I didn't realise they'd actually done a CGI Hepburn for that.

I thought it was just a made-up actress.
Bit of a waste of effort, come to think of it.
And it was supposed to be Italy, on the Amalfi coast. Ah well.

I hate that advert. Trading on dead folk that can't stand up and say actually no, I don't endorse your chocolate as it's shit.

I hate the perfume one with Grace Kelly and Marilyn Monroe pasted into it as well. The perfume one is worst as Monroe is famously on record as preferring another perfume entirely, so it's not even right.

Well, at least Johnny Mercer got the last laugh by namechecking a Nestlé brand.

I know right it's like the creative team couldn't think of anything original so went with the old 'do something with a movie' cop out
