    'I didn't start growing until I joined the Army'. What sort of experimental hormones do they give them these days?

    Unless the speaker in that ad is Captain America, he's
    talking waffle. ;)

    It's has to be the blood in your poo advert.
    I just hate it. I understand the point they're trying to get across but it's done in such a way that feels like if you do suffer from that then there's no point going to the doctor, you're going to die no matter what.
    Every time it comes on I have to mute the tv.

    Awful advert.

    Hate that advert. From experience with my Doctor (no those symptoms) they muck you around with tablets and only when they're sick off you turning up every other week send you for tests. Then you are doomed.

    Anyway back on track, hate the SafeSytle advert, the VO5 one, if they went on XF they'd be told they were boring singers probably.
    The Bold one (Gold) is cute though. Kids aren't prentious unlike how that 'mums a gennnniiiius' kid comes across.

    Oh my goodness, yes!

    Still, there is a redeeming factor: the singer isn't one of those awful, breathy, twee female singers! (I'm quite surprised, actually!)

    Who's singing it? Doesnt sound like David Tomlinson :confused:

    According to google it is David Tomlinson; he sounds older in the advert than I remember on the soundtrack of Mary Poppins (I haven't seen the film for years though)

    Maybe he (David Tomlinson) re recorded it later in life?

    The DFS song with the awful 'quirky' song with a singer who can't sing. Another failed art student probably.

    Sorry for dragging this up and reminding people of this dross

    but I was watching Bill Bailey Dandelion Mind last night and he kind of covered this topic.

    His song is slightly difference but highlights the total jibberish lyrics they use

    I'm sure your granddaughter will forgive you..eventually; perhaps you can find a grandmother with a tin in her tin? :D

    In the meantime a green sleeping-bag will suffice as an emergency crocodile costume ;)

    I must be really bad because I haven't got one of those either :o

    OK, please don't try and tell me that The Strictly advert is not David Bowie :D

    The Car People advert with the dog training skit seems to be on every break this week on ITV, it's getting quite annoying.

    Hate those stupid Zeebox adverts before the Simpsons on Sky1.

    Bloody awful smug american voice saying stupid lines. Is it supposed to be funny?

    I don`t like cat food adverts where after feeding the cat the owner has the cat rubbing its face against theirs.There is no way that after feeding a cat you would let its mouth anywhere near your nose.

    I absolutely HATE the Sky Broadband adverts with Bruce Willis! They're completely annoying and they are on ALL THE BLOODY TIME! :mad:

    Also, I heard this annoying Citroen C1 advert on the radio while listening to Planet Rock. It was some crap about Facebook users getting what they wanted in the car. The worst part though was the stupidly fast reading out of the small print at the end. I HATE THAT! It's near impossible to understand what is being said and it goes on for like 20 seconds! :mad:

    Jesus H. Christ the V05 sing-whilst-I-do-my-hair adverts make me want to vomit my fist up through my television.

    I hate that freaky old man Charlie who lives in a BUPA care home with his chickens and his dear dead Margaret. He's 83 and even won a medal in the war! What was he - 15 or something?

    Other wars than just the World ones ..Korean he would have been old enough for that.

    I do like how even he is seemingly struggling not to laugh!

    "I love my job. *slight smirk to camera*"

    That V05 advert with that girl singing like she has a frog in her mouth. Just another try-hard wannabe.

    ...and here's the evidence, video and screen-grabs:

    Just odd, on so many levels. Who gives a **** about your mornings? You love your job? Oh really? :rolleyes:

    He's strangely upbeat and overly smarmy considering he will be reporting on the news :eek:

    He looks like a bald headed old man so why would any girl go all gooey over him?:confused:
