We don’t need to paint them on the tailfins, like some advertising slogan. That would just be wasting your money.

Tesco: Banned 'Butcher's Choice Sausages' TV Advert
Tesco couldn't show the battery farmed pigs that go into the sausages, because they ARE now sausages.
So instead they used creative licence and used a free range pig farm that supplies some of their pigs for some of Tesco's sausages.

Audi: The 24 Hours of Le Mans 2011
It's never been something I've been particularly interested in, but this is a lovely film about a the preparation that goes into the one day that comprises the Le Mans 24-hour race.
The winning distance is 763 metres, after 24 hours of racing. Amazing when you think about it.

Coors Light - Van Damme 2
Hello! Yes, I'm Van Damme. It was 22 years ago today. I was alone in the Rockies. My clothes were taken by big sweaty bears. I was scared. I was left with nothing except my tight, leopard print underpants. My nipples were so cold they started talking to me. Let me tell you friends, that was the closest I've ever been to the ice-cold refreshment of a Coors Light. Coors Light - The world's most refreshing beer
Coors Light - Van Damme 1
Hello. Yes, I am Van Damme. My pants froze, and froze hard. So tight. Even thinking about it takes me back. Have you ever seen a man-penguin walk after an intense mating season? Have you? When a man's pants freeze as rock-solid as mine, let me tell you my friends even that was nothing compared to the ice-cold refreshment of a Coors Light. Then my pants were tight.

Occasionally perfect...hmm.
Yanks love light beer, maybe because half of them have to drive everywhere as the public transport sucks in most cities. Heineken are trying to steal some of the market share with this mildly controversial snake fighting ad.

BLU have been doing this for ages: http://www.chaletstu.com/2010/07/big-bang-big-boom-stop-motion-graffiti.html
Having said that, stop-motion is nice to watch and this is pretty cool for a brand that is entering a typically dull market in terms of ads.

BBC Radio 5 Live: 'A Day in The Live'
This is a series of ads showcasing BBC Radio 5 Live's daily content, including news, sports and topical issues - airing every night, on the day they are filmed.
I listen to 5 Live all night and rarely listen to anything else on the radio. It is surely the best coverage of news and sport available anywhere in the world. Whatever people say about the BBC, it is the bastion of free press globally and, like the NHS, we would miss it if it weren't around.

Jim Beam: 'Bold Choices' Cultural Movement
Beautiful advert for Jim Beam, featuring Willem Dafoe.
Created by Strawberry Frog, here's what they have to say about it:
One of America's most iconic brands, Jim Beam, is sparking a cultural movement for bold choices. Because the bold choices we make, make us. The question is, which “us” will we choose? In the anthem for Jim Beam created by StrawberryFrog and filmed by Director Dante Ariola, Oscar-nominated actor Willem Dafoe sparks our movement by pondering that exact question.
In this film, a young Dafoe is at a crossroads, faced with a choice. To boldly leave his hometown of Appleton, Wisconsin, and head for the bright lights and long odds of an acting career in New York City, or stay put, and let fate play a leading role in deciding his future.
As he reflects on his decision, we explore the many futures that could have been – factory foreman, chess champion, aging punk, even sumo wrestler - but as Dafoe notes, in the end, there is really only one choice.
“All choices lead you somewhere,” Dafoe notes. ”Bold choices take you where you’re supposed to be.”
Chrome Fast: Google Chrome
Fairly clever idea from Google, who used a similar technique in the Speed Test when launching Chrome.
On the Chrome Fast YouTube channel you can design your own challenge and share with a friend to see if they can answer the questions in time.
PUMA Faas: 'Blam! Blam!' TV Advert
PUMA's 'Blam! Blam!' TV ad for their new 'Faas' running shoes.

Port Isaac's Fisherman's Friends - Youngs seafood TV advert
'The Fisherman’s Friends' are shanty singers from Port Isaac in Cornwall, who have delighted visitors and locals there for more than 15 years, and whose new album is released on 19 April.
They appear here in a Young's Seafood Advert - which strangely features "cod sourced outside the UK".
Cod stocks are in decline globally and in the public eye due to programmes such as 'Hugh's Fish Fight' - a more viable alternative would be pollock.
I wonder if 'The Fisherman's Friends' are concerned about that now...
