K.F.C.

Post by brian c »

I don't know if you have the same TV adds up north as we do in the south but has anybody seen the KFC advert with the call centre girls stuffing their mouths full of food and then trying to talk.


Not a good role model for kids. :!: :x :x

Yes we have it up here Brian, it is a complete turn off and I'm sure it will have a negative effect on the product they are trying to sell. However the advertising experts say there is no such thing as bad publicity and even negative advertising draws attention to the product. WHAT A LOAD OF TOSH. It seems the TV advertising people have had hundreds of complaints about it. :roll:

Nothing wrong with the product Derek. The only thing I've got against K.F.C. is the fact that the nearest one to us is too far away. I'm typing this with my mouth full; hope you can understand me.

I can't decide whether to save for a trip to England first or USA. By the sounds of it, it won't make a lot of difference. I could even stay home and just enjoy the KFC and starbucks from here. LOL

Well, that's not quite true, Derek, now is it. I'm in the USA and so are a few others that post here too!

ROFL marra. We have a few like that here in our papers,too.I often wonder why the editor picks their stuff day after day and leaves others out.
We could save a fortune in politician's wages, just hire these letter writers as they already have all the answers.
