a toyota add here in NZ nearly got banned Una because of the frequent use of the word 'Bugger'. It started off with a man pushing a number 8 wire fence upright with the utility vehicle. only too much grunt form the engine pushed it right over and about 5 miles of fence was seen to also fall over in the distance...bugger was the response from the farmer. then son is driving aforementioned ute with aforementioned farmer and an attempt is made to resuce bogged cow with rope attached to cows neck. 'gently now son...' MOOOOO!! 'Oh, bugger me.' was the response. a few other scenes occur and a funny add in n' all. aparently people took offence to the word 'bugger' and it was nearly pulled. a later time slot was arranged. offensive stuff really, but then school children using it you see. In the primary school situation...'Paul you silly silly boy! What have you got to say for yourself?' 'ah, bugger. Miss.'
speaking of funny adds and men and cleavages there's an ad here about using the yellow pages to do your shopping. as this chap is looking it up online he is transported into an online world here all the characters are him in different clothes. he goes in to a dept store which conveniently opens for him only and he is served by a whole different hosts of him. he settles on an item and one of him, with glasses on and suit says, 'i'll just have my assistant wrap it for you.' an attractive figured woman suanters past and the next shot we the viewer see, is a snippet of deep ample cleavage which this chappy is also looking down. she leans back to reveal her face, only it's him, in drag. a computer enhancement has his drag face super imposed on a womans body. it's brilliant, it looks so realistic. he reels back in horror and the assistant says, just browsing, with the cleavage still in shot. fits of hysteria ensued when I first saw that add.
I don't recall any swear words in B7, but maybe that was because it was the BBC and one doesn't. then again cancer used '...blond bitch...' to describe soolin. I remember on battle star glactica, ooh eighties flash back...star buck would often say, oh frack...or something like that. Nathan
