Here’s why you shouldn’t miss this ad. It’s got one of the most famous men in on earth (David Beckham) stripping to his briefs. It’s got an overweight TV comic with nearly 5 million Twitter followers (James Corden), bromancing with the football star. All this to promote Corden’s underwear line in an ad which spoofs typical underwear ads. And along the way it targets conventional notions of manhood. It’s also bloody funny. So what’s not to like?
