Turkey of the week: L'Oréal Paris "French lessons with Helen" by McCann London

Gurjit Degun thinks the latest ad from L'Oréal Paris encouraging body confidence lacks a certain je ne sais quoi.

Helen Mirren’s performance is pretty patronising and fake (or should that be faux?). We understand that the French language has influenced English but why do we need it reiterated in this annoying way? It’s a bit of a gaffe.
