Bet365.uk Japanese Man
- March 17th, 2009
Football fans who regularly tune into live TV games via satellite and cable cannot have failed to notice the advertisements for bet365.ukand ask themselves “Isn’t that the Japanese bloke from Last of the Summer Wine? I’m sure it is.”
It’s an entertaining piece of animation mixed with live footage of the ‘Japanese Man from Last of the Summer Wine’ announcing the overwhelming array of in-play betting markets to choose from such as ‘total goals’, ‘number of corners’, ‘correct score’, etc. etc. The advertisement is witty, clever, and original, and must be working wonders for Bet365.uk as it seems to be shown alongside just about every live game on TV, week in – week out.
Sadly, there is a distinct absence of the Japanese man when you arrive at the website, but the in-play betting experience is very good. And it isn’t just football betting on offer; you can bet in-play on just about all available markets, and with some you get live video coverage too, which is incentive enough to join in the fun. If there is no live coverage the in-play experience is still pleasant, with little sound effects here and there such as crowds cheering when a goal is scored or a fanfare when a point is won in a basketball game. It kind of adds to the atmosphere.
However, I would still like to be greeted by the ‘Japanese man from Last of the Summer Wine’ when I log in, just to see his cheery face and brighten my day. www.bet365.uk
