Iv'e only seen it twice and think it is very funny, i, like many other people take very little notice of adverts, this one got my attention. I have not had this food for many years but will probably buy it soon. As for influencing children, i for one have no worries as mine know the difference between reality and TV. |

We really should protect our kids from the horror of these adverts. Just imagine : Iif they see the McVities one they'll grow up thinking it's OK to drop crumbs; If they see the More Than insurance advert they'll think it's OK to let your dog drive the car as long as it's called Lucky; Surely after the Oxy Action (or whatever its called) advert kids everywhere will be running to smear their clothes with beetroot God forbid they ever bring bag the Milky Bar adverts or every blond haired kid with glasses will think they have a chance of being the next sheriff. Never mind though, at least the Tampax adverts will prepare young girls for the excitement of roller skates. |

It's a disgusting advert. It certainly won't make me visit KFC. |

I agree with Daniel and like I said on a previous thread: Anyone's kids who behave badly due to an advert need to learn how to discipline their children and stop letting them watch so much tv! |

Sorry Daniel I have to disagree. Most parents teach their children to eat with their mouth closed, but if younger children watch this advert and see these people eating with their mouth open, they might not realise its meant to be joke and think its ok to eat like they do in the advert. Just my humble opinion. |

I thought it ws funny when I saw it and watched it the way it how it was meant to be - as a joke. Parents can tell their children to eat with their mouth closed despite this advert. I think parents have a stronger influence on their kids than one single advert. Mountain and Molehill spring to mind. |

I absolutely hate the advert. Most parents spend time teaching their children not to eat with their mouth full and then this comes on the T.V. |

I understand it was approved by the BACC? What are they on I wonder. I think those of us that don't like it should complain to them and maybe we can get it removed. Power to the people, :-) Margaret |

I don't like it at all and can't see the point of why they chose to use that kind of scenario. I don't eat KFC and this ad no way encourages me to want to try it. Margaret |

I think it is terrible, you try to teach your children to eat with their mouths shut and not too talk with their mouths full. i think it should be removed from the TV. kaz x |
