Default That bloody ad for Inghams Chicken

Am watching Family Guy and just saw an ad for Inghams Chicken something-or-others. Kievs, I think. Whatever has garlic and stuff inside. Anyway, the word "bloody" seems to be used quite a bit, and it's done quite humourously, I thought.

But I'm curious about one thing. Has anyone else seen this ad and does it appear to anyone else as a ИИИИ-take on the dramas that came from the 'Where the bloody hell are you?' ad?

You know, all the uproar about the word 'bloody', and then this ad for chicken seems to throw as much emphasis on poor language, mostly the word 'Bloody', and it just seems like it's a direct attempt to stir people up.

Perhaps why the first time I've seen it is so late at night.

Funny stuff though, I thought it was a good ad. Starts off with the mother picking up her daughter from school and ends at the dinner table. You'll know it when you see it.

Haven't seen the ad, but feel the need to go off topic a bit. Inghams chicken, I went to tafe with a bloke who used to work for them. He said the room where they stuck up the chickens to go through the process to become frozen chooks used to get pretty dirty and at the end of each day they would hose it out. Some seagulls would hang about and get washed up too and also stuck in system. Of course all the small chickens and seagulls would be rejected and thus would become the bits that are used for those frozen chicken fillets and snitzhels etc. So next time you eat their chicken just have a think and wodner if this story is true............

My dad worked as an electrician at Steggles, and before he eats any chicken meal, he always asks where the chicken came from, he refuses to eat it at all. Some of the stories he used to come home with, : Hasn't eaten KFC for years, though im not sure if they still use Steggles. He hasnt worked at Ingham's, and Im guessing he dosn't want to so he wont have to give up eating there chickens as well!
