Okay, I swear that it's Kevin Spacey (American Beauty, some plays or other at the London Old Vic, etc) playing the main guy on those Orange Wednesday ads. You know the ones, where they get some has-been actor who hasn't actually appeared in a major Hollywood picture for at least the last ten years (read, Daryl Hannah, was it splash in about 1983?, and Patrick Swazey, erm Ghost, long before his co-star Demi Moore started shagging kids not old enough to buy a beer in the States; why it is star of MTV's Punked and a series of very bad teen movies, Ashton Kutcher).
Anyway, Annie thinks I'm a fool, and so determined was she to move prove me of my foolishness, that she turned to the couple sat behind us in the cinema, and asked them if that was in fact Kevin Spacey, or was I just an idiot?
Well, what can I say, they were just kids anyway, and they probably hadn't even heard of Kevin Spacey.
But, I swear I'm right, and I'm determined to prove it. Then we shall see who the fool is!
On another note, I'm pretty sure that's George Michael in the car advert (think it's a Nissan Lexus). The one where the guy runs hell for leather down a big hill, until he falls in front of the automobile and says "nice car mate", before the car speeds off and runs over his foot. And I wouldn't bet against it being Andrew Ridgley behind the wheel of the car either.
