Strange Honda Advert?

[John.]

did anyone just see that advert for honda, live from Spain.

At first i thought it was big brother housemates having to jump from a plane!!

And so now the Advert from last week, the one that said,

7 DAY's to go
8:10 pm
29th may
live ad on channel 4,

has been explained.

is this the first time that an advert has advertised another advert?? :wink:

I knew they were doing a live advert but i didn't see it.

Wow! The ad was incredible. Well done parachuters!!

[JOSHUAH!]

haha! Yup, it was the first live advert for something like 10 or more years. I really liked it though! It was amazing. Honda have some very good adverts around, recorded or live!

It was actually the first ever live advert for British television:

Was that really live? I thought they were messing lol.

[Mrsir2]

Awww, I missed it! I shall have to catch it on C4+1!
I don't think I've ever seen a live ad before so this shall be my first! lol :tongue:

[JOSHUAH!]

Thanks for that Matt, I didn't know it was the first ever! Hopefully the first of many.

[*mazedsalv**]

Yeah it was actually live from Spain. They wanted to see if they could spell out the word Honda as they were parachuting down and before they landed live.

Wonder how much they paid channel 4 for the time and advertising space!!

[philmyer92]

I thought the ad was really good. They did really well on spelling out Honda.

[Spike]

It was better than I expected it to be.

no it shant, technically you missed it live so you will not see a live advert till someone else copies Honda's idea> :wink:

[Matt]

OMG Ihadn't seen a live advert before this. Well almost! LOL

[andybigbro]

Wow That was cool

But whats this got to do with BB9?

[Splintered]

Good, but it has nothing to do with BB

[Spike]

It was really good but I was expecting them to spell all the letters out at the same time.

[Corkie]

Very good, loved the writing on the mans hands saying "Hello Mum." :laugh:
