I just love the way the cat closes his eyes while singing. One of the cutest ads for a long time - guaranteed to make anyone smile.

Finally an advert that is actually worth watching and is happy for once. Most of the adverts now are just depressing talking about illnesses, death, life insurance and ppi's.
@SuchetB9 жыл бұрын
Truly one of the most awesome visually inspiring pieces of movie making ever. The paused reaction of the lady is hilarious and from a technical perspective, the animation/compositing is extremely realistic on the cat and bird.
@daqvidstarr9 жыл бұрын
+Suchet B But dreadful error between the shot of the cat peering in looking up over(?) the bar above the door and the second side on shot where the cat is looking levelly ahead at the budgie. Just awful. Who was doing continuity ? Anyone ?
@SuchetB9 жыл бұрын
Haha! Yes Brian - I'm guessing the advert may have been a lot longer in running time at some point and they just cut it down to the basic crowd pleasing shots.

Why are people getting mad about the fact that since the budgie is male, then they must be gay? It's a cute advert about a cat and a budgie falling in love, no need to bring in a war on sexuality jfc.

MajorazMasta Try telling a cat or a budgie anything. In scenes where the cat's looking up, or "singing" loudly, it doesn't really look like an actual cat, while in scenes where it's looking ahead or down, it looks much more natural.

I assumed the cat was the male, hence the male voice, and the budgie a female, hence the female voice. Not a good assumption then?XD

I'm sure someone must have pointed this out before now, but that budgie is a male - its cere (the bit above the beak where its nostrils are) is blue in males, and brown in females. The exact colour can vary depending upon health and age (or if it's an albino), but it is the most obvious way to sex budgies. Still a fun advert, though.

Other comments seem to assume that the cat is supposed to be male and the bird is supposed to be female, and then they complain about their own assumptions. The cat is bigger with a deeper voice. The bird is smaller with a higher voice. If you can't deal with that, then consider that cats and birds don't sing love songs to each other! This is fiction, a fantasy, a very entertaining little video. Lighten up, folks!

latest news released, 5 budiges died,12 budgies injured and 3 budgies are still in intensive care after this advert was made, a budgie spoksperson who wants to remain anonymous. Has stated that a contract has been placed on this cat, though the cats whereabouts are still unknown. A group of concerned ex police sniffer dogs have come forward to lend help in finding the said cat, the budgie defence force (BDF) is hoping for a fast out come in this horrific act of senless violence. and are demanding that Freeview give answers in their part in the making of this advert. It is also known, that there have been a few unsubstantiated reports of budgie attacks on owners that have freeview set tops in their houses.

9 years later and I wish we still had it as a kid this era of adverts was mixed you had the Andrex Puppies they will always be cute this one the Babies dancing in the Volvic Adverts, Kids Adverts were Hexbugs, you also had Cravendale with get your own Pussy as the Cats tried to nab the Milk then you had the bloody annoying PPI Adverts and Perfume Adverts. Now from what I do watch it's Car Insurance, Car Lease, Car, Perfume and Medical Adverts with Maccies and some others. My favourite was probably the Coke Cola Magic Advert as it featured Queen It's Kind Of Magic. During Football Coverage every other advert is Betting usually featuring Sweet Caroline or some Football releated song or Pun or ex Footballer and some Diesel Veichle Adverts tried to put a football in it to make it link. Give me the iconic adverts Apart from Christmas Adverts most I barely remember. The Meerkat Adverts aren't bad or the Avanti West Coast Turtle Advert with it on Rolling Skates.
