And just about any of the rest of this series of ads.

Here in the states we don't get many racy ads like you people get accross the pond. Damn FCC... :evil:

This the greatest advert (never aired) on TV for Guiness. It's a thing of beauty!

I have a one weiner rule when engaging in such affairs. The only way that might happen was if there was a bottle of tequila on her back.

NEVER! I'm having another go!

I think this advert is quite well known, but it never hit the TV screens in the UK. I'm unsure about the US?

You know, if I were going to post again in this thread, that Mastercard one would be the one I would have posted. It is definitely a contender although it is not a genuine advert as far as I know. It is awesome though :lol:

Well for starters, the YouTube video title has 'parody' in it but also:

http://theinspirationroom.com/daily/200 ... -proposal/

"The Mastercard Indecent Proposal ad was written, directed and produced in 2001 by Scott Quigley as a student project at Los Angeles Film School. Director of photography was Brandon Trost. Editor was Omar Inguanzo.

Actors in Mastercard Indecent Proposal were Matt Prater (boyfriend), Joy Christie Di Crese (girlfriend) and Marla Altschuler (sister)."

Ah, ok. I guess if I knew what the word 'parody' meant i would be able to answer my own question.

Leaving school at 16 has some disadvantages I guess!
