The Guardian advert

I was watching tv the other day and I spotted this advert for The Guardian:

Personally I found it was a strong advert, telling a story and how the newspaper would cover it, although when it started it actually felt like I was watching a film! What is everyone else's view on the advert?

I really like it actually, one of the best ad's I've seen in a while.

Oh dear, we're going to have to come up with an advert for the Daily Mail now for balance.

As for the guardian ad it was alright when I started to watch it but then I got bored and fast forwarded but it is a well thought out ad

A very cleaver concept, but the story line was just daft and spoilt the whole ad, but thats just my onion.
