'''''Every Home Should Have One''''' is a 1970 British [[comedy film]] directed by [[Jim Clark (film editor)|Jim Clark]] and starring [[Marty Feldman]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.radiotimes.com/film/cbkt8/every-home-should-have-one/|title=Every Home Should Have One – review - cast and crew, movie star rating and where to watch film on TV and online|website=Radio Times}}</ref> It was released in the United States in theatres and on home video under the title '''''Think Dirty'''''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.allmovie.com/movie/think-dirty-v49479|title=Think Dirty (1970) - Jim Clark - Synopsis, Characteristics, Moods, Themes and Related - AllMovie|website=AllMovie}}</ref>

The overall concept is in direct ridicule of the then ongoing campaign by [[Mary Whitehouse]] on gratuitous sex in advertising and other fields. Certain sections such as the parish council watching entire programmes by which they are offended by to count the offensive incidents, parodies Mary Whitehouse's infamous behaviour of the time.

== Plot ==
An advertising man is assigned by his boss to come up with a sexy new image for Mrs McLaughlin's Frozen Porridge. While his wife runs a clean-up-TV campaign organized by the local vicar, he has an affair with the au-pair girl.<ref name=bfi>{{cite web|url=http://www.bfi.org.uk/films-tv-people/4ce2b6a9ace4d |title=BFI | Film & TV Database | EVERY HOME SHOULD HAVE ONE (1970) |publisher=Ftvdb.bfi.org.uk |date=2009-04-16 |access-date=2014-01-22}}</ref>

The overall concept is that adverts play out before their lives connecting to the products to hand.

The various porridge advertising campaigns get more and more extreme: the most relevant being the [[Goldilocks and the Three Bears]] campaign. This leads to a secondary campaign to search for "Miss Goldilocks".
