Polaris World - Villas
April 1st, 2008Hoorah! He’s back!
Yes, Jose “I’m more wooden than the Armada” Luis Hernández from Polaris World is back, continuing his staring role in their latest Spanish villas advert:
Now, I’ll be honest with you when I first saw Jose I thought, well, I thought he was a bit of a joke. His ridiculously strong accent, his high waist banded trousers, his bizarre habit of framing his crotch with his hands.
But, unlike Nadine Baggott and Barry Scott, as time has passed, blow me down, but I’ve come to grow fond of old Jose.
And this time he’s clearly been on some kind of media training/presentation course because he’s just so much more relaxed - I swear there’s even a twinkle in his eye.
Of course, he’s still got a body that makes a hat stand look fat and his suit hangs off him like a parachute has just landed on top of him but he’s so adorable don’t you just want to pinch his cheek and ruffle his hair?
Well, maybe not.
Sadly for Jose, of all the things that I’ve been wondering about recently “wondering what the properties in Polaris World actually look like” doesn’t feature very highly on the list.
Good to have you back, though.

I wish Jose Luis Hernandez my uncle was. Although he still hold his arms like he has concrete where his elbow joints should be.

Wow - he’s convincing. I just called and bought 5. His accent is subliminal or something, it makes me want an overpriced condo and sangria.

I think Senor Hernandez is a secret German. Who else would name his company after a missile. See they’re getting everywhere. Still at least Citroen is safe.

I like to think it’s Jose whistling that catchy theme tune!

Nice mention for TWA in the Guardian (10/05/08) - Money section. At least I am not alone in reading your website!

Hey Gordon, yep it was nice.
Being a Guardian reader and a massive fan of Jose (I mean, who isn’t?) I actually read the Money section for a change when I saw his picture. I laughed out loud to see this site quoted!
Now that’s what I call journalism!

Come on ally pay attention at the back the properties are ‘in Moorthia’, or Murcia as the rest of us call it.
