Ooh! Ooh!
The absolute near-guaranteed certainty that anyone on TV from Mark Sainsbury down (or up) will say, "Congradulations".

Might I suggest that, pronunciation notwithstanding, 'heinous' is consigned to the same deep, dark linguistic hole as 'absolutely'. The way I've heard it used to describe anything from the mildly irritating to the fractionally dire is... there's a word for it somewhere.

... but could def. be turned into a film by Tarantino
I could hear this/these as monologue plays on National Radio. Nine to Noon. Oh yes. I'd be listening. Even behind the closed curtains in Karori would, I am certain, be the muffled sounds of laughter.

Just do better than me and don't betray the fact that you think it's pronounced 'shaav'.
You mean that not only do I not know what a chav is but I can't pronounce it either? Now I'm feeling very insecure.

you're making out that there's simply no possible way that they could be using real people.
I thnk you're putting words in my mouth. I said that they were probably talent.
Yes, you can use 'real' people but as I said before most commercials are made with talent.
