Vodafone: advert-body-1 by Ogilvy & Mather London
- Location:
Martin Freeman has reprised his role as ‘Mr Interruption’ in the franchise that is Vodafone’s UK ad campaign. This time, he finds himself held up by a suspect gang in an underground car park in a spot to promote the brand’s indoor coverage.
‘The Chase’ sees Freeman packing up his car after a trip to the shops when a speeding ruffian in a police chase pulls up alongside him, and tells him menacingly to “keep packing”. A helpful bystander offers to call the police but Freeman notes that "she’ll never get reception down here".
She is, naturally, on Vodafone so is able to receive full signal and dial 999 to get the gangsters arrested before any harm comes to Mr Interruption.
