The Nandos radio advert uses a humorous and repetitive style with a simple, modern tone. It features a male voice impersonating a Mexican accent saying "It's ok!" and promoting Nandos' tagline "cheeky Nandos". The overall message is that everyone is welcome to eat at Nandos. It aims to be an amusing yet informative advert about the food options, though it could have included contact details. The salsa music matches the fake Mexican accent used for comedic effect.

2. Why do you think the advert was good or why do you think it wasn’t verygood?
Despite it being uninformative it was catchy as it involved humour. The salsa music and
accent was another added effect to make the advert remember able but as it was a put on
Mexican accent people could take offence to this and especially the part about the
monobrow.
But altogetherIthinkthe target audience of this advert would enjoy it and in the end of the
day that’s all that matters.
