The first banned advert was a KFC ad where only one white male sat in the middle of a carnival in Africa surrounded by black people, he decided to shut them up "stuck in an awkward situation?" by holding up a bucket of KFC's chicken "too easy" he said. This was banned as a result of the public thinking it was racist.

The second banned ad was an Apple iphone 3 ad where the narrator stated that "helps you get the news really fast, find your way really fast and download pretty much anything really fast". This was banned as it sent misleading information to consumers about the iphone’s speed from getting the news, downloading apps or using your gps.

The third and final ad that was banned was from Nike, it showed a female undressing to go into the shower and as in a horror film she opened the mirrored cabinet and then closed to see a scary figure behind her (Michael Myers, from Halloween) with a chainsaw, she escaped by running through the woods and loosing the chainsaw maniac, as she ran it showed her wearing Nike trainers and showed the male slowing down as he was out of breath. It then quoted "why sport...you'll live longer" to then go on to show the male limp away "(Nike logo) + Just Do It". This was banned as it would have definitely given the younger audience a fright and was sure to get the producers of the Halloween film involved as well as Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
