I've just spent the past five minutes cackling over an advert and I'm curious as to whether anybody else here from the UK has seen it. I personally don't watch TV but I'm sure as hell glad I didn't miss this one, my eyes nearly fell out of my head when I saw what was on the screen.

It's title is "Goth Holiday" and it's for the drink Irn Bru. The idea behind it is that after drinking Irn Bru four mopey goths turn their black lipstick frowns upside down and decide to take a holiday to the seaside resort of Blackpool, complete with rollercoaster rides and surfing. You can watch it here. Now, personally, I think it's genius. Especially "the Crow" in the beginning.

Opinions? wink

Not from the UK, but that was a VERY inventive use of a coffin lid.
I'll admit, it did make me giggle a bit. sweatdrop

lol When it cuts to the first smiling goth, he kind of reminds me of Ronald McDonald because his lipstick is so far off his lips, and his face is all white. xd

It's just a commercial as far as I can see. Irn Bru have used quite a few interesting and unique adverts over the years, I'm assuming this is just another brilliant ad from them. Wait, what am I saying? JUST another ad? xd Definitely the best I've seen, I am thoroughly amused.

I haven't seen the advertisement (I don't live in the UK).

I am however very fond of IRN-BRU (being the Scot that I am). I was introduced to it in April, when I was in the UK for a couple of weeks.

rofl That was great. ^_^

And what's wrong with loving your roller coasters? *huggles my roller coasters..then watches ceilisidhe turn bright green* Well, I love my coasters without my love since it's kindof like torture for him.

Coffin lid surfering.... that really should become a classic.
