    Be lucky if they made the effort to go to the shops let alone swim through shark-infested waters!

    It has a real James Bond feel to that advert, doesn't it @Santosha12? Although I'd rather get myself some chocolate than having someone break in to deliver it too. Not that I'd pick Dairy Milk any more, the recipe has been strange for a few years now.

    To be fair to the Milk Tray man … whilst a bit creepy, and today he'd end up on a special register, I know where he's coming from

    If I buy flowers or chocolates … it's what have you done … not awww fanks

    Now that you mention it I can see what you mean, but for some reason for me these Milk Tray adverts have always had a James Bond feel to them rather than a stalker feel.

    Found in some old equipment and stuff - from the 70s I think. I think a joker made a load as opposed to it being an official advert campaign…they always had a bit of a sick sense of humour!
