[patricks148]

was watching TV last night when an ad for Fish fingers came on.

always remember Captain Birdseye as a jolly old man who had a ship full of kids as his crew..

now its some hipster who enjoys swimming with his grandson.... grandson, i didn't even know he had any children let alone grandchildren...!

:rofl:

I recall not so long ago they changed Captain Birdseye to a younger chap in his late 30s/early 40s. Has he gone back to being old again then?

not really, think hipster rather than salty old sea dog.

Wife laughed when i pointed it out to her last night, she looked on SM and it appears the new guy has a bit of a female following all gushing how hot he was, but no mention of his crispy cod:rofl:

Oh, I was talking about when they changed him to this guy:


Apparently that was 1998 when they did that. :lol:
