I've not seen it, but I do find the Newcastle Brown "joke" adverts totally moronic.  They're trying to make the point that it's not to everybody's taste, but their so-called jokes would be sneered at by an 8 year old.  If they're going to do bad taste jokes, they should at least make up some good ones.

Grumble.

And don't get me started on that stupid woman on the Tesco's ads...  or Michael "please punch me in the head" Winner...

They played it on the hour every hour on launch day at work. But then I do work in marketing at egg... Have to add (very quickly) that I have nothing to do with the ads. I just build databases and reports for them :roll:

Some adverts are better than the television programmes.

I'd never have guessed ;)

I bet you don't sit on the top of the seats singing and dancing at about 70mph in reverse though.

I couldn't very well say blokes sitting on the seats............. :)
