In the advert with Vernon Kay

[tamaris]

and his mother for spray oil, why did they take his comment out ' I am 30 with 2 kids' ?

[boxtops]

perhaps because he had a bit of spat with his wife - how do you know they took it out?

[Jemisa]

I wondered that too tam.
Lets hope you get an answer...

Because I saw it when it first came on TV

Many ads are edited for time reasons (basically pay less because it is shorter). That may be why.

bcause he's not 30?? he's 37

[tamaris]

Thanks Jem x

[pips1]

Is she really his mum?

[tamaris]

Maybe we never know LOL

[tamaris]

No idea, but I would say so

[boxtops]

yes, it's his mum http://www.marketingw...g-oil/3024558.article

ha says I'm 36! and I've got two kids. he's 37 now nearly 38, maybe vernan wanted them to take it out

[tamaris]

You are right it was 36

[devilspawn]

not sure on the answer, but apparently the spray is fab and very good to use instead of oil in frying if you are looking after your weight...

Flora isn't a spray (in the advert, never used it or felt the need to). 1 Calis a spray and has been around longer.

[tamaris]

It was more about his words being taken out than the oil

As the ad is quite old the age info may have become out of date. Besides I'm not sure it was a vital part of the ad and maybe they wanted to shave off a second or two

Advertising time is sold in predetermined slots, usually 30-seconds, but also 60 and 15-second spots are not uncommon.
Although this ad may have been shorted, it will most likely to be to accommodate a longer end caption, but the add will still be 30-seconds.
They can't buy a 28-second add spot.
