Victor in Mapperton BS: Specsavers ad, insult to Edith Piaf (91* d) RE: BS: Specsavers ad, insult to Edith Piaf 31 Jan 08

M.Ted Thank you and I am really grateful to you for saying this.

Yes everyone is allowed an opinion and I was just really annoyed to see the ad go out. We have to understand that most companies aim their campaigns at youth culture (yes the wear glasses too) because they are today's spending power.

Since I created this post I asked my grandson what he thought of the ad, reply "Yeah the one with the funny looking old woman crowing in French, yeah, it's so funny".

So there you have it, the views of a 23 year old. A lady who's music I have loved and enjoyed for 60 years and who's life was such a hard one, reduced to a figure of fun on the flat screen of his students union.

Well the little basket will be staying with me over Easter, he's in for a treat or two !

Yes your all allowed opinons, sorry if me having one was a problem.
