor - I think I love you guys!

I feel like such an odd one out because apparantly everyone loves it here. I've even had a comment deleted because I dared say it was mediocre (not on here).

It turns out I'm not alone. Yay!

tigerlilly81 · 03/03/2013 22:34

i love the teeth on it when he dances past the bigger horse hahahaha :-)

Sparklingbrook · 03/03/2013 22:35

Is it not a bit creepy? Why a pony?

Fern123 · 03/03/2013 22:35

I've just spent the last 10 moms putting away laundry and doing other boring little jobs whilst pretending to BE the dancing horse and singing 'I wanna be with u everywhere, ah ahhhhhh' in my head.
So I suppose I could say I like it! Wink

scrumpkin · 03/03/2013 22:36

Cannot bear it Shock

Sparklingbrook · 03/03/2013 22:37

I prefer Kevin Bacon though. Grin

Sparklingbrook - why not? Grin

Shetland ponies are funny little things anyway...

Now I find Kevin Bacon creepy....

Can't deal with him since his amazing (but terrifying) performance in Sleepers.

I don't know really Scarlet, just seems an odd choice. Grin
