New Tesco Ad..............

[lottiejenkins]

I recognised Fay Ripley straight away but i couldnt believe how much Mark Addy had changed. I know it has been twelve years since The Full Monty but.....I only realised it was him when i was doing something else and heard the voice without seeing the face and then put two and two together!

Ahh that's what his name is. Realised he was in Full Monty but couldn't remember the name. He hasn't aged very well!

He made A Knights Tale with Heath Ledger and Jack Frost with Michael Keaton and Kelly Preston and the sitcom... think he's done something on TV over here recently... I always remember him sitting in the shed in TFM wrapping cling film round his chest, and jogging past the ginger guy (whos now in Corrie) and then him galloping back when he realised he was gassing himself!! I lurved him in TFM!!

That's who he is!

I thought it was stretching credibility to think that smart, quite glam Fay was supposed to be with someone resembling an obese Phil Mitchell. So I thought, "it must be someone famous".

What's he been doing for the last xxxx years? This ad must represent an upturn in his fortunes. Maybe she did it as a favour to him?

He has had his own sitcom in the States-wasnt very good.

Has Fay Ripley lost it? She is in the dismal remake of Reggie Perrin - The new RP makes My Family look like Fraser and she is now doing an advert for the Evil Empire. .......She was soo good in Cold Feet.

Mark Addy is in one of my DS1's favourite films - Viva Rock Vegas!
