    I absolutely hate that bloody advert for the Kindle that's on every farts end at the moment. It's one of the most uncreative adverts ever made.

    A load of men in suits were obviously sat there around a table going "How can we show people this is small and robust?". Cue a load of cheesy clips showing a dog licking it, a woman getting it out of her knicker drawer, etc.

    It's like something they would make on The Apprentice when they get 2 days to come up with an advert!
    and it's so much better than a BOOK, which is cheaper and not subject do going toes up, is less attractive to a thief and if lost or stolen can probably be replaced for less than a tenth of the cost of kindle

    I normally like him, but when Gethin bloody Jones keeps popping up and scaring people from behind shelves in the Holland and Barratt adverts I just want them to tell him to piss off and leave them alone.

    I see he's escaped and doing the same in gyms now too.

    Pets at Home does my head in. They advertise it with loads of people happily taking their pets around the store whilst shopping, when in reality when you try to walk in with your Sister's dog they turn you away because, and I quote, "Sorry, but we don't allow animals into the store"!

    The Honda adverts; especially the ones running on commerical radio right now.

    That dreary bloke with the patronising trans-atlantic drawl drives me to distraction, enough to make sure I'd never buy a Honda, that's for sure!

    Not an advert as such but I find those Phones 4 U sponsors on Harry Hill's TV Burp very annoying and creepy.

    Oh yes saw one of those. Jumping up and down and saying EVERYTHIIIIIING like some demented children's entertainer. Lovely! NOT! He roped in Kenny Logan to do one but mercifully that's not on any more

    The L.Casei bacteria are real enough, the trendy names are patented by the companies; like Defensis, Immunitas, Digestivum and most recently L.Casei Danone.

    The Tesco adverts with the irritatingly chirpy 'every little helps'. It makes me want to scream and never go in a Tesco store again.

    I don't even understand them. What are they meant to be?

    The one where the parents are surprising their kids with trips to disneyland / disneyworld.. Not because it's a rubbish advert, but everytime it's on i get really jealous that their off to the best place in the world and i'm not..

    Even though i am 28, I would love to go to disneyworld. I'm a big kid at heart :D

    When I went to Florida I didnt go to Disneyworld :(
    Universal Studios was cool though :)

    The Day V Lately ad sucks - not as charming as JR Hartley and won't be as popular.
    90's techno on Vinyl? Really?

    All year for me the worst advert on TV has been the Confused.com adverts.

    Murdering old songs that didn't need murdering and annoying dancing are my two chief complaints.

    I certainly agree about the latter, especially that waste of space "Strictly come
