Go To Work On An Egg

RM sends me a link to the classic "Go To Work On An Egg" commercials, starring Tony Hancock. The proposed re-introduction of the ads - which are funny, whimsical, absurd, in short, everything you would want a commercial to be - run aground when Mother England decides that an egg a day is, in fact, bad for your health. And then brings the hammer down. Controversy here. Lengthy clips above. Smaller clip here.
