    I'm still waiting for the Bankruptcy companies to start putting adverts on TV to capitalise on all those who took out a payday loan, joined a bingo or a gambling website, can just see it now....

    Took Out A Payday Loan (tick)
    Or Joined A Bingo Website (tick)
    Or Joined A Gambling Website (tick)

    Got Into Big Trouble Paying Them Back, Lost Lots of Money Using Them, Then Contact Quick Bankrupt Company Today For A Quick A Easy Way To Go Bankrupt....

    but then thinking about it, it will be cringeworthy and we'll all be on here wanting them off our screens....

    I really hate that First Choice advice with the smug git and his family . I would be improved if at the end they look at the pool and see a a steaming big turd floating in it.

    As does that little girl pushing a credit card through a crack in the floorboards, she has a very sly look, needs a slap.

    Betfair....PaddyPower....William Hill....Ladbrokes....PartyPoker.....888.....Casino365...BetVictor....etc...


    Back in the day, gambling establishments were found in quiet corners of city centres, filled with old soaks and cigarette fumes

    Now, they are all over TV

    Along with payday loans, debt restructuring and cash for gold ads, they are a sign of Britain's sad decline.


    Agreed and agreed.

    Don't know if it's been mentioned- but the lastest series of Go Compare adverts. Particularly the one where the guy kicks a football at him. I know they're meant to be silly (people find him annoying) but I find them unpleasant- why are adverts encouraging nasty behaviour? :(

    I do not know how they get away with this. It is saying it is fine to boot someone in the stomach with a ball :mad:

    It's probably been mentioned, but the Secret Escapes ad with the whispering bint really gets on my mammaries

    This IS going to happen, cos the feckless idiots that use the above (and in a lot of cases, all 3) will start to need help.

    I know of one guy who uses womga for beer and cigarette money. I'm not joking!

    I on the other hand could watch that advert on a continuous loop all day :-) Gorgeous girl. She can whisper to me as much as she likes.

    I could also do a crude in-joke about wanting to get on her mammaries but I will avoid that gag.

    Apologies if this has been covered already,
    I have not had the time to read through all
    the previous posts on this thread:
    The current Voltarol ad is,to say the least,
    a bit mental! A chap taking his young son to
    see a football game,hurts his back.They go
    home and he rubs Voltarol onto the site of
    the pain.All well and good.But then,according
    to the onscreen caption 'the next day...' they
    are both seen at the football match!
    I don't follow football,but I don't know many
    clubs that play on two days running!

    I actually saw the Kerry Katona advert this afternoon and didn't understand most of what she said, do they really think that using this pathetic person will make people take out a loan

    The Diet Chef advert with the drippy girl who's a role model for her little girl.

    It's sad to have noticed that it's sung by one of the Strictly Come Dancing singers, isn't it? :o

    You really want to get out more ;):D

    Gorgeous she may be, it doesn't stop me wanting to put my fist in her face. She won't be whispering then :p

    I agree. Don't mind the whispering.
    The only problem is right at the end where she reminds me of Claudia Winkleman. That's a real put off.

    The lovely Secret Escapes girl is Camilla Arfwedsson BTW.

    And frankly expressing a desire to punch her in the face is hardly redeemed by putting up the ":p" symbol: it's really not funny whatever you may think out there on Planet Neanderthal.

    If she looked like Su Pollard you wouldn't be saying that :D

    It's just the whispering that irritates me, if she spoke normally I wouldn't be irritated. It wouldn't be much of a 'secret' though, would it?! :o:D

    I'm female. I guess now you'll be thinking I don't like the woman because I'm "jealous" :rolleyes: And I guess you think it's ok for posters in previous posts saying they want to slap a boy and girl in an advert? But you don't pick up on that.
