1st, it's brilliant ad

2nd, it's a brilliant ad

3rd, anyone, in any country, sitting on their moral high horse judging any other country about their past...please take a strong hard look at your own doorstep and I am certain you will find plenty of opportunity to be disgusted about what your own country is responsible for like slave trades, crusades, holy wars, empiries killing for resources and King and country. Found your own country there? Of course you did! History didn't start in 1933.

Why say that? Carling contacted the RAF Benevolent Fund and the commanding officer of 617squadron to get permission to do this ad, they all said yes. Obviously you knew that anyway. You do know what 617 squadron is yeah??

@MrBuglebuggy

The Enabling Act (German: Ermächtigungsgesetz) was passed by Germany's Reichstag and signed by President Paul von Hindenburg on 23 March 1933. It was the second major step, after the Reichstag Fire Decree, through which Chancellor Adolf Hitler legally obtained plenary powers and established his dictatorship...

the best of the best adverts ever bar none past, present or future, not to mention that those heros tht took part in the real raid probly shortend the war by 3 weeks at least, and when you consider around 300 thousend people died every week give or take in ww2 thats pritty bloody good going and thank you Sir Barnes Wallace R.I.P.

jesus christ its an advert, that is all

I understand even the German military were impressed with the flying skills on this raid.The Germans are actually complimented (hint of Bert Trautmann, a story worth reading).And the RAF crew sent up.Yes, civilians & POWs were killed (it was total war) but my mum was bombed 3 times by the Luftwaffe & she found it funny.My dad ex RAF Bomber Command invariable laughed like a drain at the voice of the Bomb Aimer. It's a brilliant ad enjoyed by 2 peoples who often share the same humour.

This add was brilliant. It was a parody of the great raid by 617 squadron. Reading some of the rubish written, I am convinded that some people are brain dead. Its brilliant, its hillarious, one of the best adds ever made.
