I have just seen the advert for this cheese and it shows a car with sighs of pleasure coming from it and then a man knocks on the window and watches two people eating it until he gets handed a bit. Now there may not be dogging actually shown in this but to me it refers to it. Why is this not shown after 9pm, any views on this?

I haven't seen it, but from what you say, it sounds like you have a point.

Advertisers do seem to loose the plot occasionally when remembering that their target audience does not live in isolation, and others may be upset by what seems to be the height of wit when you are telling people in red braces in the Met Bar, but is actually casuing awkward questions for a mum of young children in Huddersfield!

You are only going to think they are dogging if you know what dogging is, so as long as the advert doesn't show anything offencive, there may not be any reason to show it late at night.

I haven't seen the ad, but from what you say, it is unlikely to be shown during children's programmes.

If you feel the ad is offencive, you can always write to the Advertising Standards Authority, and they will review the ad. If enough people complain, the ad may well get taken off the air.

Not offensive to me. :-) But I just find it strange that its on at lunch time, when it surely is about dogging.
