    The various yoghurt ads that are going with a Greek theme. Boring and overdone.

    It's not Audrey's fault they pasted her into some crappy ad, to be fair :p

    It looks like Audrey is CGI pasted over real people.

    It must be weird for them seeing themselves on tv again after 14 years. In fact, I think it'd be pretty depressing if they've not had much work since 'oh look, there's me when I was young', they're probably in their late 40's, early 50's now!

    They're probably just happy to receive the royalties.

    Well... Not exactly, it'll be the fault of her sons.

    Wonder if they sold it to them by saying they wanted to depict her in a daring theft from a bus and a getaway by jumping into the back of an open top car.

    Edit: Nevermind, it appears some actors do get paid per airing, there was some dispute. They can also choose a flat rate at a higher amount. This was from a US site though, so not sure if it's the same everywhere, or how accurate the information is.

    Exactly, not her decision, she's been dead over 20 years. I don't think it's a particularly bad ad though, it's just been shown a lot!

    I see the "Whens' a Your Dolmio Day" Family have got a new ad - In which Little Wifey (her with the long hair) looks even more like a Little Dolly Child than before. She's a standing next to Mama Whilst' a Mama maka Da Chicken Yukky Dish for Din Dins

    If I were Italian I'd be steaming mad at the stereotyping.

    The Aldi ad with the woman comparing Magnum to Aldi's version where the woman takes a bite of the ice cream lolly and then throws the rest away!!!!!!!

    I like her and her accent makes her seem more approachable for ordinary blokes.

    No 7 ad - "we blocked out mirrors for these women ..... weeks later" (shocked faces) .... really?? Pretty sure they have known a slight change at somepoint :confused:

    It's a load of crap anyway. Whether simply having a wash/putting in makeup in the morning, or using the loo at work, they'll come across mirrors and/or require them, anyway.

    That No7 protect serum advert has been driving me mad. The woman do my nut in. Do they really expect us to believe they went a whole 4 weeks without looking in the mirror *rolls eyes*
    But it looks as though they all applied makeup without the mirrors, and did their hair etc. Etc. Stupid advert >:(

    The most annoying advert at the moment is ANY ADVERT! :D

    Exactly, they are all annoying, probably because they are made by advertising agencies that intend them for a viewing audience of backward 4 year old children.

    Sensible adverts I can tolerate but few are. They have adults singing silly turgid songs or doing stupid things and wonder why people cannot wait to switch them off at the first opportunity.

    If I were an advertiser I would be embarrassed to put this junk on screen.>:(

    It would be interesting to see why that couple are using a straw to eat Maltesers and I just wonder what their hands are doing:confused:

    Is that woman an actual "celebrity" or supposed to be pretending to be a "celebrity" :confused: I don't *really* care either way I'm just curious.

    Is it me or has that Sunlife advert with Parkinson been around for years now? They've cut bits out and super-imposed more modern gifts on the ad, but it's still the same thing. Are they going to keep using it until he's dead?!
