Y'know, I'm a big a fan of M&S food as anyone. They really do some lovely stuff and yes, it's a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. That said, if they show that bloody Summer Foods advert one more time, I'm not going to be responsible for my actions :P
And while I'm bitching about adverts, can we shoot the marketing execs that thought the Clover adverts were a great idea? "Churned with love", eh? Oh please! *reaches for sick bag* Trust me, a teenage boy isn't going to be inspired to look round at his family with tears in his eyes because he's got a bloody baked potato for dinner. He's more likely to whine "Is this it? A naffin' baked potato?!"
I do, however, adore the Maltesers one with the two ladies in the glass walled office. *snickers*

I mean, the M&S one is just... boring. Lacking in creative thought. Lacking in... objective!
And Clover is just... ewww! I mean, that's like a 5 year old kid was hired to do the advert and got real creative.
I bet, I just bet, both those advertisements were compromise adverts. That is, head office idiots decided 'oh that's too risque', or 'you know, I'm not sure it says anything about what we do'. Instead of actually, you know, creating something interesting, they decide to go all committee.
Bah!

Oh, and feel free to add that the whole concept is ridiculous and so sappy, they should give out free insulin with every tub churned. I should add, in fairness, that Clover is my spread of choice right now and I reckon they're doing the product a disservice with that advert.
