Yeah - It's brilliant.

Totally left field - didn't know what it was advertising or what to expect the first time I saw it.

Cadbury's need not spend silly amounts on Advertising, they already have every female in the country buying from them, and most males as well!

It is a brilliant advert, and it is all to do with good old Phil Collins and the drums!

I think that after the salmonella scare they may have a large advertising budget to get them back on track.

Apparently that's not a real trained gorilla playing the drums, but an actor, who (get this

) plays gorillas all the time!

reminded me of this

I was young at the time and remember sitting up late with my headphones plugged into my B&W portable TV so my parents couldn't hear.
