The voiceover for the meerkat adverts in the UK is provided by actor and comedian Alexander Armstrong. He is known for his distinctive voice and has become closely associated with the character of Aleksandr Orlov, the fictional meerkat promoting the Compare the Market comparison website. Armstrong's humor and charm have contributed significantly to the popularity of the adverts.

The intention of the Compare the Meerkat advertising campaign was to differentiate itself from its competitors though the use of a play on words. They introduced the character Aleksandr Orlov as a warm, lovable character that was instantly memorable.
Sergei is a very clever meerkat, so he managed to make people want to compare meerkats. Aleksandr has very good advertising skills, so people want to compare meerkats even more! Also because it makes 'compare the muskrat' seem awful
I hope so!!! :D Apparently there was 2 films supposed to come out- one of them in April 2010 and one in August 2010- both based on the compare the meerkat story. But obviously not. I really love compare the meerkat too! I really hope there is one; sorry i couldn't really help you i am trying to find the same thing out too!!!<3 SIMPLES *mwfftt*
No, Simon Greenall is the voice of the meerkat Aleksandr Orlov.
Aleksandr Orlov originated from the Russian mountains and travelled across Europe to get to Britain before creating his own website called compare that Meerkat. He couldn't of done this without his partner Sergei.
The number of Compare the Meerkat adverts that air on television in one hour can vary significantly depending on the network and time slot. Typically, advertisers might air multiple spots within that hour, often ranging from 2 to 5 adverts. However, during peak viewing times or special events, this number could be higher. For the most accurate count, one would need to observe a specific channel during a specific hour.
Simples !
I've made some Aleksandr look-a-like toys and I'm selling them on eBay as a charity fundraiser. Just enter Aleksandr Meerkat Compare the Meerkat to see if you like them. The only official Aleksandr the meekat talking dolls have been commissioned by Harrods. All of these are being donated to selected children's charities including the Evelina Children's Hospital at Guy's and St Thomas' hospital. This charity will be giving almost all the toys to children who have to stay in hospital over Christmas but a very limited number will be auctioned on Ebay to raise vital funds for specialist equipment at the Evelina Children's Hospital that will benefit many hundreds of sick children. To bid for one of these official Aleksandr toys search under "Limited Edition Aleksandr the Meerkat" on eBay.co.UK
Aleksandr doesn't have a surname (as of yet; nobody can tell what the scriptwriters may come up with).
