    Just seen a new one

    The stroke association, if they think anybody believes that any of the three so called actors have had a stroke, they can think again

    Yeah, I agree, totally rubbish. Why couldn't they have filmed people actually having strokes? Crap. I mean, they expect us to look for symptoms without showing real stroke victims? What a bunch of amateurs.

    As a nurse I've seen plenty of unfortunate people who have had strokes. None of them had their foreheads on fire, though...

    The Philadelphia with chocolate ad.
    The whole idea makes me want to vomit.
    I used to work for Cadburys. When it was bought by Kraft, we joked that they would be doing cheese with chocolate, not dreaming that it would actually happen !

    Can't see why chocolate with philly makes you want to puke. Philadelphia isn't a cheesy cheese:) It's not as if it's Stilton with chocolate:D That would make me vomit. Anyway, people eat cheesecake (and you get chocolate cheesecake) so I can't see the problem:)

    I may sound insensitive,but that advert for Macmillan nurses with Alison Steadman makes me roll my eyes.

    "They helped her to live,(dramatic pause).,.even though she was dying".

    Erm...

    As someone not in the medical profession, I recognise that was an "effect" used to signify the potential damage to the brain, and not a literal interpretation of what actually happens.

    The KIA ad with just a car and nothing else.

    "Look! We're aware of cliches in car commercials and we are avoiding them! Aren't we clever?! Those other companies outselling us with their fancy ads are losers!"

    That Channel 4 ad for T4...it's saturating the channel right now.
    There can't be many more arrogant, up themselves, down right irritating and unfunny gits than those T4 presenters!

    I saw an animated version of the bass playing/wifi cafe one a couple of days ago. It was done in the style of "The Sims".

    To be fair, when they have cars that look that good, you don't need any frippery or flim-flammery.

    Or cliches.

    The vanish ad with Russell Grant and the goat should really vanish from our screens asap.

    I do like Gethin Jones, but the Holland and Barratt ad annoys me so much. Buy one get one half price 'you don't get that anywhere else'. Erm, yes you do.

    Also, you go into the shop itself and find that it's NOT on everything like the ad mentions. Talk about misleading! :mad:
