This ad is so bad that even Brand Republic's technology refuses to play it!

Yes, you're right clarence and miis N. Still, let's remember when TV advertising was good. Sorry, I've forgotten! Was it the 80's????

Why have the BACC allowed her to ride without helmet and lights? Naughty Welsh Waubler...

I would really like to rate it Zero stars rather than 1 star... can somebody in BR fix that?

This ad is so duff! This is just another of several bad ads from them. Has Mother lost the spark finally after a decade of being edgy? Are they now more Grandmother these days? They only get away with rubbish like this because their reputation covers it up.

Grandmother indeed! A mundane idea and equally terrible direction. Has Mother completely porned herself over there, on the corner of Bethnal Green Road? Allowing Coke (over creativity) to pull the strings on this latest campaign? Time for a new model of Agency driven by young Creatives from all over the globe. Strictly no room for creative compromise here at Creative Orchestra! www.creativeorchestra.com

Why is Duffy famous? How has she won so many awards? why is she going through a supermarket on a bycicle? Go and check out the "Making of" video here, the planner at Mother talks about Duffy's trip to the supermarket as a revitalising moment! http://www.popjustice.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3502&Itemid=206
