Every time, different bits are cut from the same scene, so the meaning changes.

There are three versions of the same scene and Smirnoff is triple distilled.

Agree that it is a big pile of w@nk though...

Alcohol ads will get stranger and stranger just like ciggy ads did. Its because there are new restrictions on advertising an alcoholic product in a way that basicly puts said liquor in a positive light. IE the Bacardi ads where Vinny Jones walks into a club and its party time as an example. Not sure if its law yet maybe the drinks companys are pre empting it.

Nope not Britney - she is damned fit though!
Agree with all the other comments as well, it is one cr4p advert.

very clever advert imo.
by distilling 3 times, you get the results you desire, simple really.

adverts will be getting more and more like this for the alcohol, the listing of the restrictions goes on for ever on what you can and cant show with regard to alcohol now.

Indeed, I think it is actually one of the better adverts on tv at the moment.

Simple yet clever and most of all memorable. That is surely the sect=ret of a good tv advert?

The ad has done its job if (a) you've never heard of Smirnoff before or (b) you now feel urged to buy more Smirnoff products.

I'd chance a guess that neither of the above are true.

Grrrrr....marketing.....

Speaking of tasty girls in ads (and apologies for the minor threadjack) but I find myself totally smitten with the girl in the new Clio advert...

..the one where the French girl and the English guy are comparing all things French & English.
