LOVE it or hate it, you can't help but notice the quirky TV ad for Illawarra optometrists Dirk and Aurora.

You know the one, done in old time silent movie style, where dastardly Dirk plays a series of devilish tricks on the unsuspecting Miss Aurora.

Of course you've seen it, but how closely did you pay attention?

At least one eagle-eyed Short Orders reader certainly isn't in need of Dirk and Aurora's services.

Elsie Barker noticed an error on one of the story boards that flashes up on screen during the ad.

Elsie is pretty sure doesn't is not spelt ``dosent"!

Apparently, someone in TV land needs their eyes checked.
