    Walking with Johnnie

    I don't recall seeing this posted before, but it's a pretty good ad with Robert Carlyle narrating the story of Johnnie Walker.

    It may be an advertisement but it is also a history lesson.
    I've found that most relationships work best when no one wears pants.

    VERY well done! It's all true, but originally the Haig's were the preeminent blenders, and I'd argue the Dewar's was the masters at advertising. But that's neither here nor there, Carlyle (as always) did a fantastic job!
