Title: An old advert
Post by: RogerE on April 26, 2022, 10:37:32 AM

Just came across this advert for Bluebeard's Revenge shaving products featuring London Wasps.

Must be about 10 years ago, by the shirts, but can you recognise the players?

I was looking for highlights of the match we had a few years ago in where we scoreed 90 points against Viadana (The video is the one where they have used the Back in Black/Rolling in the Deep mix as the background music), and this came up amongst the possible hits.

The video I was looking for is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1Jr2XA_FIY

And actually on top of that the first is Charlie Davies (welsh scrum half)

Wow...wow.


The Instagram generation have certainly taken us on leaps and bounds over the past 6 years.
Even the marketing itself was pretty cliched for its time.

I'm not sure Wasps would aline themselves in quite the same fashion these days  :D
