    Are you suggesting the weird vowel sounds of Lloyd Grosman are annoying?

    Never!

    Nope, I love it! I find most tv adds annoying in many ways but the fact he's prepared to take the p!ss out of his 'unique' accent is refreshing (IMO of course!).

    ..but a well made, funny advert, relevant to the public's perception of the product and the brand name.

    I like it, you only have to actually listen to him for like 2 words! Some of the best sauces out there too...

    It would have been awful, but cutting as Lloyd himself speaks makes it ok

    100 euro says the last lady in the ad is Irish.
    Am I right or am I right?

    There are many far more annoying ads out there than that one. That ad's actually ok.

    No it's the underlying accent, much more apparent on the TV version of the ad.

    Spot on. She must have dropped a bit of Irish in there with the Canadian.

    From her website.
