Lol I like how you put that chris

For me it was never something I learned I could always just do it.

Re: Cadbury's 'Eyebrow' advert

When i first watched it last nigth i thought "freaky" but it's so compeling to watch at the same time. I do think it's done with timelaps or CGI.
Another thougth that came to mind was the film "The children of the damned" or "villiage of teh damned" the 60's sci fi film based on "The Midwich Cukoos" I think it was their hairstyles and blank expressions hahaha still made it even more freaky.

Re: Cadbury's 'Eyebrow' advert

errrrr...waggling my eyebrows fast is summat I've done since I was a nipper...

However I suspect some jiggery pokery fakery went on..But I also think some of it is the real thing..

I can even make my knees dance up and down to music..slowly these days though.


Live long and prosper.

Re: Cadbury's 'Eyebrow' advert

@ Maggy, Eyebrows and knees. I don't suppose you could use those skills to capture the attention the kiddiwinks during the week?

It takes a lot of concentration for me to lift one eyebrow and there is no way I can even do that unless I close an eye and kind of scrunch up my top lip.

John just caught me trying and now thinks I am either loosing it or practicing for a Gurning Competition.

Re: Cadbury's 'Eyebrow' advert

Why are people scared by this?

Jealousy I reckon.Just 'cos they can't waggle their eyebrows...

Re: Cadbury's 'Eyebrow' advert

Well it looks like a mixed bag of opinions.

The fact that it is strange and different will mean it will capture people's attention and that is what they want at the end of the day.
