If it is your dd/ds on the Dairy Milk advert

[Pawslikepaddington]

They are SO CUTE! Especially the little girl! I want my dd to be like her

She's mine!

Not really but mine is very cute too

I thought you meant the one with the gorilla playing the drums

I'd love it if his big old silverback dad was on mumsnet!!!!

ROFL Cuppa-I bet he starts all the trolls!

Not my DCs, but I do actually know the cute girl, she used to do ballet at the same school as my DD and I know her mum fairly well - she has another daughter who is currently in the Oliver stage show - so a very talented family!.

Oh I started a thread about this yesterday, its fecking hilarious

Hi. My DD is the girl in the Cadburys AD.
A friend just showed me the link to this thread so I thought Id say HI and thanks for the kind comments.
It makes a change from al the really nasty ones on youtube ; (

I dont think I have seen it, is there a link?

Ok - at the risk of sounding completely thick - are they really doing that with their eyebrows, or is it some kind of magical televisual-land trickery?

They are hilarious!

it's cgi you can see the blurrrrr

Its not CGI except for the bit of her on her own which is speeded up (of course); )

They used pads stuck onto the forehead, just above the brows which were attached to wires.
2 puppeteers each were standing behind them and pulling the wire to dance the eyebrows to the music. The kids also helped and did a bit on there own!

The puppeteers,pads and wires are just then edited out cleverly. It took 2 days and DD had a slightly sore head after but she had great fun as you can imagine

My DH can actually do this with his eyebrows for real [proud emoticon]

I'm a lucky lucky lay-dee.

They did see a LOOOT of kids for this commercial when auditioning last year.

I think the skill of keeping a staright face was actually more important than being able to raise your eyebrows as DD not that great!

Meant to say straight obviously

Have just seen this!!!! (more 4 - grand designs)

It was faberoonie! - educatingrita - you must be very proud, your dd did a fantastic job!

(and she's gorgeous...)

Sorry, Educating, I've just read your earlier post and realised your DD is the little girl in the ad. She (and the boy) are just amazing. I've had a horrible flu bug this week, and saw the ad for the first time from my sick bed - cheered me up no end! You must be very proud of her

Thankyou very much. Shes kinda goofy I know, but I think thats the look they were going for.
Really nice to read something nice, its been a tough week!

Educatingrita - I am soo happy to meet you
It is such a funny ad and I do think she is fab!!
Are you usually around on MN? Or is this your memorable 'how did you find MN' moment
Paolosgirl - wow how lucky you are

I used to post ages ago, when there was a thread for modelling mums I think it was.

Not been on for ages though, at least a year but DocBunches kindly e-mailed me the link to see the discussion as she knows my DD was in the ad. xx

omg they actually did use wires! your poor daughter's head

I am that! The long winter evenings just fly by in our house.

Yeah. I guess the blur you can see is where they edited them out (and the pads).

Its been well done though I think, considering there were 3 men standing behind them.

I think its ok for me to tell you all as it was in the Independant newspaper with photo's Monday!

oh wow! Congratulations! I haven't even seen the ad- I really want to now!!

Not sure if this will work but will try anyway...

Why has it been a tough week? What kind of nasty comments on Youtube?

Shall we duff them up??

Your dd looks gorgeous. You should be so proud. Did she know the boy beforehand or not?
