I, however, would like to hang out with him. He is a freak.

[Reverend_Smitty]

13. Apparently he's not even British...

"Tony Sinclair, a highly-esteemed socialite, is Tanqueray's current fictional spokesman in the US, played by Philadelphia-based actor/dancer Rodney Mason.<1> He has appeared in four advertising spots so far. One ad takes place on an Arctic cruise and in another Tony pokes fun at a man who is overzealous at the shrimp cocktail plate. Sinclair also attends an event where a man plays "Deck the Halls" on drinking glasses filled with differing volumes of Tanqueray. In another spot, Sinclair has the perfect ice cube extracted for his drink.

It appears that the ploy behind this advertising campaign is to simply have the audience wondering: "Who is Tony Sinclair?", thereby instilling the name Tony Sinclair as well as the commercial in the viewers mind."

Including me. However, I have yet to buy some Tanquerey. :rofl:

[SPKrazy]

[Robeson]

16. Are you telling me that their incipient ad campaign has not led you...

Good for you...;-)

18. He's a character played by Rodney Mason

As for me, I prefer Bombay Sapphire and their equally absurd katana-on-ice ad campaign.
