An English accent can be a tricky affair, even when it involves the beloved kids’ favourite character, Paddington the Bear.

| Paddington Christmas ad for Marks & Spencer [Image: M&S/YouTube] |
Paddington recently starred in the latest Marks & Spencer Christmas ad and many people believe they heard an f-bomb in the heartwarming commercial.
The ad, included below, shows Paddington lying in bed on the night before Christmas, while hoping to receive marmalade. He suddenly hears a thump on the roof. When Paddington climbs up to the roof, he bumps into a character, dressed all in red, who he immediately believes to be Santa Claus. Meanwhile, said character is actually a burglar, who has been swanning around the neighbourhood, stealing families’ Christmas gifts.

Paddington, being the nice bear he is, offers to help Santa Claus deliver all the gifts. He recognizes many of the names on the parcels and wants to make sure they get to their rightful owners.
As the burglar and Paddington complete their deliveries, they spot a family, hugging and happy over their Christmas gifts. The burglar is apparently moved by the whole situation and has finally discovered the true meaning of Christmas.
Before he leaves, the burglar gives Paddington a huge bear hug, and says, “Thank you, little bear.” There’s only one problem – many viewers heard this a little differently and believe the burglar actually said, “F**k you, little bear.” Enjoy watching the video here, and let us know in the comment section exactly what you hear.

Naturally Twitter came alive to the story, with many funny posts, believing the burglar should be placed on Santa’s “naughty list.” However some people only heard the words “Thank you.”
I swear the burglar says "Fuck you little bear" to @paddingtonbear #fuckthebear #lovethebear pic.twitter.com/Bg28RLh9p2— DDDDSouza (@Rob_de_Souza) November 7, 2017
The Marks & Spencer’s advert is so cute until it sounds like the burglar says “fuck you little bear” 😩😂 #MarksAndSpencer #Christmasadvert— Chelsey Sleigh (@chelsey_sleigh) November 8, 2017
Big fan of Santa saying ‘Fuck You little Bear’ to Paddington in the M&S Christmas advert. Put the marmalade obsessed little prick firmly in his place.— Ste Davies (@StevenD1977) November 8, 2017
I just heard thank you, nothing else. Couldn’t work out what the naught word was supposed to be. Very strange over reaction from adults.— Kay Louise (@andyflossK) November 9, 2017
Meanwhile, the new “Paddington” film is set for release in the U.S. this coming January (with no f-bombs included).
