    Galliard Homes - I couldn't agree more.

    They make LBC almost unlistenable at the moment.

    This week, I heard the same one twice in one break and four times in an hour.

    ENOUGH !!

    Yes,just one of the many reasons I have completely stopped listening to that station.

    3) TomTom. They have just started an advertising campaign. They are for people who make offensive comments about a newly-wed's wife or someone's conservative hairstyle.


    Oh dear: they make me smile. But that probably says more about me than I'd want people to know!
    Is the NorthGate Vans, the one that sounds like Chaz and Dave, if it isn't them ?

    That's the one!

    That awful woman with the lugubrious voice who advertises testing your smoke alarm! "FIIIARRRR Kills...."

    Yes we know - but you sound as if you were not actually alive in the first place

    That Toyota advert actor sounds like cristo from lbc. That annoying tradepoint on talkSPORT really annoys me. Any ppi advert and that amigo loans advert.

    Dunno if this one's been mentioned, but I am nominating it, as when it was first aired, it was funny enough, but I think that it has now been on for over a year, and that is the one where one fella catches a burglar in his house, believes him when the burglar says that he is from the Gas Board and helps him with his stolen property into the burglar's Toyota (?) car. "£9,995? Do you think I am an idiot?" is the punchline.

    And d'ye know the funniest thing? I honestly cannot properly remember the make of the car, advertised.

    LBC listeners should know the one I am talking about.

    I like those TomTom ads! The most cringe-making is the woman giving her plain friend a lift home "You GO GIRL!"

    TalkTalk and Craig Kelly's awful voice.

    Those ads are being hammered to death & I just tune out the second I hear that 'Hot Hot Hot' song

    That freaking 'Delivery' shite for madbid.com is back.

    Guaranteed to make me switch to the next station on my presets.

    The ones they had last year with the female voiceover weren't much better, to be honest.

    Also worth a mention are the Bauer 'house adverts' which infiltrate their radio stations, especially the ones for the Flirtify dating website which are currently doing the rounds.

    We have Kiss on at work and some of the adverts annoy me -

    MA - talks about over 50% of people surveyed said they had higher than expected bills after purchasing a used car. In the advert the bloke is making weird noises "repairs, repairs" "fffffffuuuuueeeelllllll" "TAX renewal renewal renewal" the thing what annoys me the most is how dense the people were to ask? Surely people know they have to put fuel in a car to drive?!?

    Another one I hate I'd the tom tom ones about alternative routes being faster


    Bore off!!

    Just heard two seriously annoying ads one after the other on LBC.

    First one is the dreadful "Whistl" advert with lots of irritating whistling.

    The other is the Northern girl on the phone to Jonathan Warburton about having split from her boyfriend. "He's probably with his new bit of crumpet now.... sitting in bed eating crumpets.. LAFFING!!! "

    Grrrrrr...
