    They sound more like they're from Wakefield, not Liverpool.

    Oh, I stand corrected - whatever accent that is it sure bugs me. Like when 'Airline' was on and when that EasyJet customer service girl from Liverpool, Leanne Chung, came on I had to mute the TV because her voice to me was like a fingernail down a blackboard....

    The new "Tanfastic" haribo advert is LESS annoying than the "Starmix" one but it's still a bit cringey, the way they pull those faces when eating the sweets, I swear it's not even that sour...:/ and the boy looks like he's 8 years old while the girl looks like she's 13...

    Oh tough on youse ;)
    I spent last part of last week listening to a barrage of
    "sha arpp".."oh baybe" .."oh f***ing sha arpp" from members a wedding party in a rather nice Italian hotel.
    It isn't how we say it but what we say..... I find.

    I much preferred the other Plenty ad but these are just awful to watch .... maybe he should drop by on the "big brother" house and use plenty with juan sheet! :D

    He should listen to those girls in the B.T. ads to learn a genuine Spanish accent.

    Surely Mars Inc. have enough money to invest in a new Galaxy ad? Why are they forcing this rotting (it IS old) pile of crap onto us?

    More like Mars Inc should INVEST in brand new adverts for its brands rather than use ads possibly dated back to say 2000 or just before..... forgot they are "saving" :D

    The new pampers one, with the noisy alarms going off whilst the baby sleeps, sorry but it came on at least three times last night when I was watching TV, absolutely irritating to say the least!

    And those Wonga puppets really annoy me, the way the main one wrings her lips at the end does my head in!

    That company certainly believes in milking adverts for all they're worth. We have:

    Skeletor's secret stash of Galaxy.

    Harridans eating Minstrels while ogling strippers.

    The woman off "The IT Crowd" and her mate put their sleeping boyfriends (the bloke off "Phoneshop" and his mate) in each other's arms because eating Malteasers made them feel naughty. (This ad was part of a series with the same characters, but it's the only one that gets shown anymore.)

    The football player who turns into Joan Collins if he hasn't had a Snickers.

    The sour-faced woman who wants a snack, so her boyfriend brings her a giant M&M in a bowl.

    The red car and the blue car had a race, but smart old blue he took the Milky Way. (This one must be over 20 years old now. Although they replaced the word "smart" with the vaguer "good" in 2009 in case it seems like they're misrepresenting their product as a "smart" healthy option.)


    In fact, Mars Bar itself seems to be the only Mars product which gets new adverts.

    The Red Car and the Blue Car ad is the only true classic from that entire list :D

    The Toyota advert that mauls The Proclaimer's "500 miles". Why can't they just leave good songs alone:mad:
