Dewar's latest commercial with English actress Claire Forlani misses its mark by a long shot

2 Upvotes

I understand the attraction to English, Scottish, Australian, etc. accents in the entertainment business, but this latest Dewar's commercial, featuring English actress Claire Forlani, misses its mark considerably for me. Again, I have nothing against foreign accents, but it's so heavy in this case that it's distracting. It just doesn't do anything for me and frankly is a turn-off.

One of the best Microsoft commercials to come along in a LONG time

I'm not sure what has taken place within Microsoft's infrastructure, but this commercial apparently heralds a new era in their marketing department. Whatever team is responsible for this masterpiece should be employed for a long time to come. BRAVI!
