Blowing the Pot Noodle horn

Britain’s Pot Noodle’s television commercial brought a flurry of complaints. I’d say it is more witless than wanton.
In the 40-second execution, a man is seen walking into a bar with a noticeable bulge in his trousers, and his friends accuse him of “having the horn”.
The man denies it at first but then admits that he does have the horn, at which point he pulls out a real hunting horn from his trousers and blows it loudly.
A struggle starts for the horn, which swings round and hits the man’s girlfriend in the face causing her to fall off her chair. The man says: “OK, I have got the Pot Noodle horn. It’s big, it’s brassy and I’m going to blow it”.
