You know that Australian comedian from the Channel 4 comedy idents? If he isn’t up and coming now, he will be!

Nice one, thanks. There’s another lady in that advert that might be a contender but I can’t really remember who it is.

This was a good thread and deserved better:

That’s the one! Thanks TB!

remember this one?

Pretty sure I’ve seen one of the guys from the 118118 commercial in something else (may have been an ad for a different company, mind).

Maureen Lipman used to do BT ads in the 80s/90s (?) and i remember it being a big deal because everyone was like OMG it’s maureen lipman in those ads.

literally never seen maureen lipman (acting) in anything else before or since.

see also ‘call me bobo’ Bob Hoskins, except i have seen him in other stuff.

I expect the SCS lady is going to be an oscar contender in four years time

Australian Trivago lady maybe?

I reckon the new lady Admiral from the Admiral insurance ads will be popping up in a three-part BBC family drama by the autumn of 2019.

Also can see a resurgence in poetry as an art form and the current crop of Nationwide bank poets becoming huge stars like Byron etc used to be back in the day.

hold up, the My Family guy was in that before the ads

also its nice to see Howard from Halifax in other ads

One of the kids from the new OXO family will probably pop up in a Dr Who episode at some point.
