Is Richard Curtis having a firesale on the rights to Love, Actually? A mere few weeks after Waitrose debuted its Keira Knightley ad (which featured her bonding with everyman Joe Wilkinson over the cheese counter, no less), Google has rolled out its own take on the film, this time in an advert starring none other than Thomas Brodie-Sangster and Martine McCutcheon.
Be warned: it is breathtakingly cringe. Filmed (naturally) on the Google Pixel camera, we see Brodie-Sangster sitting on a park bench overlooking the River Thames. He is there. What is not there: Liam Neeson, which immediately makes this whole thing about 10 per cent more disappointing.
