Socks make an advert

The Scottish Falsetto Socks have made their debut as stars of an advertising campaign, soon to be coming to a screen near you. (Update: they're now available, here). Courtesy of Conservatory Insulation Specialists, Earth's funniest footwear are soon to be seen extolling the virtues of conservatory roof insulation in a series of comedy sketches in their inimitable style.

Produced by singer songwriter Dean Friedman, who you'll know from his hit singles including Lucky Stars, Ariel, Lydia, McDonalds Girl and many more, and who has also written the jingle for the adverts, the short funny films look at different things conservatory roof insulation can do for your home.

For example in Once In A Blue Moon (top image, where you'll see one Sock is reading a copy of Prince Harry's Spare, with an interesting back cover image) they find how conservatory roof insulation can enable you to use your conservatory all year round. In Blinded By The Light (image above, where one Sock sports a fetching pair of shades) they solve the problem of the conservatory that lets in too much light. And in Room For The Whole Family (image below) they look at how you can gain an extra useable room in one simple move.

Dean Friedman, whose other work has included designing the video game Eat A Bug, writing the influential Complete Guide To Synthesisers, Sequencers & Drum Machines, and providing the music for movies and TV shows including Boon, Eerie Indiana, and I Bought A Vampire Motorcycle, has co-written, directed and produced the new adverts, ensuring they're of a higher finished quality than that to which viewers of the Socks' YouTube videos might have become accustomed.

The adverts for Conservatory Insulation Specialists will be appearing soon. In the meantime, both the Scottish Falsetto Socks and Dean Friedman are on tour in the UK, so don't miss them.
