That's Matt Bellamy of welsh rock band Muse you are referring to - it's his style and I quite like it!

Welsh!?

What on Earth are you on about?

Terrible advert. Why? Too bloody long, on and on it drags. Far too long frankly to watch more than once, and considering it seems to be on every flippin ad break it gets tiresome. I don't mind Bellamy's singing (David or Matt, I'm not fussy ) but after the umpteenth time it starts to grate.

No advert should be longer than 30 seconds, if you can't plug your service or product in that time, you fail, get off my telly.

I like the advert. There's nothing wrong with the singer. It's his style. However, check out the guy dancing, 22nd second into the advert. What is that all about?

Every rule has an exception - my favourite advert ever, and this was back before 3D CGI! 90 seconds long, but you can watch it over and over again and it loses nothing...

Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you "BCT St George" - trust me, this is a great 90 secs of advert!
