Walkers Baked Bean Farting Ad'

[Wee Kaz]

What do you lot think of the Walkers Baked Beans Ad? Personally I think it's hillarious! Who's faces do you like the best? My favs are Ian Wright and Kate Winslet, they're a scream!

its annoying! trying to be funny but not quite succeeding.

They appeal to my level of humour. If you have a willing partner and plenty of fibre, try fart tennis, its hysterical

I don't like it - I know we're all terribly modern and ironic and in touch with our bodies and all that guff, but having spent a large part of my adult life trying to educate my children (and now my grand-daughter) into notions of acceptable behaviour, I feel this undermines basic manners in pursuit of a cheap laugh. Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I'll live with it!

I agree totally with Andy - It can wipe out years of training children what is and is not acceptable behaviour. I have to say that if I was about 7 or 8 years old I would probably die laughing, but lavatorial humour does nothing for me now. It's a shame because I usually like the Walkers ads - despite what people say about Gary Lineker, he's not bad in it!

Apart from comloulou I think you are all taking the ad too seriously. At the end of the day it's only an advert and a funny one at that. I understand the thinking behind teaching your kids manners and everything but just because people are farting on the TV doesn't mean to say that all kids are going to copy them. Look at the domestic abuse ads, the RSPCA ads, do you see people going out harming animals just because they've seen it in an advert? I think it's good harmless fun and it appeals to my sense of humour.
