go compare ad ?

[berty bassett]

i know it doesn't sound a very bikey question , but does anyone know where the new go compare add is filmed - i am hoping someone recognises the roads - and if they live near them they are very lucky bunnies indeed ! what lovely scenery . they are driving on left and i know they say going home and suppose to be in wales but it could be anywhere really . i am hoping it is this country as i would love to think it possible to get to this area

To be honest it does look like a lot of roads in Wales. Roads going towards Barmouth on the west coast, Dolgellau, devils bridge, snowdonia, brecon beacons take your pick. There are so many roads in Wales that look like that. Or it could be none of them.

At least they've stopped that tw*t singing! But I still get the tune in my head when I see the advert....

He's being joined by his dad, (Blakey, AKA Smiler) at home. Just think, two two of them singing!

To save folks the pain of watching the thing, some snapshots:

Nice bit of coast...

Forested hillside

Another nice bridge...

Although the final scene looks a little as if they've photoshopped the village into the middle of the frame...

(and yes, I obviously have too much time on my hands, must get on with work.....!)

Would that be the longest Welsh placename then?

So you can sing along, when they meet again!

Save yourselves the plane fare; Arran has scenery much like that. Can't guarantee the same weather of course .
