    The Calgon ad, another Euro ad with terrible dubbing.

    OMG The latest Barclay Coding advert is even worse than the last one.

    So the kid deletes the whole 'program' and just changes one character for another? rolleyes

    Well the UK will be rich in programmers in about 15 years time, who can just delete and copy other programs.

    They say money makes the world go round. At Nationwide, we think it’s people. Maybe that's why we've been named best overall online provider of the year. Nationwide: on your side.

    Oh no, and the new Kleenex one with the mum who congratulates herself because she done such a good job with the 2 kids who she is talking to via a portable TV screen, that gives out packets of Kleenex.

    What next a porn one?

    "Hi I'm Kandi"

    "Here's you free packet of tissues". ;)

    That Samsung Galaxy Note 4 advert. Yes the main character is an annoying knob but that's to be expected in a phone/tech ad. But what the heck's with the Hmmmmm noises interspersed with the dialog? It's almost like the advert company knew how awful it all looked and could be heard questioning it in the background.

    Oh God, I've just seen a Money Supermarket ad which turned my stomach. It features a bloke who is wearing hotpants and has a CGI backside that he swings about as he minces down the street. This must be the product of a seriously warped mind.

    Just seen your quote, and THAT ad again:o (to retain sanity I need to kearn to sky + everything and ff!!!).....yes seriously warped mind and more>:(>:(
    did I ever mention how much I loathe this advert! !!

    Can't remember which bank it is (might be Halifax or NatWest) but their advert is SO patronising and biased towards people who have lots of money.

    The Diet Coke advert - because they have badly dubbed over the girl's real voice.

    Indian Summers for Channel 4 advert - that annoying girl who looks like a female version of Daniel Radcliffe.

    The Shreddies "Knitting Nanas" advert

    Not sure if it is the one you meant, but I do hate the halifax adverts. "Laura Smith, you're our kind of person", for what? Doing all the same shit everyone has to put up with in jobs, or maybe that's their point? Still, she hardly seems high in the charm department- look at the way she bats that little kids arm away, stroppy cow :p

    Another Burger King ad with people who have no value of money.

    "How much would you pay for this meal? [burger, chips, drink]"
    "£7 or £8?"

    7 or 8 quid for a fast food meal?! What planet do these people live on.

    Possibly the best ads that used to be on TV. If these had gone Nationwide at the time, they would be legendary:

    It's a grocery version of Final Score.

    Fixodent - it doesn't bloody work!

    General points:
    A) why don't men eat yogurt?
    B) why don't men get constipated?
    C) I thought Shobna Gulati was off to the USA 'cos no-one was offering her parts & now she's in one of the dreadful bingo ads (can't remember which!)

    Not a single ad but the ones for the numerous online bingo sites are universally awful. Is there an ad agency that specialises in crappy bingo commercials?

    A) Imagine how poorly men would be portrayed if they started aiming yoghurt ads at us. Bad enough the few times we're in yogurt ads we're the butt of the joke (standard media faire) and called thick to make some woman roll her eyes at him in a condescending, look how superior I am, manner
    B) see A
    C) no idea who she is. Just came to comment on points A and B

    I refer you to Jasper Carrot's "Flake" advert parodies...

    It's the type of woman they are aiming at with ads like that, that gets me. A sad reflection of society maybe? I mean, she's obviously fairly common since so many adverts are like that. Clearly they're aiming it at women with self esteem issues. It's the sort of woman who likes to perv on hot men, but also likes to watch them humiliated and fail, because she's so insecure herself.
