Walkers - Gary LinekerNewest Review: ... the rapidly reducing amount of crisps actually found in packets today! In contrast to this, i have found that the 'older' generation seem to find these adverts HILARIOUSLY funny. Can anyone fill me in on why? Because I seem to be missing the hilarity of it all! Of course, it may be because my mum is from the Midlands (the area where Gary grew up and where Walkers crisps started) but ... more |

I have discussed this topic with my friends and family at length and have found that most young people like me find these Gary Linekar Walkers crisps adverts, well....frankly BORING. The only thing that is changed from time to time is the context in which Gary pinches some crisps. My friends and i find this annoying and positively unimaginative, as well as a cunning plan to distract attention from the rapidly reducing amount of crisps actually found in packets today! In contrast to this, i have found that the 'older' generation seem to find these adverts HILARIOUSLY funny. Can anyone fill me in on why? Because I seem to be missing the hilarity of it ...

Walkers are doing a trilogy of adverts with the oh, so successful Gary Lineker as the star. The latest is for Wlakers Square crisps and see Gary in a circus behind two girls eating a pack of as he sees it Walkers. He decides to bungee (sort of) down from the circus equipment and pinch the crisps, puzzled 'Square', he says. When the girls see him they grab his bungee cord and catapult him through the canvas of the circus tent. Then do a low five. Its a very funny, successful series of adverts for a popular crisp brand. The crisps are tasty and my family love them. You have to watch when you see the start of ... Read the complete review

Could they have picked anyone better than Gary Lineker to play the crisp fiend? I think not he has slotted in perfectly and should consider taking up acting. The whole series of ads portrays gary as a Walkers crisp aholic who will stop at nothing to obtain a packet. My favourite advertisements include Gary as the school madam, and of course the one where he falls into the potato chopping machine and the little boy then finds an ear in his packet of crisps. Dont know where walkers can go from here, crisp advertisements without gary would be unthinkable. ... Read the complete review

I've seen the Walkers advert starring Gary Lineker loads of time. Yet every time I see it I always find it as comically as the first time I watched it. I especially like the advert because Gary Lineker appears to be such a sneaky, evil character. I thought the adverts where Gary Lineker tries to get rid of Michael Owen was another good sequence. Where he tries everything to destroy him so he can be the main character, but he fails every time. But, by far my most favourite of the adverts is the one for the £20 note. Lineker is in the walkers factory piling in all the crisps into a bag. But then he suddenly sees all the £20 notes being poured out. ... Read the complete review

Walkers crisp's aren't all that nice.The Cheese and onion and salt and vinegar are tasteless in my view. I like the ready salted and Chicken flavours I don't really eat Walkers a lot, now - not as much as I use to I prefer other brands - like Tesco's own brand of Select allthough I still eat a lot of monster munchbut not much of the other flavours. They might be big, but I think Walkers crisp's are horrible. except monster munch I can't get enough of them!!! ... Read the complete review
