Where has the 'Milk Tray' man gone in today's society?

[snorri]

somone out there like me, that craves adventure and excitement in the great outdoors, and feels under-represented by the media?

People with an interest in outdoors adventure and excitement are outdoors, and not sitting indoors absorbing rubbish from the media.

Can you still get Milk Tray? I expect she applied to the court to get an injunction out against him.

Hang about. Wasn't that superhero, Bear Grylls, caught applying moisturiser
(not) in a hotel somewhere when he was supposed to be eating a palm-full of yukky slugs, alone and in-extremis?

the milk tray man, these days, is probably on the sex offenders' register…

Women buy their own chocolates nowadays. They expect men to buy them other things. If Milk Tray man was around today, he'd swerve his 4x4 to a screeching halt in a cloud of dust, abseil down a cliff, roar out to sea in a powerboat and shimmy up to some sleeping beauty leaving a box and a note saying: "They only had the 8gb iPhone - hope it will do! x"

You sir, win an internet. Where would you like it delivered?

I just thought the Milk Tray man was bases on James Bond (who unfortunately is still kicking around). The action film is still popular although the world has moved on from the Bond outlook on life and women quite a lot.

I would actually say the opposite to the OP. There are thousands and thousands of people out there entering marathons, big bike events and triathlons that did not exist in the "Milk Tray" days.

It's often safer. I was consistently bought Ferrero Rocher by one chap. Trouble is, you can't say, the first time "oh, ferrero rocher, I hate them", so you get lumbered...

Fortunately, it wasn't a very long term relationship.

have you not been watching anything with Steve Backshall, Bear Grylls and the other survival bloke whose name escapes me at this moment (someone help me out here)

I'm just disappointed that you didn't quote the line from the unforgettable 1970s ad, 'with these Rocher you are really spoiling us' - because of course that would have worked on every level...

Modern man surely will be too busy doing his own make-up for that kind of malarky. And then there's the small matter of the risk-assessment...
