I would normally be supportive of these types of debates. However, my family and I actually appear in some ads at the moment, so the vain side of me loves them

Well, you live in the right area of Australia to see them that's for sure.

If you have young kids then you are very likely to see them

Thanks for all the replies, had a right good laugh reading them . Just remembered a penile erectile dysfunction one as mentioned above. NEARLY DIED OFF when I saw it as it was so unexpected (ha ha no pun intended!) - think it was on in the afternoon and you saw a middle aged wifey in her dressing gown walking into the kitchen and she couldn't reach something so shouted for her husband to help. He walked in, opened his dressing gown and she stood on his erection while some awful porn type music was playing in the background. OMG too funny!! If that was played in the UK in the afternoon there'd be outrage!
