Plenty kitchen roll Christmas advert AIBU

[Goinglive]

Has anyone seen this. I think it's supposed to represent the gritty realism of cleaning up at Christmas , or something equally as grim.

It's a series of family members cleaning Christmas day incidents with kitchen roll. I'm sure it starts with a lady pulling some tinsel out of a cat's arse.

Either way it makes me do a little gip in my mouth everytime.

I’m not particularly squeamish but that a a little too much.

Yeah. That’s awful. And kind of feel like the bloke is just having a terrible time.

YANBU , it’s disgusting .

Was half watching when it came on but had to ask my son if she’d actually just wiped a cat’s bum?

Just a little bit over the line.
I couldn't see what the old dear was doing, looks like she is wiping the cats bum. With that, the vomit etc. Nope, not for me.

I think it’s hideous not funny.

I hate it

It's awful but I suspect that our reaction is exactly what they want. No such thing as bad publicity n all that...

I turned over just in time to see what I thought was a woman pulling an item wrapped with kitchen roll from the cats bum. Revolting advert and I shall make my displeasure known by not buying their product for a while. They won’t notice or give a toss, and I might forget once it comes on offer but for now I’m huffed off enough to take a one MNetter stand!

It is too much!

I agree that it's a horrible advert and yes, the first one does look like they're pulling tinsel out of the cats arse. It doesn't need durable kitchen roll, it needs the vet ffs.

I don't care that it gets people talking, it wouldn't make me buy their kitchen roll because I'm quite happy with a cloth or the cheap stuff with or without their offputting advert.

Oh, and when I watched the advert last night, I immediately knew there would be a MN thread about it.

We laughed out loud, though I did have to check with husband what I had actually seen wrt the cat!!! Best xmas ad so far.

I thought it was a bit depressing.

I’m sick of all the Christmas adverts already. The Plenty one is awful.

Yes, depressing, revolting and would actively put me off buying their product. It's not clever or funny. You can convey "Hey, this stuff is great for cleaning" without making people feel sick e.g. the Flash ad with the singing dog.

Saw it last night.....a bit too far for my liking. Just grim.

I love it. Made me laugh for the first time in days.
