Twix adverts banned for condoning unsafe driving
Advertisements for chocolate bar Twix have been banned for condoning unsafe driving. The TV and similar video-on-demand ads showed a man in a car chase which resulted in his vehicle and an identical, caramel-coloured car sandwiched on top of each other, like a Twix. Five viewers complained the ads encouraged dangerous driving and were irresponsible. Mars-Wrigley, which owns the Twix brand, told the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) the ad had a 'cinematic presentation' and was set in a 'world that was absurd, fantastical and removed from reality'. It said Twix is known for its playful and absurd tone, and the humour in the ad reflected this. However, the ASA said: 'We considered the emphasis on a chase, and the speed inherent to that, and the driving manoeuvres featured would be dangerous and irresponsible if emulated in real life on a public highway. 'Because we considered the driving depicted in the ads condoned unsafe driving that appeared likely to breach the legal requirements of the Highway Code, we concluded the ads were irresponsible.' The ASA ruled the ads must not appear again in their current form, adding: 'We told Mars-Wrigley not to condone or encourage irresponsible driving that was likely to breach the legal requirements of the Highway Code in their ads.'

Teacher sacked over secret OnlyFans insists ‘I NEVER thought they'd catch me'.. leaving GMB's Susanna Reid speechless
TV host Susanna Reid was left speechless after interviewing a teacher who was sacked for having an OnlyFans account. The Good Morning Britain presenter had been quizzing Kirsty Buchan, who was banned from teaching after she was spotted on the adult platform by pupils. 5 5 5 Speaking to Susanna and co-host Richard Madeley, the 34-year-old admitted: "I didn't think I would be caught, I didn't think I would be famous." The mum-of-one, also known as Jessica Jackrabbit x, worked at Bannerman High School, in Glasgow, when she joined the site. But she was caught out when pupils stumbled across her account, where she rakes in tens of thousands of pounds each month for posting raunchy snaps. After the interview, Susanna said: "Thank you for coming in to talk to us this morning. "I can imagine that people will have strong views. It's good to meet you." And handing over to weather presenter Laura Tobin, Susanna quipped: "Let's have a look at weather now with Laura, who's all covered up in a field in Kent." A disciplinary hearing for the sacked teacher was told her profile was discovered by pupils in 2022 and reported to headteacher Seonaidh Black. Pictures of Ms Buchan, 34, "posing in lingerie" were handed over by shocked students. In her bio she admitted to being a "good teacher gone bad... really bad". The profile was also easily accessible, requiring no payment or sign up. Ms Buchan, who had originally been a pupil at the school before teaching there, did not attend the hearing. In her absence, the headteacher described the OnlyFans model as a "teacher who wanted to do a good job". One concerned mother had even contacted Ms Black and reported how her son left messages for Ms Buchan on her OnlyFans profile. 5
