[TWR]

Isn't it about time they pulled the bloody ad?

[Mamyalynne]

Well, I mean ........tut!!

[Baldric]

Can't recall it, what's wrong with it?

[Mamyalynne]

Everything!!

[Cloverjo]

What's wrong with it?

[Baldric]

No lookalike

///We couldn’t take the easy option of filming a lookalike and disguising mismatched nuances through shadows and camera angles because, first, Audrey was the absolute star of the show///

[Mamyalynne]

a) It's been going on for ever.

b) She looks spooky.

c) Can't think cos I don't watch ads.

[Mamyalynne]

I only ever see it on here, too often.

[Patsy33]

When my husband sees it he says, " More meat on a butcher's knife!".... ( Hepburn lookalike)

[DSJ]

It's so much nicer than 75% of ads on TV.

[TWR]

One of a few that gets Muted.

[TWR]

Dive, that'a another that gets Muted, bloody stupid.

I liked the Galaxy one at first but it's on every ad break for about a year, so am sick of it now.

[Cloverjo]

They put an awful lot of time into making the ad, so I guess they don't want to cancel it yet.

TWR - if you record all the programmes you want to watch, then you can fast forward through the ads. I haven't watched any for ages.

[TWR]

It's the OH that's the telly person Helly, I prefer to be doing something.

[lankeela]

Wonder if it cost a fortune to use the film footage so they are getting their money's worth? I don't mind it, in fact I keep meaning to watch the film to see what she really does when she eats the chocolate in the ad!

[lankeela]

I also find the dancing builders ad disgusting and distasteful. Especially the bloke in the shorts sticking his bum out.
