Never under estimate the power of tits in advertising.

YAWN!!!... Sorry, Sean. Anyway, it's about the comment not the person.

Any variation on "you posted anonymously therefore your opinion is invalid" is now the most tedious thing you could possibly write on this messageboard. It's also a pretty lazy way of dismissing perfectly valid criticisms of the ad.

Personally, I'm absolutely astonished that this won.

It's, to use a technical term, a "bag o' shite"

I'm always suspicious of these obscure industry competitions where voting is thrown open to the 'general public'. In fact, as we all know, rather than a straight creative shoot out it simply becomes a way of seeing how committed each agency is to mobilising staff/clients/relatives to vote for their ad. Nobody will convince me that isn't exactly what happened here.

So well done to RBH for getting the vote out. It's just a shame that such a resolutely average piece of work is now flying the flag for regional creativity.
