I'm starting to warm to the fuzzy blue aliens but I am puzzled by this conundrum; why dont their necks break?

I'm assuming different musculature due to a different gravitational constant on their home planet. Alternatively, a far less dense cranial structure, requiring less support. Any ideas?

Could it be that the large cranial cavity is filled with helium?

As they aren't real. I don't let the irrational physics of their fictional existence worry me.

rob - could you just clarify what you mean please?

Do you believe there are no blue aliens?

I may well believe there are blue aliens.

I choose to believe those blue aliens are not them.

I don't get this advert.
Is the shitness of the aliens supposed to be ironic or something? Together with the bad scripting and plot and the hammy omnipresent Bill Nighty doing the voice of the Dad, it makes my piss boil.

is it Caroline Quentin uttering the disturbing "mmm bieber"?

On another note, for omnipresent voiceovers, see Robert Webb.

They're only there because Richard E Grant was getting too expensive.

Why do they feebly sing '..walking in the air' at the end of the ad? My piss remains at body temperature.

That makes me smile.

I'm assuming different musculature due to a different gravitational constant on their home planet.

So did they bring that gravitational constant with them?

Still think that female one is out of order saying "mmmm Beiber"

Why?

Bieber looks less human than they do so it could be that he's one of them that has a very good makeup artist

Drac, there are no humans in the ad, it's filmed by the aliens and then sent to earth for the voiceover/translation to be dubbed on so we can understand it.

There were some in the queue or was this green screen trickery?

Green screen trickery.

In fact, the USB adaptor was specifically developed to allow this sort of intergalactic co-operation to take place....that's why the U stands for Universal

I'm surprised that some sap at the Guardian hasn't written a column claiming that it's racist yet. The one that appeared in the wake of those meercat adverts was hilarious and funnier still when people realised that it wasn't a joke.

On surgical investigation I have discovered the neck structures of the 'blue' aliens is in fact different in molecular construction to the 'pink' variety.

Thus they are able to perform much more strenuous actions of movement.

I hope this helps 😉
