    Have you heard the new ad where the guy is describing the new range of 'craft breads' from Brennans which have pumpkin seeds and nuts? He is doing his usual talk to Old Mr. Brennan and mentions that he had a 'mouthful of seed'.

    I found it very suggestive and wonder what else Old Mr. Brennan puts in his batch loaf?

    Not the first time Old Mr Brennan has put double entendres into those ads :)
    I remember a recorded (in jest) of Auld Mr Brennan being asked the secret of his loaf, to be given the reply of "g'wan **** yerself!" :D

    lol nice one DMC, was just about to post the same thing....knocking about the same time as all those old Paisley tapes (taking the piss out of the NI political scene)

    On topic: I have to say I've heard the ad the OP is on about and I never caught the double entendre :(
    I must be loosing my touch

    This woman goes into a bar and asks for a double entendre... so the barman gives her one.

    Eh, couldn't resist! :D

    Back on topic (slightly), a much better ad campaign would have been of posters with the tagline:
    'Brennans bread - please buy our brand... we kneed the dough'.

    I heard that ad, and the first thing I thought was "How the f@ck did they not notice that?" It's put me right off bread.
    In a similar vein, I remember walking down O'Connell Street a few years ago, and my friend pointed out that Burger King had lost the "R". :D Well, I thought it was funny:(
