It's still irritating me (I know I know I need to get a life), but it seems so unfair!
Both teams were rubbish and both products were pants, but the Octi-kleen advert was actaully offensive. To both women and men.
Christopher should have been fired over that. Definitely.

Problem is that, because of the show format, one team HAS to win so that they can fire someone from the losing team.
You couldn't have a draw. I think that's the only reason either one of them got through.
I used to work in the advertising industry and believe me the laughter and giggling from the ad agency staff said it all. Both teams were beyond sh**e!
S5, by contrast, had more creativity - they had the Body Rocka, Treasure Flakes and the sandalwood soap that could have been a winning product had they not overspent (OK, so they also had Pants Man, but even that was more creative than what they came up with last night).
Hopefully next episode will be better - for competence as well as incompetence!
I think they are a lot weaker candidates this year. I can't see anyone yet that I can see is really outstanding in any way. But it's still not affecting my enjoyment, I love watching them dig big holes for themselves and see their smugness battered out of them!!
Unfortunately giving the so-called *winning team* a karaoke night, didn't knock any smugness from them, from the way they were singing We Are The Champions! Smugness remains. booo
Thought putting the actress in an octopuss outfit was totally ridiculous but boy did she look so hot and yummy in the advert, esp her curvy legs. Didn't think she was that shapely at fisrt sight.
When they showed the finished ad, right at the very end where the girl has her head laid on his chest, did anybody else think she didn't look very lifelike? I thought she looked like a blow up doll! And she wasn't even looking at him, she was just staring straight ahead. She really didn't look at all comfortable snuggling up to him.
I still think the best ad was from a couple of years back when they had to advertise an airline and showed that bloke writhing around in pleasure on the seat. It was meant to show him relaxing and enjoying himself, but unfortunately it looked like he was doing something completely different!
"Ooooh, I can't - get rid of - this - graavayyyyyyyy"
"Move over!"
"Woowwwwwww!"
And then we have:
"Do you wanna have an early night?" :cool:
"Ooh. This-would-be-so-much-easier-with-eight-hands"
"Eight hands are definitely better than two."
For fondling Christopher all over whilst cooing dirty, dirty, dirty sexual suggestions.....
Oh, was that just me?
Though I have to say, what to do you expect for 2 days work? Gonna take a lot longer than that to get anything looking good for the tv.
An opportune time to update you all a bit on this one. The Body-Rocka is moving more towards a finished product, and Phil Taylor is to be involved in it. You may recall I noticed that FreemantleMedia Ltd had registered both bodyrocka.co.uk & bodyrocka.com last year, and also registered it as a trademark. Well Phil became a Director of a new company, Rocka Fitness Limited (07376572) in October 2010, and FreemantleMedia have updated both the web sites to reflect this.
Good luck to him, credit where it's due!
4 hands are better than 2 - get off your backside you lazy git and go and help your wife in the kitchen
so it's possible and would have made good viewing indeed
he should have actually not given them a "reward", if karaoke is a reward...!
A very good point. They don't get long enough time to come up with a decent idea and then see it through.
I kept thinking she looked more like a wife you might 'buy' off the internet.
and as for the germinator, why did the dad have a cockney accent and the kid didnt?
The fact that the "Wife" didn't look real was picked up on Your Fired too
I made the point to my hubby though that the kid looked around 10-12 ish and at that age my chore at home was always to clean the bathroom using similar product - it's not as though they used a 5 year old. Although why they didn't have a family type ad with the Mum doing it easily and the Dad not able to and annoying sprog then jumping in with the line I have no idea.
Other team was just apalling
Ah yeah I was just saying what I would've said had I been in the boardroom
Me too, especially after Stella made such a big deal about not wanting to wear that bikini. I think that Alex's team should've won, the Octikleen ad was cringey .
