    A stylised TV advert for Twix has been banned after the UK’s advertising watchdog said it condoned unsafe driving and must not be shown again. The advert features a man involved in a car chase between two identical caramel-coloured cars, ending in a crash where the vehicles land on top of each other — resembling a Twix bar.
