    The Victor betting ads and cannot believe Paul Kaye has anything to do with these :(

    The Santander ad is bizarre, quite why they think depicting three of the country's biggest sports stars as creepy stalkers will help their business I have no idea.

    That new MacDonalds ad with that bloody irritating "We can be anything that we want to be" song.
    It's on all the time and getting right on me tits! :mad:

    That annoying DFS sofa ad with that annoying "Come on everybody, now let's play a game" song ranting in the background.
    Hate it!:mad:

    There was an advert on tonight with two old women sitting on a beach ogling a young man taking off his swimming trunks underneath a towel,then they sent their dog over to pull the towel off! If that was a couple of leery old gits and a nubile young woman,there'd be an outcry and it would be pulled immediately.
    Sexist rubbish.
    As a woman I object to the assumption by advertisers that I find this kind of thing amusing.

    The latest 3 ads with that pony, donkey, horse, or whatever you want to call it,
    First time I saw it, I thought it was for a frozen food product
    :p
    What in the world has it got to do with a phone company? Why will it make me switch to them?
    The thing that makes me cringe most about them is the twitter trollocks at the start of each one, grrrr...:mad:
    What a steaming pile of poop the whole "campaign" is. Pretentious to say the least.

    Gocompare.
    It's not even funny, never was, never will be.

    Advert for a holiday/travel company, and at the end the woman says 'ATOL Protected'.

    Annoys me every time because I think she says 'Adult protected', as if it were one of those disclaimers before the start of a film!

    Also, the Ladbrokes ad with the muppet shouting around- I think he has become the new Gocompare. Fortunately it only appears when the football is on, which I don't watch anyway.

    And finally, the Snickers ad with the woman becoming a man.

    How about those Ads for Google Chrome, the one where the guy sends his ex an e-mail with a file / pic asking that they go out for "One Last Drink".

    If you ask me he is an obsessive stalker in the making, who doesn't understand the meaning of "No".

    That guy on radio with the Brummie accent

    "Eeef.....ewwwww......cawl......Autoglass.......eeet.....wuuuuurnt......affect.....yah.....nawwww.....clayyyyms......bonus"

    Oy Leave Gavin alone :D:p

    The one that really gets on my nerves is the MaccyD one Yerallllllllllright, the woman in that played a murderer's mom in Scott & Bailey.

    The one that upsets me is the one for Marie Curie Daffodil appeal, I can't watch that one, the man on it reminds me of my dad just before he died of cancer, It's an effective advert, just so very, very sad :(:cry:

    Aviva for me.

    Whitehouse's accents seem to be terrible. I'm from the North East and his North East accent is rubbish. I assume it's supposed to be Geordie (by the Peter Beardsley "obviously" bit), but he slips into both Wearside and Teesside in it.

    I wonder what the other accents sound like to the natives - I'm guessing his Brummie is equally poor?

    His Brummie accent is dreadful, the telly gets muted when that one is shown, either that or my foot would be through it! It's nothing like a Brummie or Black Country accent! Really pee's me off

    And to make me simmer even more, I've just noticed at the start, he says a Welsh-type "hyurr" for "here" instead of "hya" (again, presuming it's supposed to be Geordie).

    Saw that the other day - vomit inducing.

    Just seen the latest Secret Escapes ad. As a vocal fan on here of the first one, I'm disappointed - a very poor sequel. The dialogue is total cringeworthy.

    On the positive side though, she is looking and sounding hotter than ever.

    Seeing a lot of dancing pony haters, it's my fave ad. The song Everywhere makes me sing along :)

    The one with the people bobbing their heads, buried up to their necks in coffee beans would be 100% improved if Boardwalk Empire's Gyp Rossetti came along with a spade and worked his magic on them.

    I was watching Sky News and then Carol's big bosoms came on and got my attention.
    I can't even remember what the advert was for either :D

    I was in the Goodnight Sweetheart marathon and your post appeared just after the ad came on :D

    That stupid diet coke advert where the women shake it up, roll it to the man so he gets wet and has to take his shirt off.

    another example of male degradation on TV, that is totally acceptable, yet if it was a group of men doing it to a scantly clad woman, it'd be pulled post haste!

    Warburtons Half and Half, with those hideous little boys. They appear to make "w@nker" signs to each other after greeting their father. I think it' supposed to be "Drinkies" but it looks like "w@nkies" instead. Awful.

    Why doesn't he just pick up the phone and TALK to her - "Hi, I was a complete idiot, I love you, can we get back together?" - much simpler! :D

    Totally see his point.

    Phone calls cost. Email's free.

    No point spending money when she's likely to say no.
