    Those adverts annoy me so much! I think the meerkat sounds a bit like Borat.
    Peter: So how many are there? Is it bad? Olivia: Did you eat? Peter: Yeah. Olivia: Well, that's unfortunate.

    Is this just a website for a laugh? Seems pretty weird. Like the Meerkat adverts though, haven't seen them on tv before.
    Thanks CrazyLea

    CHEEKY meerkats have become a top attraction at zoos — after starring in a hit TV show and advert.

    The small mammals lived up to their playful reputations by giving cameramen the run-around during the new series of Meerkat Manor.

    They were snapped climbing over cameras between takes, giving the appearance of directing a scene.

    The soap opera-style show — shot in Africa’s Kalahari Desert and shown on Animal Planet channel — charts the highs and lows of a meerkat family.

    The show’s creator, Caroline Hawkings, said: “These animals reveal such human traits that it’s no surprise they show a natural curiosity about what the documentary crew are up to.”

    Zoos say meerkats have proved favourites thanks to the Comparethemarket.com ad.

    In the commercial, meerkat Aleksandr tells viewers not to get the insurance giant mixed up with his own website comparethemeerkat.com — before delivering his comedy catchphrase “Simples!”.

    David Ross, of Knowsley Safari Park on Merseyside, said: “Our two groups of meerkats were already incredibly popular. But there’s been a huge increase in people gathering around them since the ad kicked in.

    “The children are asking the keepers ‘Which one is Aleksandr?’”
