Walkers Extra Crunchy - Review

I'm afraid I'm unable to keep pace with the glut of great ads being churned out by the advertising fraternity, be it domestic or international.

This one dates back to at least a month ago! See, what did I tell you!

With this ad, Lionel Richie, yes, none other, makes his debut, and how!

The ad opens dramatically with a man in the shadows, subsequently being revealed as, yes, you got that right again, Lionel Richie.

The music is borrowed from his vintage collection - the chart buster, "Say you, say me..." which has been changed in the ad so hilariously to "First you, then me".

The ad sees Lionel singing the number as friends and family share a Walkers Extra Crunchy Crispy in the park, while two lovers share it on a bus, and at the department store, Lionel tries to take a crispy from the former English footballer (striker) Gary Lineker only to find himself in quite a pickle over it.

The ad ends with the voiceover saying with a straight face, "... made for sharing, sometimes".

I loved it as I'm sure you will too. Write in and tell me what you think, at:

I'd love to hear from you.
