Kids and burgers, and never the twain shall meet

How old does one have to be to view a McDonalds ad in the UK?

16. 

Yes, you read that right. The McDonalds UK site says this on the opening page:

You must be over 16 to view this site

and follows it with a demand to fill in one's date of birth.

If you want to score some drugs, however, just hang around the bike shed.
