    I actually quite like this advert *looks sheepish*

    It’s just another case of the growing trend of making one identical advert for loads of different territories, hence the lack of any kind of dialogue. It’s been shown time and time again that the British consumer reacts to witty, well thought out adverts. (E.g. Tango, Boddington’s etc) This will be completely forgotten within weeks.

    Not quite sure how this advert got a mention on ‘tvs worst adverts’ – my husband and I fall about laughing whenever this advert comes on…….a fantastic few seconds of mindless light hearted entertainment….thanks Mars for this one!

    Hi Gaynor,

    It’s “Jump Around” by House of Pain.

    You can find it here on YouTube.

    Sally, you and your husband fall around laughing when this advert comes on?

    Really? Do you really, actually?

    Disturbing.

    I actually like this advert. I can’t explain why – I just think the idea of monks eating a Mars bar and then jumping up and down on the bell ropes is funny! Not because it’s side splitting but because it’s random. :)
