Yeah, and I thought is was just me that found those bog-roll ads really weird and a bit creepy.....I really don't want to see some kid going to the loo with his Kandoo paper and pull-up pants....
Bring back the Hamlet adverts..........

I have no trouble with toilet roll ads, and UKTV do this much better.

Maybe they didn't want parents to know that their kids are into violent games. (or pretending to pretend to be violent.)

I cant open the link.
On the lines of banned adverts, I think VW should have aired this one

I find those women's "wings" adverts somewhat distasteful.
I can see why this advert has been banned.
I've discused my views on flippancy regarding fire-arms elsewhere on this site.
What if all the actors had ALL been black and instead of hand-guns, it referred to knives ??
Possibly filmed in a South London shopping-mall ?
