Pizzeria Hell’s Pizza was forced to pull an ad campaign which was meant to be shown this Halloween, as it featured animations of deceased public figures including the late Queen Mother, dancing around a grave yard.

The advert which was put on Hell’s Pizza’s website two days before Halloween has been removed after receiving criticism from the son of the late Sir Edmund Hillary who was also featured in the video, who described it as “disturbing” and “grotesque”.

Glen Campbell ♥'s the Queen Mum.

After a few hard nights hitting the bottle, you could excuse Glen Campbell for not knowing that the Queen Mum was dead but you'd be hard pressed to understand his 'liking' of the long dead mother of the Queen.

The American singer, famous for his song "Rhinestone Cowboy" told UK tv presenter, Jools Holland: "I love Britain. I love the climate, the way people talk about the weather all the time and your Royal Family - in particular the Queen Mother. Is she still about? I met her at a charity gala fundraiser in the 80's. I think she'd had a couple of gins because she was being quite saucy - she had a wicked sense of humour and sparkly eyes. I hadn't seen the same kind of spark in a gal since a dalliance I had with Mae West." The term 'necrophilia' springs to mind.

Someone take the bottle off him..please...
