This isn't a Ram's World any more

djm4_ljAs heard on the radio this morning: Young's Bitter has been criticised by the ASA for range of adverts portraying a figure with a ram's head in various situations and with the strapline 'This is a Ram's World'. The ram figure is pictured playing golf, at a gentleman's club, and by a swimming pool surrounded by several scantily-clad women. The adverts have been criticised for 'linking Young's Bitter with success at a social occasion or seduction'. Young's defence is that 'the idea of a ram being in the social situations shown in the posters was so preposterous that people would understand it was not real'.
Interestingly (to me),![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lizw and I have rather different reactions to the adverts, and I thought I'd create a poll to see what other people thought. If you haven't seen the adverts, they're available here (needs Flash - follow the 'Advertising' link on 'explore my world').
