Be sure to watch the advert before reading the post!

So specsavers are well know for their catchy adverts a few spring to mind like the crop circles one or the cutting down the telephone pole because it looked like a tree. But this advert took a totally different take on the normal format of a specsavers advert. Personally I think that the whole Mr Men gives the advert a very good sort of feeling, like it would appeal to many age groups. Little Kids: Check Teenagers: Check Adults: Because it is kind of comic and childish, Check.

Ahh, Happy land, a place that every person has been in a dream (don't deny it!). And wow even the worms are happy, that must make it the best place no earth. Anyway, did you notice that Mr happy also doubles up as Mr Dumb and Mr abusive?

Mr Dumb: He pulls his broken glasses from under his bed sheets. Us, the viewers assume that he has sat/slept on his glasses. How can you sleep on your glasses? Glasses are usually made of metal or hard plastic each very sharp and hard. It is truly a very hard feat to get to sleep laying on a pair of glasses. The only way I can think of that you would be able to get to sleep on your glasses, is if they were the super-flex type, you know, the ones you can tie in a knot. If you know of any other ways you can sleep on your glasses accidentally, please leave it in a comment.

Mr Abusive: Pretty self explanatory really! Lets start with a thing I like to call : MR HAPPY'S CASUALTY LIST.

1: He viciously assaults the purple Mr man by slamming a cake into his face. But what if the cake had very hard icing, slammed into a cartoons face could cause stars to appear around its head.

2: Mr Happy kicks a metal bin full off usual rubbish and it soars through the air and lands on the pink Mr Men's head! Surly that would cause brain damage?!

3: He tortures Mr Tickle by tying his own arms around him in a attempt to strangle him! Please lock this cartoon away for life for the cartoon worlds safety!

4: Shudder... I can hardly watch this one.. he unravels Mr Bumps bandages.... look away if you are of a nervous disposition.

Thanks for all the views guys, I'm sorry for not posting in a while, lots of things got in the way.
