    this would not play without skippping but grabbed control of my browser and would not respond. I had to shut firefox. And who is doing that voiceover? Don't give up the day-job.

    Rapha do make fantastic videos but even if they swept the Oscars I wouldn't buy their soap ... but I hope you enjoy it and that leaves you smelling of the slopes of the Ventoux :lol:

    No probelm on mine at all IE8 I doubt it is Vimeo or the video causing this.
    I agree the voice over was poor maybe not the content but the delivery. John Hurt must have been on holiday. Still, superbly shot.

    Scottie, I was joking although it must be their cheapest bit of kit :)

    What a load of cack.

    Awful gibbering voice over, with a half wit.

    Turn HD off if you can't watch it, and it will play normally. Don't bother, it is full of poncing and posing.

    Voice over man needs shooting in the face. I only lasted about 45 seconds before I had to turn it off. He was trying way too hard.

    I don't want to buy overpriced soap, soap is shite anyway. Shower gel for body, and proper face wash for the face...

    meh?

    shower gel drips, and most of it goes down the plug hole. MASSIVE con.. why do people buy it?!

    Nice bar of ph neutral soap can be rubbed all over, with no wastage and is far cheaper.

    Most of the shower gel I use does not go down the plug hole at all...

    I can't belive you're arguing over shower gel

    I have a feeling Rapha might be/should be too .....

    No, over the years I have perfected the art of rubbing shower gel over my body.

    I'm sure you are adept at catching fluids in your hands, and not spilling.

    Try Dove soap. It is lush.

    Imperial leather was a classy bar of soap... but you could end up with the soggy lable getting stuck in funny places.

    Whatever happened to 'Shield'?


    I had one of them red bikes but I don't any more. Sad face.

    Indeed. If you haven't mastered this yet it clearly just means you don't wash enough. :wink:

    shower gel is for girls. and an environmental hazard with all that tarty plastic gubbins.

    Soap is the lather of champions.

    Rapha soap is for tramps.
