United Colors of Benneton may have done this earlier...http://www.flickr.com/photos/marketingpost/218640733/ Sat 04 Jul 2009 03:28:38 GMT+1 http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/ni/2009/07/too_hot_to_handle.html?page=13#comment4 A priest sexually tempted by an adult woman! Come on, thats not the mental picture most people have nowadays when they think of priests and sexual matters, following the host of scandals involving priests and child abuse.I'd have thought the RC church would have seen this as a positive move in rehabilitating priests in the publics' eyes.

I don't think the black and white clothes the models are wearing makes them any worse than all the other similarly ridiculous ads. I don't think that my not liking it means they should be banned either, though I wish ad agencies could be a bit more imaginative.It's disappointing the see the ASA ban this because it could be offensive to some people, when they recently dismissed the complaints of several viewers on the misinterpretation of an autistic teenage as a monster.

This is more proof that there is no real freedom of speech in the UK and it is not a democracy. The UK has no problem sliding far down on what SCOTA calls the slippery slope of censorship. As anyone who has considered the freedom of to speak one's mind knows, it needs protecting most when it is at it's offensive, not when it is inoffensive. That's its real test, the one the UK just failed again. Wed 01 Jul 2009 13:47:34 GMT+1
