The Kinder chocolate advert with a child's voice over. It's an animated scene of a little boy and his teddy bear.
The bad grammar is not endearing it's irritating. I'm not the grammar police by the way. ;-)
But more so is the guy at the end! I'm absolutely fed up of hearing him saying that damned stupid phrase all the time! I'm finding it SOOOO ANNOYING! >:(
That one with the right rough dog van outen, with a face so camera smoothed it looks like a fuzzy white alien.
Not sure which yoghurt, probably activia or something.
She has a voice that's sounds like it should be advertising builders bricks or something.
Although you can go too far with the cockney sound like the VW transporter adds on the radio where the ray winstone sound alike calls a van a vayun.
Don't forget that she also uses a flat monotone voice with absolutely no emotion in it whatsoever
I think that's what irritates me the most about it. They've literally just got someone to read a few words, they could have at least got someone with a bit of dimension to their voice-over!

I was just coming to say exactly this. The "goalface" promo in itself is bad enough, but her completely toneless voice just makes the advert sound painfully sarcastic. Not a good choice of voiceover at all.
Also hate the British Red Cross advert with the will-writing buffoon.
Graham "Turnip Head" Taylor and his Aldi cider advert.
"Do I not like that?"
Damn right I don't!
It's just awful!
It really is - whoever produced that for Aldi wants the sack.
His diction is dreadful - the so called acting is awful and makes him look at right idiot.
The chair goes back and his hand does not move then he remembers it should so throws it over himself. - there must have been better takes than that (or maybe not and they had paid him megga money and wanted an ad)
Should have ditched it and cut their loses.

I have to look way when it comes on, its just so bad.
They should have used the unedited version in the ad though!
If it had been a different song I'd never heard of, I guess no conflict there which would have been better. The unedited version you linked to would have made the advert longer, but more interesting for singing/dancing along to. :cool:
That advert removing dead skin from the feet is just disgusting and I don't want to see that lol.
Yeah, I find that one disgusting too. Just the thought of it nearly makes me feel a bit sick. I think it's called the "Pedi" or something very similar.
But when you see it in the advert, it looked to me like the woman was scraping nearly a mug full of the stuff.
It falls off quite fast. Yuck!
I'm quite certain that anyone using 1 of these isn't going to get that much dead skin really!
I don't know about you, but here in the uk where I am, I haven't seen that ad in ages, and it's not on my t.v. very often either...... thankfully!:cool:

I love the word buffoon... I use it all the time. I think there should be a campaign to bring it back into common usage
Hopefully, flat VO woman will disappear now that its underway

Oh for the days of 50's adverts.

EDIT. Just found out it is Graham Taylor :kitty:
Agree. That one is blooming annoying >:(
