A STINK over a cheeky advert to help tackle personal hygiene was cleared up today.

The Advertising Standards Agency rejected 62 complaints over three Andrex toilet wipe ads, saying they were supposed to be funny and were not meant to offend.

One of the Andrex Moistened newspaper ads showed an image of a woman's bottom in yellow knickers with a cartoon picture of a monkey on them holding its nose.
