I’d forgotten about this advert until it was shown on what is quite possibly my favourite non-black-comedy TV program, The Gruen Transfer.
Who knew a chop could be so sexy?

wow… that takes lamb-sicles to a whole new level. Lamb-sicles is what the girls called them the first time they had them, and it just stuck.
thanks for sharing!
I must be eating the wrong food.
like all the best advertising
Lamb-sicles – I love it!
See, there's no peanut butter in this advert… B)
We've been ripped off down here in the south – either that or I don't watch enough TV!!
Isn't The Gruen Transfer the best. I love watching that show!! Now thanks to iView we all can, anytime.
"i love lamb"
eww.
Indeedy. But it's finished again for another season. Oh well
I know.
Actually, this is a good companion piece to Digella Awesome I think…
hahaha. gotta love the advertising. No one's going to forget that!
So this one worked?? Odd.
But glad you could share in our bizarro humour
well, okay. The commercial was for lamb, not a fragrance called 'lamb' right? Then yes, totally. See a package of lamb chops in the grocery store. Picture commercial. Laugh out loud. I think I would at least consider buying them. Of course, I do like lamb. If it was a commercial for an actual fragrance … well, who in their right mind would do that??
Hahahhaaa! I know, that would just be SO wrong.
I'll give some of the history. Sheep overall were Australia's most important produce up until the 1970s…when they went into sharp decline for various reasons. In the 90s, there was a push to increase lamb consumption, and it's continued. I posted another example of the campaign back in January…specifically targeted a guilt-tripping a nation into eating lamb on our national day. Lamb sales have gone up 2000% since the campaign started…
Oh my. That's awesome. 'Eat lamb. Be patriotic.' Priceless. Of course we Americans try the same things. Apple pie. Turkey at Thanksgiving.
Or turducken. That always makes me laugh…
Just saw this on TV. Made me think of you. Had to share.

Ahhh!!!! Thanks for the info.
And yeah … I had one eyebrow quirked the whole time like, "Really??" haha
