Write a short summary of what happens in the radio or audio work.
This commercial launched the celebrations of 25 years since Lynx Africa (body spray) was released in the UK. Throughout those 25 years, Lynx Africa has been by the side of men, serving as a 'wingman'. So we decided to celebrate with a roll call of iconic wingmen, because every man needs a wingman.
Translation. Provide a full English translation of any audio.
Every man…. needs a wingman.
Every Batman needs his Robin
Every Frodo needs his Sam.
Every Obama needs a Biden
Every Ferris?...a Cam.
For one Bill, there was Ben
Another Bill, had Ted
Heisenberg had Jesse
And Barney for Fred.
For Kid, see Play, Silent Bob… see Jay.
