Brains Perform Best When They Are Hydrated

I saw this advert on TV last night during the Championship Play-off Semi Finals and sat there in amazement for a minute in a half. Take a look at the advert and tell me what you think:

If people arent familiar with the puppet in question, it’s Brains from Thunderbirds (a Gerry Anderson puppet show from the sixties).

Love it!

    Incredible…Do you think it was mostly puppet work? Or was there a bit of CGI in there?

    @Sam
    Totally CGI. No way even the most talented puppeteer could pull off some of the moves

    @Matt
    Excellent commercial. Thanks for sharing.

    You can defintely see the strings at the beginning but I am not so sure towards the end. Who knows?!

    Who knows? I know. CGI. Don’t doubt me, Fellator.

    Now I have had chance to watch it on TV a few times…I can see about 3 or 4 different puppets, and only a small amount of CGI… :)
