    I can't stand the Fosters ads with those two Aussie blokes. They are about as funny as a hole in a life raft. I generally can't stand any advert that is trying to be funny and fails spectacularly.

    I hate the new Go Compare ads with the "celebrities" more than I hated with original ads. I'd rather see the Go Compare man fire an RPG at Sue Barker to be honest.

    Michael Parkinson selling death is also pretty annoying.

    Thought that decrepit old mutt had died years ago :confused:

    When Windows 7 was released you couldn't move for people taking credit for it. I notice for 8 not a single person has stepped forward... ;)

    An E4-specific ad - the Tool Academy one. "I'm just a tool..." I'm sure the song writer is one! :mad:

    I'm sick of seeing those coloured tiles on every advert that shows a laptop or tablet.

    I know now why most adverts use choir singers singing popular songs, because when the real thing is used it looks terribly bad aka the tesco adverts.

    The most annoying part of one the adverts with Kevin Bacon is when he says "I was in Apollo 13 with...Tom Hanks" and moves his eyes like he's trying to remember the actor.

    Whaaat? The Michael Parkinson, as in 'Masterclass'? (Masterclass at conning money out of the vulnerable). How much money do these multi-millionaires need?
    The promo for this show has been stinking up the Sky airwaves for some time now. Opening line says it all
    "For some time now........" ie., I've pitched this to every TV controller and had it turned down until now.
    His first guest? Jamie bloody Cullum - Parky's pet singer.
    Real imaginative:rolleyes:

    I really don't understand the Tesco Christmas adverts. Their music choice is just completely random. "I Predict a Riot" in a Christmas advert? WTF Tesco?

    Just be thankful you don't live in the Central region and have to put up with these two morons before every weather forecast on Central News.

    The John Lewis snowmen one makes me feel sad & I don't know why, I can't watch it - it's too upsetting.:confused:

    I'd heard a lot about that ad before I saw it, several people had told me it was upsetting to them.

    I watched it and thought it was dull. Would be much better if one of them melted.

    I know, how is that (a riot at Xmas dinner) a good thing? :confused: Unless they mean "I PREDICT a Riot (But It Turns Out OK)" :confused::o
    Their music isnt even very Christmassy :o

    The very.co.uk ad running in ad break during loose women - shows a stupid man trying and failing to wrap a stuffed seagull up as a present. :rolleyes:

    The Littlewoods ad was truly vile, full of chavvy sounding kids who were basically celebrating their mums buying expensive stuff (probably on HP) :rolleyes:

    I see Anthony Ogogo is back with Subway claiming its "Healthy"

    The Louis Smith one (which I think is just plain chicken breast and salad) sounds healthier, but athletes can afford to eat subs every day or whatever it is, because they burn off so much. Us plebs dont, so the subs arent very healthy are they?
