Who is he?

That American burke who advertises 4G on the telle. the one with the very
patronising attitude to females and the completely inpenetrable logic about
things that should be connected. In his case superglue and his gob.

He is Kevin Bacon. Be gentle with him. He's just an actor performing a
script that someone else wrote.

This explains the logic (if any) behind the campaign)

I might be related to him.

Has he no sense of shame?

My gawd...

Well I gathered what it was mint to say, its just that the things he
connects and the way he describes them are quite frankly obtuse and in some
cases a bit on the unseemly.

Mind you that other American Burke flogging Digital radio on the radio is
really annoying, though I imagine that is actually deliberate. What can't
you get digital radio on, a fish? I mean, it should be easy for those who
made the fish fm radio to insert a dab one instead?

He's an actor and in the model employed by Michael Caine, "all work is
good". He also has children who he is no doubt sending through private
school - many actors appear in strange roles when they have children and
need to ensure a steady income.

Also, American actors who wouldn't be seen dead doing commercials in the
US, will happily do them abroad.

Same subject, but different guy.

The one that really annoys me is the old guy that advertises Honda
cars and has done some British Airways ads.
A Mid-West accent I think. We only hear him, we don't see him.
Slightly Jimmy Stewart-ish.

But it's that: " I may be a bit slow, but I'm a pretty smart old guy
and I've seen it all before. And those nice people at BA and Honda
seem to understand this and accomodate.

As the OP said "Who is he ?"

Two votes must be correct.
It's Garrison Keillor of Prairie Home Companion.
Thanks.
A very annoying voice. IMO.


Actually one ad featuring an American I enjoy is the Sky Broadband ad
with Jennifer Anniston in an Internet Cafe (in a hyper state).
(The wife hates it.)

[cafe worker]: Is everything allright at home, dear ?
[JA]: Devastating ! My internet is down ! Again !
[cafe worker]: Well, you shouldn't put up with it. You should switch.
Sky have this great new Switch Squad .......
