Rocky In Bolton

Featured Replies

Heard on the radio this morning that Sly was in Bolton Town centre filming a warby's advert for TV on the town hall steps recreating the Rocky running up the steps moment 

 

Anyone see this

  • That must have been after his run round Jumbles Reservoir.   He went from having a pant in the country, to being, well, you know the rest. 

Pele reckons he's a cock...

 

I think he (Stallone) did some Q+A thing over in Yerkshire (Sheffield?) a few months back, I'm sure the tickets were about £50.

 

What about the anti-scrote loitering fencing they put up (on the Town Hall steps) - they'd  have to take that down, surely? Is it still up, I haven't noticed, it's a case of head down and march through these days when I have to go into town, because I don't want my heart to sink further rather than owt else... :(

 

The Winter Wonderland thing was good though, credit where it's due - especially having a beer concession this year...

I'm not being funny but Brett & his clan can pay for a Hollywood superstar to cone but they won't fork out for Messi.

Warbies Out!

Messi's more of a baguette man than Warbies Thick Cut, like Sly.

Its his new character Judge Bread

 

Anyway, I wonder if he will shout

 

"Aaadriiiannn...

 

Road"

 

I'm here all week.

 

 

The crash barriers outside Studio 1,2,3 (now the Irwell Valley sinking ship apartments) are still bent to this very day from the crowd surges outside the cinema when Rocky IV was showing - queues went three times round the block they did...I wonder if anyone gave him a guided tour, they should've shown him that...

 

It's good that they didn't make too much of a deviation from source material with this 'Judge Bread' character - filming the advert in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

I wonder if he gets free Warbies for life, toastie loaf, crumpets and tea cakes the lucky fucker

The report in the Sun described Warburtons as a West Yorkshire company. :angry2:

Is he skint or sommat? Doing that Q+A thing and now this? It's a poor do if he is...

 

How much did he get paid do we reckon'? I reckon at least £250k and expenses plus all the Potato Cakes he could carry...

 

Dined out in Swinton apparently, wouldn't even spend some of 'our' cash in 'our' town, well, I suppose if we had an Italian restaurant in the town (centre)* it would help...

 

 

 

* Ciao Napoli is now classing itself as 'Mediterranean', and Tiggis was always owned by Greeks iirc?

You would've thought he'd dined in the £1 pastie shop

Agree about the bread but nice potato cakes and tea cakes.

I've been forced to watch it and fuck me I take it back. How ace were those roller skaters?

Advert wasn't bad either! :)

Ridders all getting giddy over getting a mention for the village :)

Pretty good that advert.

Very good ad, the switch over to the other side of the cab was funny

Shit doughy imitation bread anyway

Very true, it's a shame, but Warburtons bread is absolutely shit
