Orange You Still Glad

It's been far, far too long since I've posted one of those great commercials for the British mobile phone company, Orange. As you may recall -- unless you're new to these parts (in which case, do yourself a favor and search this site for "Orange" to catch up on some of those ads...) -- these are based on the mythical premise that Orange has a film board to fund movies, and actors come in to pitch their ideas to the head, Mr. Dresden, along with his fawning assistant Elliott...only to find Mr. Dresden changing their personal films to something that will highlight Orange telecom.
Alas, I've posted most that are available online, and unless the company keeps making them (which they haven't for several years), their numbers are dwindling. But there are some left -- as well as other Orange ads. This one is with Alam Cumming who has a great idea for a Viet Nam film. Mr. Dresden begs to differ.
