Is it only me that thinks this cat has a lisp?

Damn awful advert, bit creepy too, but when I do catch it, that one with the tabby cat and the budgie, I do think that the cat seems to have a lisp.

Not audible, obviously, as it's a voice/sing over type thing, but the way his lips move, especially on the word "destiny" confused

Count me in as a lover of the ad, I always pre-record progs and whizz through the ads and trailers...except this one.
But yes,Phoenix, I knew as soon as I read your topic title what you were talking about!
Lispy animations I love, my prob is with people paid to speak clearly who can't/don't deliver due to speech problems-looking at you, Chris Packham, Michael Mosley-and from days of yore,Toyah.Not a great example to the wee ones on,"Teletubbies"!

Lisp? A lisp is nothing...that budgie is a boy and he doesn't sound right at all!

(Blue nostrils on a healthy budgie mean 'male'. Girl budgies only go blue round the nostrils if they are unwell)
