Little help needed in argument over an irish ad

    Ok so i've been having this ongoing argument with a friend over what is actually being said in this ad. The ad is the one for moro where there are 3 guys at a wedding, one of them is eating the moro and looks like hes flirting with everyone. At the end of the ad one of the other friends mother winks at the guy eating the moro, then the friend says "that my ma" and then the 3rd guy says something. What does he say?

    I'm of the opinion he says "Dorothy" as in the name of the mother. My friend thinks he is saying "Dirty" as in his friend is sick for flirting with his friends mother.

    What do yous hear? I know its a stupid argument but we are both like a dog with a bone, and it keeps coming up everytime we meet up. So i'd like to get it resolved. If you haven't seen it do you know where I could go to find maybe the script of the ad?

    Definetely hear "dirty" myself. Makes sense to me for the same reasons as your mate.

    I hear the other guy saying Dorothy, like he fancied her as well

    I agree with Snake Plisken, he definately says Dorothy! He is even looking at her like he fancies her too.

    Are you all crazy? He definitely says Dorothy! Look at the way he is looking at her too.

    Why would the other guy have to inform him that it is his mother if he already knows her name?

    It's Dirty.

    Goddamit. Why can't life be simple. I just watched it again and I can clearly hear him say Dorothy. If it is Dirty, he is saying it in some weird accent. Plus the expression on his face isn't one of a person thinking something is dirty. Why isn't there a website where you can get ad scripts (admittedly this really would be a niche website) sheesh!!

    I cann't beleive that someone complained about this add but at least they did since we get to see what is say in the add.

    DIRTY. QED.


    I have to much time on my hands. :)

    *slumps shoulders*

    I just came across that article myself. I can't believe i'm going to have to accept defeat on this. I needed to prove my friend wrong as he keeps saying "Durrtee" everytime he see or thinks of something... well Dirty, and its starting to get really irritating. Proving him wrong on this would make him stop because he would actually be repeating the word "Dorothy" off the ad...

    Game over :(

    Ye it is Dirty,don't see how anyone could hear it as Dorothy,it makes no sense in the context of the ad.

    And what is wrong with people who complain about things like this? Get a life!

    Ok it's not the funniest add in the world but get a sence of humour.

    There are more important things to be complaining about.

    Case closed!
