I’ve added two of the recent Argos advertisements to the site. Both of them are Christmas-themed, with one of them featuring the fantastic Ruby Wax. Interested persons can check out the Ruby Wax advertisement and the one featuring carollers outside Zak’s mansion here.

Thanks to Sue W again for bringing these ads to my attention.

Richard, accompanied by a chimpanzee named Ruby, has appeared in a South African made television advertisement supporting AIDS Awareness and the use of condoms.

In the commercial both actors are propped up against a bar, with REG talking to Ruby about how much they both have in common. Ruby steals the show though by stating that although humans and chimpanzees have much in common, there’s no excuse for humans to act like chimps when it comes to AIDS.

It’s a cool advertisement and you can check it out here.

Thanks to Sue W for letting me know about this one.

Pics of REG from last Thursday’s QI (Quite Interesting) appearance are now on the Temple site, courtesy of Stargazer (and the BBC of course). There’s about 20 pictures all up, but I’ve spread them over 3 pages for those of you with slower connections. I’ll possibly include them in the Picture Gallery section of the site as well – though I’m not 100% decided on that?

Anyway, for now you can check out the pics here. And don’t forget that U.K. fans can still catch a repeat of the programme this coming Thursday on BBC2.

Richard and Olivia attended the Royal Film Performance 2003 – a charity screening of the new film “Master & Commander : Far Side Of The World” at Odeon Leicester Square in central London.

REG plays Zak, an ageing rocker, in a series of British television commercials for Argos.
