There's a lot of people here making comments to the effect that James Nesbitt was an unknown actor when he did this, and went on to big things later. But that's not the case. He appeared in these adverts AS a popular celebrity. Everyone knew his name and recognised him from Cold Feet and other things.

So good that he could use this popular ad as a springboard for his career. Holly valance did a similar thing with R.E.V.E.R.S.E

YOU’RE VERY VERY NICE PEOPLE! Thank you 😂😂😂

I love the old ads that have a little story

Ironically James Nesbits hair has miraculously grown back since this commercial! It’s a miracle!

The hair restoration specialists were very very nice people!

Me and my dad still talk about this every now and then cause it was just so funny

I do wish there were ads like this now instead of the appalling drivel to which we're now subject. Humour has vanished from the advertising business.

"So you sort out this TERRIBLE mess for me, and I will pay you DOUBLE!" Classic.

THIS ADVERT RANDOMLY POPPED INTO MY HEAD!! I KNEW IT EXISTED

Just waiting for the manager to get back and wow is he in trouble… some eijits cut my nieces hair 🤣🤣🤣👏👏

Hairdresser was lovely.

Some eejit! Loved this series of ads.

Just about remember this ad. Around about this, I was watching TV less and spending more time on the Internet

No way was this all the way back in 2003!? Wow, I remember it so well.

This was defiantly one of the funnier Yellow pages ad's.

I was in the advert as a extra. Shepperton high st filmed

He was outstanding and has proved again in The Missing

0:33 the moment that always had me in absolute fits 😂

Lol Love this ad! Funny to think that Nesbitt is the same guy who played a contemporary descendant of Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde in Steven Moffat's BBC mini series; Jekyll.

OMG, James Nesbitt !! *-*

Who would've thought in 9 years time he would appear as a Dwarf in a high grossing film trilogy :)

Back in the days when you had to sit through the ads. These are what you remember. How old is this now - 20 years?

You know something, when I heard this advert on a compilation video I thought "That guy sounds like Father Dougal, wonder if he's related to the actor who played him?" I didn't know much about James Nesbit, but googling him I realised i'd saw him in a few things. I'm shit with names though.

and four years later he was Jekyll and became a mega star

+richardmoderate He was already well known for Cold Feet in 2003. Given the success he's gone on to have in The Hobbit and various other projects, I doubt Jekyll is much more than a footnote in his career - and in Steven Moffat's for that matter.

I could remember every advert I watched from 1985-2002…the Sky+ came along. Skip!

He really told her that a giant queen ant from outer had laid eggs in the girl's skull 👸🏽🐜🌠👽👾🤖🛸💀🤯🤪

😂😂😂

Wouldnt the mum have noticed all the hair on the floor?

It always bothered me that we see Nesbitt say “My sister is outside and I want her to think that you did it” and then it cuts to the sister’s point of view and we see Nesbitt repeat the line

Cans.

Fun fact The niece wasnt paid at all & ratted him out shortly after

This is the government's position right now with Boris Johnson 40 gone 10 to go 🤣🤣🤣🙌🙌

Seriously? Whilst yes u might have a very minor point, sorry but that's pathetic. It's ADVERTISING for Christ sake!! That's institutionalised LYING!! Do you think that meerkats compare insurance quotes, or that Ronald McDonald is real? Jesus H Christ. It's just a funny advert. Ok? Just enjoy it for it's cleverness and humour for gods sake. There's always one spoilsport isn't there? Bet u went round at kindergarten saying Santa wasn't real. Get a life.

@CandyThomson-tg7bt Many thanks for your kind support. Too many mealy mouthed spoilsports around today and I think that this is one of them. It's a bit of clever fun. That's it. But some just HAVE to prove a point!! But to me. No, they don't. Cheers.

I always thought that James Nesbitt is a bit of an arse.

James Nesbitt needs his backside kicked.
