Or more to the point, the "boy" pretending to be the MD?
DH is convinced it's a computer mock-up and I have to say I agree - the head and face is of a big baby boy, but the body is a 3yo, surely?
My (almost) 3yo has a much more toddler-y head than that.
Even if it's a real child, it's so creepy to hear it speak like that, it's really putting me off buying the loo paper for sure.

Alesxmum is that true?
I was thinking as I posted, what if it's the child of an MN-er? But then it's not the child I find creepy, per se, especially if he is made up.

I was going to post this the other morning- its so freaky, especially the one where he starts off the advert by singing 'the wheels on the bus'

weird.

Horrid, horrid, horrid. And why? What's the point? 'OOh look at the baby in the suit, think I'll buy some loo roll' eh? wtf??
