You know the one about the couple and the carnival and Vernon says 'I love a Brazilian, me!' I thought it was a bit of fun, nothing too bad but I read a TV critic saying this today :
MEMO to Vernon Kay. Re your sickening Doritos advert. Early days, I know, but it's already looking like a worse career move than Boys And Girls.
Am I missing something here? We know what he means by Brazilian, but it's just a laugh. Sickening? Bad career move? Again - am I missing something here?!

Screw Vernon- that ad brings about the welcome return of Seb Castang to our tv screens. Night and Day was so fucking ace.

Double entendres have nothing to do with it- the ad is just shit, full stop. Gaah!

I may be an ageing prude, but I think that ad is so wrong on so many levels - the fact that it's all about sex, the couple are unhappy and unfaithful, there are people down the back of the sofa.... Yeah, it's supposed to be a laugh, but I just find it so YUCK.

They guy is hot (the one in it form the beginning) and we are meant to believe he is with that troll?
Doesn't vernon sound like his Bo Selecta impression on that advert.

Who cares about the couple cheating on each other, I think that's great. The disgusting part is Vernon who is neither funny nor entertaining.
One of the most irritating adverts for a long time.

Yeah, it's supposed to be a laugh, but I just find it so YUCK. It isn't as disgusting as the McVities advert. That's super gross And balls to Vernon Kay. He should be buried alive with Chris Moyles so both of them can suffer the most torturous demise |

It's cheesier than... a cheesy dorito.
I find Vernon Kay less appealing than a shaven fanny.

There's a borderline racist subtext to this advert: i.e. that people from Brazil are sex maniacs. What's that got to do with the price of triangular crisps?
Vernon's voyeurism is rather unattractive too. Doritos should seriously think about getting back to advertising basics and replacing him with Michael "champion of the lesbians" Winner.
