i see gilette have resurfaced the old "the best a man can ge-e-et" song, but for some reason voiced by someone who sounds spanish and doesn't speak english and is doing it phonetically from memory?
I thought they Bud Lite-ed themselves a few years ago. I guess they’ve gone back to basics in the hope people have forgotten by now.

What is going on with the Andrex adverts lately?

The latest one with the man in the toilets, who is it at the production company that thinks they are a good idea and signs them off to be put out on air?

One for Bold, a plump teenage girl gets a new dress, holds her phone out in front of her like a slice of pizza to tell her friends, spills milkshake over it, then gives it to her mum who is an over weight poc lady to put it in the wash.

They seem to have ticked all of the boxes as it were, they could have gone full house if it was a boy putting on the dress (I might suggest that to them, but I'll want a consultancy fee)
Did you shout "bingo"?

I don't think the daughter is plump at all. Mum on the other hand is simply obese.
But whatever we may think of the actresses in this ad we can both marvel at the masterly reworded cover version of Spandau Ballet's Gold

Indeed, an Ivor Novello award must surely await the rewriters.

All Clear.
They've started drinking before the plane has even reached the runway (*) . I hope they've declared their alcoholism to the insurance company.

  • Yes, I know it's not allowed.

No one is ever that happy about an insurance product either. Vomit inducing!

Unrelated but why do insurance companies ask for feedback and ratings when you'll never ever know until you actually make a claim.
