In ad man buys his partner an exercise bike for Christmas and she vlogs her grateful thanks
The exercise bike company Peloton has been widely criticised for a Christmas advert described as “sexist” and “dystopian” by social media users.
In the advert, a woman is seen receiving the gift of an exercise bike from her partner. There follows a series of vlog-style clips of her filming herself on the bike. In the course of it, she says: “Five days in a row, are you surprised? I am!” and: “A year ago I didn’t realise how much this would change me.”
The only way to enjoy that Peloton ad is to think of it as the first minute of an episode of Black Mirror
