Just seen that old "red car and the blue car had a race" Milky Way advert.

WTF? have ad companies totally run out of staff as well as ideas?

I saw it in the hotel room last night and thought I was having a flashback.

Is it my eyes, or have they "aged" the VT for that authentic ye olde adverte look?

I want them to bring back the Cadbury's Fudge ad, but strangely, noone seems supportive of my idea...

why have they changed the lyrics from "...looking for a chocolate treat fluffy and light 'Cos he knows it won't spoil his appetite" to "...looking for a chocolate treat fluffy and light 'Cos he knows it's something tha tastes just right"?

Damn brakes, you beat me to it, my missus was complaining like crazy about them changing the lyrics to a more P.C. version.

Seems funny that 15 years ago they marketed chocolate to fill your appetite, and now they do it to be light and not spoil it.

Werent originals "just right for his appetite"?
