Louise and Jamie Redknapp star in Thomas Cook advert
Louise and Jamie Redknapp Thomas Cook
Thomas Cook UK and Ireland chief executive Ian Derbyshire said: “This is one of the most important times of the year for the travel industry and we are delighted to have a campaign that will further stretch our lead as the most well known – and trusted – travel agent.
“Jamie and Louise demonstrate such excitement in the advert about the total holiday experience – from start to finish – and we are thrilled that they are associated with our brand and our values.”
Louise went on to say: “Holidays are a really important time, something everyone looks forward to and enjoys. Thomas Cook is a trusted British brand that we’ve grown up with and we’ve really enjoyed working together on this beautiful ad.”
The advert is kindof cheesy, but we like it! You can see the video here.
worst advert ever
Is Ian Derbyshire Completely derranged? Does he Actually think that paying these two absolute no marks into six figures to prance around on our screens is an INCENTIVE for us to book with Thomas Cook? I think not. The UK is Cash strapped currently, and to think that every person who books with Thomas Cook is having to pay an extra £x sum for this, I am damn sure every UK holiday maker is trying to pull together every spare penny to get away this year, the fact that Thomas Cook think its ok to splash a large sum to have these two in some advert that has absolutely no relationship to them- has me heading for the Firstchoice, Virgin, BA brochures without haste. I think we should create a huge “power of the net” campaign to sink Thomas Cook, for this absolute error of judgement!
A really awful advert. I had to find somewhere that had a comments section so I could vent my thoughts online instead of at the TV!!
They sound and look so stupid, I bet they regret that advert watching it back, its really embarrassing for them… mind you they probably aren’t regretting the sum that they’ve got paid for it. There’s no minimum price tag for some people for making themselves look like idiots on TV.
I have to turn the telly over every time they’re on it – good advertising?….
A fantastic advert. A ray of sunshine in an otherwise crappy world of TV dross. At least someone stills know how to produce a romantic and aspirational film. Well done
On “DW”’s comment – go and book on BA and leave some seats on Thomas Cook for the rest of us – you’ll have more fun that way and we won’t have to put up with your whinging !! xx
It certainly doesn’t make me want to book with TC. I find the most offensive bit being WHERE ARE THE KIDS Redknapp??
Left ‘em home with the nanny?
So TC has a target audience who book package holidays, usually the rest of the world takes their kids with them, but not these two of loved up zero’s.
And whilst I’m having a rant, Redknapp – get some trousers that fit you properly. I’m getting more than a bit fed up of everytime I turn on skysports the first thing I see are your b******s trying to escape from your shiny suit. It’s more like footballers wives than footballers wives.
