Just think, Sid Vicious could now be advertising Cillit Bang or those knives that can cut through anything.

or it's his sneaky way of getting to say the c word several times on main stream telly.
personally i have nothing against the c word (unless meant in the derek & clive way) david baddiels novel has a brilliant laugh out loud use of it as a ing word and a -ness word (adverb and adjective?).
neither do i see the problem with doing an ad unless it's those parasitic money consolodation or funeral plan ones (ie countdown ads).
shoulda taken the £s rich!

I find it interesting that someone who bucked the system in the 1970's/80's and 90's is now selling butter. If only Karl Marx or Mark Thatcher would have tried the same method, the system would be well and truly shaken now.

Subject: JL advert, pooping butter [ REPLY ]

I misread "he is shilling butter on TV" as "he is shitting butter on TV"; now that would be a much better advert.

Subject: The best thing about John Lydon [ REPLY ]
Posted by: JJ on 07/Oct/08

is that he married the MOTHER of a member of female punk band The Slits. She's German, at least 10 years older than him and wears an eye patch. That's punk rock!

Yeah if I desperately needed money I would. But you only get offered loads of money if you don't desperately need it.
I was offered something recently and pondered if it would be OK if I used the money to fund one of my personal projects that I wouldn't get paid for. I decided not to this time.

If you needed the money would you ever do an advert?

Something happened to him at some point in the last decade or so and he has become obsessed with Britishness, it makes me cringe. I remember first seeing it at some awards ceremony. The script for that ad fits right in with this trend. I wonder if it could be the influence of his pals who didn't like the Bloc Party singer's 'black attitude'?

I feel the same way about Suggs/Captain Birdseye.
