Barry Scott is back and he's got a girlfriend. I am referring to the new Cillit Bang advert "Slime and Grime" or something. And now he's got a girlfirend Jill.
But remember that Barry Scott is a character made up for the TV. I had arleady posted a blog many moons ago about it linking to a great web page. (Check links Cillit Bang)
And yet this Character Barry Scott has his own Blog. Here it is!
Here is what he says about Jill Did we have chemistry on set you ask? I'll let you judge for yourself when you see the ad. Are rumours of love true, you ask? I don't have time to gossip, readers - I'm too busy Banging myself happy all day and night. Cillit Banging that is.
Good marketing gimick? possibly. Nothing wrong so far.
But This blog was actually a link from another blog.
Tom Coates talking about meeting his father for the first time. Emotional stuff I think. but look who has left a comment
And then I got a comment from a man called Barry Scott. The comment read as follows:
"Hi Tom, Always remember one thing. Life is very, very short and nothing is worth limiting yourself from seeing the ones you love. I hadn't seen my father in 15 years until 2 years ago. I was apprehensive but I kept telling myself that no matter how estranged we'd become there was no river to wide to cross. Drop me a line if I can be of any more help. Cheers, Barry"
Is that not just a bit too much for a marketting gimmick? A fictional character leaving a comment on a personal blog about an emotional issue?
What do you think?
Anyway I hope he is happy with Jill!
