I had a thought on the way home from work tonight.....

I think that John was advised by some PR type (Clifford?) to attach himself to a specific product in the hope of securing a mega sponsorship deal when he's evicted...

The reason I say that is that John doesn't seem to me to be a Coke kinda guy....He smokes incredibly expensive cigars and dresses like a true eccentric - I just can't picture him in the house asking Booby for a nice glass of diet coke (More like Bitty probably )

Seems all a bit contrived to me......discuss?

I think you answered your own post, I can't see coca cola beating a path to his door, having said that, theres no law against a big person drinking diet coke, in fact it makes sense

It has a ridiculous amount of caffeine in it, and can be quite addictive

i used to drink 2 big bottles a day

i hate the taste of diet soft drinks, they taste rotten, much prefer the full sugar stuff (not that i'm sweet or owt )

Not being funny but as if Diet Coke would get someone so fat to promote their drink!

I hate the taste of diet drinks as well they taste far too sweet and syrupy for my liking and leave a nasty after taste. Maybe they do that so you dont drink so many of them.

the diet coke break advert last night on BBLB was brilliant!

they keep putting diet coke ads on

**louise takes a slurp of her can of diet coke**

They ain't short on the marketing tactics at moment re. soft carbonated low calorie fizzy drinks are they!

But if a fat person was trying to lose weight, they would be the ideal promoter

re: sponser deal, hmm, unlikely. Coke - or any other leading brand would not want to be associated with a guy whose habits we are now quite aware of . Ewwwwwww

Re: diet cola (or any diet food stuff)

Aspartame = the devils sweetener. If you consume anything with that stuff in it, you might as well just take up smoking, crack, bottle of whiskey a day etc.

evil stuff;

Calrissian: Has a thing about artificial sweeteners

Bookies are offering odds on John McCririck taking part in a Diet Coke advert.

William Hill make it a 5/1 shot that the Celebrity Big Brother housemate will be asked to front an official campaign for the drink.

But they believe there is a greater chance of him appearing in Celebrity Fit Club (3/1).

"You couldn't describe John as a marketing man's dream but stranger things have happened," said Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.

He added that the racing pundit certainly does not fit the role of the six-pack labourer from the recent Diet Coke commercials.

McCririck lost his temper in the Big Brother house and staged a silent protest when his requests for Diet Coke were ignored.
