Scary advert

[hope_24]

Far too much work to do - so am procrastinating as usual. I thought I would post a link to an advert which will probably be familiar to the Brits, but probably not anyone from other countries. It scared the hell out of me when I first saw it, and I was amused to find I still find it pretty scary. Enjoy! Leave a comment

I remember this one, too. Shiver!

I'm still reluctant to go anywhere near a canal. ;)

Is this a very British joke?

Or were they really showing that? It was one of the scariest thing I have seen in a while - and I like movies like that! Poor children! I'm glad that my only worries learning to swim were sharks in the swimming pool :)

No, it's not a joke - this actually aired. It is generally considered, however, to have been a ludicrously scary advert - ensuring that a generation of children now have an irrational fear of rivers, lakes, canals.......;)
