Avalon Fantasy Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Ok, without trawling through the thousands of posts, at a goodly look I cant see this topic? anywhere.. So, there I was sitting watching tv when 2 adverts came on.. and it dawned on me.. here.. theres chickens in them thar ads... So I was wondering how many chicken films, chickens IN films, chickens in ads are there sneakily hiding away... To start off... Simplybe has woman cavorting about a farm in lovely clothes..and voila.. there are chickens!!! Dolmio albeit these are pretend chickens, but chickens in situ...

Redwing Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I like the cornflakes one where the cockerels have mobile phones (one throws his away and I always think... he needs to get another phone, a duplicate simcard or change his number, its a lot of hassle.......then my OH reminds me that its a cartoon advert ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 The milk one.....is it Cravendale?.......there a re chickens and a cockerel flies into the clock on the wall......or something like that the mean cow actually throws the hapless chicken at a dartboard and the chicken ends up stuck in the board, beak first!

Guest Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I saw a film last night with Anna Friel and Rob Lowe called "Perfect Strangers" and she had 2 chickens in her back garden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirstine Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 There was an insurance ad a while back with loads of buff orps 'chickening' a call centre. I tried to work out how they did it and came to the conclusion that they were all the same chicken, but CGIed. There's the unfortunate chicken in 'Withnail and I', which stands on the kitchen table and tries to make friends with Withnail. I read that it was the actual chicken which a member of the crew had killed and plucked, that they later sat in the oven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurmurf Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 The recent 'Tess of the Dubervilles' had some lovely chooks in it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 .. I read that it was the actual chicken which a member of the crew had killed and plucked, that they later sat in the oven. I read that too in Richard E Grant's film diaries "With Nails". So much for "no animals were harmed during the making of this film"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
