In fairness to Richard, I doubt he was ever fooled by the Happy Period advertising, twas more a case of trolling for likes I’d say!

That video is funny, witty and halarious!!!…well done Bodyform.

Can’t understandy why ‘personal hygeine’ companies spend sooo much on advertising…there are relatively few companies out there, all competing with one another, but in realtiy if they focused on the packaging and the product quality shouldn’t that be enough?..instead of spending gazzillions on marketing?

Thos os pure brilliance on the part of bodyform. Look ladies,we all know that a happy period doesnt exist, its just irriatating at the least n painful at best, not to mention u cant wear ur fave clothes n underwear n u just feel icky. But having a bit of a laugh at a clueless man who lets face it must have had his,brain removed,at birth if,he honestly beleived the ads is pure,genius and I applaud the company for being a good sport annd quite tongue in chek aboit it. oooooa

Brilliant. 1000 times funnier and smarter than 12 year old Richard’s posting.

Brilliant. Hate the always ads. Happy period my ass. Always use bodyform products now. Cheaper and way superior to always. This is just another reason to love them.

Karen – That’s it exactly! Thank you! It was driving me mad trying to find it, I kept Googling “tampon ad pitch don’t stop believing” to no avail.

Celine & Nicola – I wondered that too, but he’s a lad from Coleraine who joined Facebook in 2009, so it does seem like he checks out. Although I totally get your skepticism!

Celine – totally with you on the initial Facebook post being a plant by the ad agency – but don’t think it matters.
I love this campaign and may even switch to Woooooah bodyform when relevant.
