linda@no9 Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Why does the 96 fm radio add for Thrifty removal vans have Scottish voices? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROB T Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Maybe for the same reason that the iinet ad uses a rather annoying Irishman with dodgy looking facial hair.... Pleased to see you posting again Linda after a break from PP, good to see you back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rossmoyne Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Absolutely no idea - but aren't they nauseating though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welljock Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 It's probably because Scots have a reputation for being mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Busy Lizzy Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 I'm sorry I always laugh at these ads because they are so 'over the top'. At the end of the On tele as he goes to turn all the lights off - because he's thrifty. It reminds me of my husbands obsession with low energy light bulbs. We are getting LED bulbs now OMG! My kids didn't 'get' why how the accent related to being in Oz either. So now they sing with it when it comes on the radio, because it so stupid.
