UK Commercials Gone Bad

We don't have German TV. Instead, we opted for Sky Satellite as it provides stateside programming - some as current as the same week (American Idol and Lost). But with our US shows come really odd UK commercials. Many leave me scratching my head thinking, "What the f**k?" In most cases, the spots are bizarre (there does come along once in a blue moon an advertisement featuring Paul Sculfor or John Lewis creativity that merits second showings). But again, most are strange (they even end weird as the commercial frame either drops or is paused). Take for example the Fridge Raiders spot below. "Why?" I think. For starters, the chicken bites look scary. See for yourself.
