    Ford Kuga. Another badly dubbed one with a totally pointless story.
    I think all the new Ford ads are Europe wide. The flip the screen and dub to do the English ones.

    Well said. OAPs listen to music in their day and age.

    Er.....no we don't! I've just got tickets for Paloma Faith, have Jake Bugg and Adele on my iPod and am currently listening to Barry Louis Polisar. You might not like my taste but we're not all getting down with the Beatles/Stones!

    I can't stand the way they pull their faces trying to be childlike, i think it would have worked much better if they still had adult demeanour but were just dubbed with the kids voices.
    That said, i love Haribo, although they should make the plastic less noisy as it's practically impossible to sneak a packet in the kitchen while the kids are watching TV!
    I hate any advert aimed at mothers. They use kids to try to make the advert appealing and the new Facebook-generation yummy-mummies lap it up.


    This is the worst example for me. The awful broken English which is supposed to be funny and cute, but is just stupid. "Teddy is very very not very well", "much happier" and there's another line about the chocolate not being the right size for the teddy which is stupid too. And the kid's voice is annoying - we're just lucky it's a cartoon and not live-action with some ugly kid spouting that rubbish.

    The whole advert really really annoys me..

    l can't bloody stand the Kinder one either and just to make matters worse the mother has the most migraine-inducing voice aswell, she sounds like Janet Ellis on helium! :(

    Yes. That's ABSOLUTELY what they're doing. They thought "you know what will make our product sell really well? Comparing ourselves to paedophiles".

    Glad someone else got that.

    All Boots ads. (Ta Dah! >:()

    The bit with the 'teacher' - "OK, let's take this lesson outside" (makes a change from clogging up museums where they can skive off for a couple of hours)

    "Everybody got suncream?" Of course all kids pack suncream to go to effin' school.

    I don't like the car ad with the song "You and me", where they show a dog running along a road in the middle of nowhere after a car which obviously has its owners in. I emailed them and asked why they think showing as dog being abandoned in the countryside is a good advert. All they replied with that no dogs were harmed.

    Haha, good one! Yes, he probably doesn't even bother to examine the teeth and gums - just tells 'em to use Sensodyne.

    It seems Channel 4 are now preventing the use of Ad Block on 4OD. So I turn it off and I get "Programme starts in 1:15."

    PISS OFF! >:(

    Not sure what this ad is for but it's 2 men and a woman walking in a factory talking about the delivery of an item and they keep repeating "When Your In" >:(>:(>:(

    Not a footy fan here but I prefer the BBC ad instead .... "last one to the top is a randy savage" (is that the footballer pundit for BBC? - correct me), plus its more colourful to the ITV ad

    It says that? Randy Savage was a WWF wrestler who died a couple of years ago.
    Hulk hogans rival. Unless there's a different randy savage but I doubt it

    So it's you oaps who are the reason for today's appalling "music".

    I'll stick with the Beatles and stones

    I love watching the X hose ad :D Its usually on at silly oclock.I kept saying I was going to by myself one but they are a bit expensive. Went to a market the other week and there was a similar version more of a Y hose :D. But its brilliant. and its green .

    Any advert with a sad child wearing rags carrying buckets of water, whilst neglected looking donkeys stumble over a dusty track covered in stones.

    Must all the ills of the world be thrust in our faces? Surely it has been proven that guilt tripping people and getting them down isn't as effective a fund raising technique as cheery viral Facebook or gift giving campaigns.

    The one that bugs me is the Muller chocolate one with Nicole Shirtswinger :D Shes sat in a limo and she opens it now to me it looks like bits of dust in the yogurt. The she sets off getting all in a dither over it ...she makes the same noise in the toilets on the plane lol.
    Then the limo pulls up sharp and she falls forward and sits back up with a blob of Muller on her nose and the daft bint thinks its bloody hysterical .
