I dreamt of an advert last night, not a real one, for a plumbing company.
It involved Gandalf, in a completely normal, modern, average British house, desperately fighting Orks in his plumbing and heating systems (as in, they were climbing through the pipes, covering his shower head in limescale, fiddling with the boiler, etc), with his staff, getting increasingly angered as this goes on.
And as he finally snaps, the Plumber shows up, with light streaming in behind him from the open door, and wearing a billowing cape over his overalls and utility belt. He goes and fixes it, and shoos the Orks out of the house. It was absolutely brilliant.
The vibe was somewhere between Cillit-Bang's
"HI I'M BARRY SCOTT!"
And Chaindrite's (the Thai insect spray)
"die. all die"
The plumber was a live action guy, but thinking about it, his moustache looked rather like Luigi's.
I would hire these guys in a heartbeat.
