You lost me. The only UK Grolsch ad I recall is one that’s about a corny pron movie set or something - saw it at the movies in London about 2 years ago. Details are sketchy though. Anyways, sorry White Lightning. 🙂 ---

That’s corny _porn_ movie set, of course. I’d hate for you to interpret that as a typo for “prom”, and think weird things of me. ---

The new one has an interrogation scenario - “Schtop, schtop, don’t be so quick to spill the beans. Why not let us rough you up a bit - you might not crack…” (although I always think it’s “why not let us rough you up a bit - you might like it”) . Then the ultimate torture device is unleashed - Mr Tickly. ---

😃 excellent. **Tansu’s** got the dialogue. It’s set in a dark cellar type room and the Dutch boss man wants to extract information from a guy tied in the chair…if you stretch the scenario, possibly not unlike a troll or sock…so they decide to use **Mr Tickley** Oh dear…that’s funny. Sorry White Lightning – the game was over so I hope you didn’t mind. ---

And it’s a mains powered Mr Tickly. Not for the faint of heart. ---

Why are we apologizing to me? I’m lost… I can’t find anything in here that I’m not supposed to know. Incidentally, about Turkey’s red, I wasn’t disputing that it was the right call, I just thought it was wrong that the announcers liked that call and not the one that went against Croatia in the earlier game. I think they were both right. Thanks for the correction, **G. Odoreida** , I guess I misunderstood what the announcers were saying. I thought it was some bizarre World Cup-only rule or something. Like I said, I don’t get to see too much of this. Geez, none of you guys are from the US. Don’t I feel like the red-headed stepchild. ---

Nay, not a red-headed stepchild- but rather a long lost football cousin from across the sea! [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/brazil-vs-turkey-world-cup-spoilers-for-those-of-us-slow-on-the-uptake/112118.md?page=1)
