M and s advert…

[xxlshirts_fit_all]

This is what me and the missus argue about in our house, can anyone help resolve it…

They throw a board game up, can anyone identify it…

I said “trivial pursuit” and she said “sorry”….

On closer inspection, it loooks like a crossover… any clues to help maintain domestic harmony?

 

[El Guapo]

I can tell you but, frankly, I’d rather leave you in domestic unhappiness.

 

[Zoophonic]

Haha. Its definitely not Trivial Pursuit.
Ive never heard of crossover but just looked it up and it's definitely not that either.

 

[redcarbob]

Look like Ludo pieces?

They do but Ludo doesnt have cards.

Perhaps they just made a generic 'game' to avoid licensing fees when broadcasting it in an advert.

I think that's probably the answer. They have mocked up a board for filming purposes.

I can't believe there isn't a Mooner who either worked on the ad, knows someone in it or has a collection of obscure board games in the loft

 

[Boro_Interlinked]

Am sure it's Ker-Plunk !!

 

[peboro]

What is the point of it being thrown in the Fish tank ?

 

[Glover_elbow]

I thought you meant the one with dawn french fairy, i would love that thing to be swatted

 

[Abel Tasman]

Surely if it existed they would be selling? Cannot see a game like it in M&S shop…. which lends weight to the theory its a mock up

 

[Boro_Interlinked]

It's a mock up as .. there is no fold in the board. All official retail board games have a fold in the board so that the retail box doesn't have to be that big. They've overlooked this in their pretend design . Poor thinking there from MandS Ad consultancy and the internal players who ran the rule over the finished Ad and Ok'ed it. I shall have to consider halving my Percy Pig repeat purchases

 

[Boro in Devon]

I know that this doesnt help identify the game, but are those pieces butt plugs ?

 

[Diego]

Puddings is massive

 

[pierrequiroule]

Do an FAO for bumface.

 

[Juninhoburger]

It's a mock up game but it's clearly based on Trivial Pursuit: Genus Edition
