I saw two adverts on TV tonight that I haven't seen before.

Both were hilarious.

First was the Boddingtons advert, "How to survive a shark attack". The cow (can't remember his name) is underwater with his pint, and it goes through lots of methods to prevent the shark nicking the pint.

Funniest parts are: (a) where the voiceover says "try to scare the shark"; the cow blows a raspberry and bubbles rise to the surface. (b) the little fish that gets slapped at the end of the advert.

Second advert was a new KitKat advert, where the dog is wearing a 'lampshade' collar/cone and trying to play with a squeaky toy. Cruel, but very funny.

Anyone else seen them? Got any favourites of your own?

I don't tend to watch tele much but you can't deny the power of Budweiser and their amazing ads. If it's not that catchy tune it's the WHASSSSSSSSUP and if it's neither of them it's either the Chameleons or the 'Foot long hot dog inventor'. They are just classic and humerous, although they don't tend to have anything to do with the drink, anyone else noticed that no car advert mentions about the car rather about something else?

I've seen the Kitkat one and before they even showed the signs Kitkat I knew what it was about, typical, cruel but funny. My favoutire has got to be the Budweisers with the chameleons or however you spell it.
