He wasn't bad in 'Oz'. He did "taking it up the arse, with or without consent" very well.

This is shooting fish in a barrel, but I caught an advert for a new Olive Garden product last night and was pretty horrified. They claim that it's "create your own lasagne", except that it bears almost no relation to lasagne. It's a weird rollup of pasta and cheese, which you then pour some terrible Olive Garden sauce over, and top off with a "topping" like shrimp or beef or meatballs. Or, astonishingly, "ziti fritta" which turn out to be pasta stuffed with cheese. You can have cheese stuffed pasta as the topping to your cheesy pasta...

NFU Mutual currently have an advert in which they say that the talk with their customers, and that is how they know their customers want insurance that they can rely on. Obviously before they talked to the customers, they assumed that they couldn't care less how reliable their insurance was.

Can someone explain just what it is about the retail insurance market in the UK that creates demand for sites like Confused, Compare the Market and Go Compare and why they have chosen such an absurdist marketing strategy?
I'm not aware of a similar phenomenon in any other developed country?

Dunno about the market, but their absurdist advertising is all about trying to cement name recognition and nothing else. Confused are onto their umpteenth completely unconnected ad campaign; compare the market have stuck with their meerkats which are apparently a thing.
