Roast Lamb B'tard who is holding his mother captive.

Mr.Crinklewood

This ****er is pissing me off . Holding his mother captive and making her record dead baby sheep recipes.

Only seems to let her out once a year.

He keeps cooking the same dish for his family knowing what went on after the recording stopped

You might have a point, perhaps she is dead.....and that isn't lamb.

JustAThought

Y - I heard this today and nearly crashed the car. Seriously creepy pointless ad.

Does he only ring his mother once a year? For food?
Total wierdo. What does he eat the other 364 days - his lego?

EmmetSpiceland

He really should really get that tape onto a digital “format”.

The TV ad explains it better that the mother is dead and that is a recording. Still creepy though.

I'm off topic, but your phrasing reminds me of Pat Kenny this morning. There was a recorded interview with Molly Martens, in which the interviewer is saying things like "and you became a mother figure to the children and wife figure to him" and then it cut and after a long enough pause Pat Kenny says ".... and then she killed him". How we laughed!

Anyway, who keeps a cassette tape of their mammy and kisses it after mocking her and cooking her crap recipes.

Watch the bit he plays the tape... the play button isn't actually pressed down as a cassette plays.
Millennial ad folk clearly have no idea how one works.

Aglomerado

Baa'stard. Also lamb is rank. I've seen the ad but don't remember what it's even for!
Edit: scrolled up. Fcuk off Tesco.

The radio version is inexplicably weird, unless you see the TV version. Awful production decision to do that.

And no auld wan in 1995 (think that's what the tape says) would have used that much garlic.

He can only cook one dish, and apparently he does it every year.
He must be as thick as mince if he can't remember how to cook it.
And I'm sure RTE love the advert, the dead mother talking to her child.

Tubs will probably have the bearded git on the LLS.

Y - and the tape would never have been stored without its box - grease and humidity in a kitchen would kill it.

Garlic didn’t exist in the 198’s and that plate is a dud - it would have been a willow patttern plate. That green yoke is fake retro and only for millenials and avoca heads. Shoot the director, art director and radio producers.

Is 'his mum' the same voice over artist who was telling us to stay at home in the Covid adverts recently?

Tails142

When I heard it on the radio I thought the bit of her voice on the end was that she was on a tablet/zoom call because of Covid parrotting the aul crap they used to say when he was a boy. Now having seen the ad the whole dead mother casette recording is weird AF.

I think it is, and I think she was also a fan of wiltshire farm foods home deliveries.
I also think bearded dude in the bord bia ad eats people.
Beards = cannibalism

Honourable mention to Brady Family ham, and writing that EXCEPTIONAL jingle to the tune of ‘come out ye black n tans’

Whoever came up with that should be hung, drawn and quartered and fed to the Brady family pigs.

Yep. She died alone. In perpetual isolation.
Hence the recording.

Watching it does not make less weird.

My Granny long deceased used to put garlic in everything.

Had wild garlic growing at the back door in summer and used to use the dried packet garlic at other times.

This was in the 80s. Not sure when fresh garlic bulbs in shops became widely available.

Hande hoche!

The secret is that the mother in the Tesco ad is the wife from this one and the kid, Arthur, who's 'got plenty' is the bastard listening to the tape.

Everyone else is chained up in his basement being kept alive on a thin gruel of liquidised lamb and pork.

Definitely a whiff of alcohol fueled domestic violence off that ad. But that delicious British pork makes everything ok. Everything's going to be ok.....


/Clicking sound of a fresh bottle of vodka being opened.....

Sentimentality levels nearly as bad as your average Barry's Tea ad.

Domestic violence?

I remember being in a restaurant with a girl back in the the mid-00s, and she stabbed a slice of red onion with her fork and looked a bit queasy and said "what is THAT?" Thought she was joking, and I said "red onion??"and she looked a bit disapproving like, "nah, can't be having that"

I think some people didnt have red onion growing up? Or apparently garlic.
