FFS!

Bull****

Advert advising 'Go to work on an egg' has been banned.

Re-runs of a well-known television commercial from the 1950s which instructed viewers to "Go to work on an egg" have been banned.

Standards watchdogs say they do not encourage a balanced diet.

The Egg Information Service, set up by the industry to provide information and answer questions about eggs, had wanted to screen the advert, which featured legendary comedian Tony Hancock, to mark its 50th birthday.

BACC spokesman Kristoffer Hammer said it was not a question of whether an egg a day would cause any harm, but that it should be served with fruit juice or toast.

So are they going to ban all adverts for sweets, sugar coat cereals, macdonalds etc, etc?

Just so you know what your missing.

WARNING: watching these adverts may force you into an unvaried diet.
