Charity campaigns often strike a somber tone. But Tearfund and Don’t Panic prove a delightful exception to the rule, as our hapless narrator just can’t get anything right.

Shaken Udder, ‘Do What Makes You Happy’
In this entertaining spot by Quiet Storm, a stern judge gets ridiculously rhythmic after sipping his milkshake. Gripping a gavel and ballpoint pen, the dude goes full Phil Collins, leaving the courtroom in awe.
