Just sat watching the weather forecast in the south west uk and at the end there was an advert for Transition lenses. This advert had a certain Tyler Farrar popping down down the shops on his shopping bike (all in black and white). Shot in super sexy black and white but with his helmet and glasses; he did look a bit of trainspotter; nothing wrong with that though.

    Super sexy colour would have revealed levels of gingerness never previously seen which, to be frank, the tifosi are not ready for.

    If it is the one that accompanies the GMTV local weather forecasts, then there is obviously something wrong with your TV, as it is not in Black and White, especially when he leaves the garage!!!

    Hmmm...is the ad in colour then? Blimey; I did 2 years at Art college doing photography and spent 12 years as a painter and decorator where I have to match and advise on colour. Was it really not in Black and White?? Oohh! hmm.. :cry:
