Apparently 8 people complained about the original advert so that is a new one they released to please everyone

No, but the girl prancing about in her undies is getting a bit tiresome, she should put some clothes on for a change.

Semi-naked men instead of semi-naked women, to shut the harpies up.

According to the reports it's not the girl prancing about ( there's naked arses all over the adverts nowadays ) but what Philip Glenister says.

''Oh come on, it's Christmas. That girl prancing around in her underwear.''

Really, why it even made the news I don't know. 8 people complained, so what ? There must be a complaint about everything on tv but it never makes the news.

What I don't understand is that 8 people out of 60 million in the UK can exert so much power. These are the few who should be put against the wall and be shot for the utter stupidity and uselessness.
