Did you spot the error in that ad when his picture connects with the old bird the symbol at the bottom still has a line through the cam symbol which means the video link is not connected visually.
It means the video is off at *your* end... you would still receive video if the other end are sending it
Here's a new one, those "Brand Power" adverts that at first glance appear to be a non biased consumer advice slot, but are actually paid for by the manufacturers themselves. The deception has been offset by a message at the beginning of the ad.
I always assumed they were simply value/ no frills adverts... as in supermarkets have a value / normal/ finest range
When I first saw it I was confused because it looked like proper cleaned-up film but there was no way those paintbrushed eyebrows were original and initially I thought it was someone's face planted over the top. For some reason I was convinced it was Lily Collins as a good fit.

It's quite clever, the technology aspect I suppose, but it does look like a cartoon-ish version of her in my view. As I said the over-enhanced expressions are just irritating, rather than endearing.
Mo Farrah in that quorn ad - he sounds too exhausted to pronounce 'programme,' so he just mumbles 'prgrm' instead. You'd think they'd make him do a few more takes before he was allowed out to do his running about.
The slightly creepy advert for a drill...can't remember the brand
Dad is in the garden doing some decking and struggling, little girl watches on, cue music and some big dude spins round on next doors fence panel with a drill in his hand..
I can't tell if the girl is giving him a look of lust or salvation.

My OH goes 'I bet Rolf wished he had that effect'
Clas Ohlsen! I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks there is something rather creepy about it.

i too find this advert creepy, i don't think Claus Ohlsen realised how it looked before airing it
It's not Claus Ohlsen, a;though their executives would have approved it - it's the idiots n the ad agencies who come up with these daft and sometimes creepy ideas.
Thats the new STV Bingo ad .... annoying as hell >:(
That'll be it! I heard my mum the other day ask my dad 'what's he so happy about?' lol if you win a bingo, chances are you've spent more playing it than you've won, unless your especially lucky but even if you did get a big win, I often hear that your not allowed to withdraw wins unless you've wagered something scary like 50x what your original deposit was?
ETA - I see someone else already made the point. The only time I 'won' via a bingo.gambling site is when I joined a cashback site and took up an offer which consisted of signing up to Jackpot Joy, depositing £20 I think it was and I got £25 cashback as a promotional offer. I spent the free/welcome deposit given, entered the prize draws, then withdrew my £25 via the cashback site (as their minimum withdrawal was something like £20, so the payment from the bingo site covered it) - score! you've got to be careful with these things though. I noticed, for the record, that the free versions of games were much easier to play (thats where you play to earn entries for free prize draws and your not charged money to play to potentially win money) but if you selected play for 'real', for instant wins, it was much, much harder. Hmmm, I wonder why(!).

Oh that bloomin' 'urrrr berries' one? what the heck is an 'urrr berry'?! >:(
Whoever recruits these actors for STV ads is a bit tedious these days and ideas is beyond joke. I agree with what you say in relation to bingo but does anyone actually do what that guy does in that ad? I wouldd cheer but I wouldn't get the poppers/confetti out and dance around like a prat (they may as well have gave him an added accessory - a kilt!), I also wish STV would stop using the default accent in all their ads - there is more than one in Scotland they can use

Yes but they could see each other.
seems like a strange thing to fake.... I'll have a look next time I see the ad.
Apparently it's a reconstruction with lots of added fakery...

Are there no controls on these things any more?
Clas Ohlsen! I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks there is something rather creepy about it.
That's putting it mildly!
Also for the fact that they used the word 'weekend' as a verb.
On the plus side I quite like those ads that look like dating site ads but really it's about a person falling in love with a product - quite amusing.
The bloke has completed half the decking with what looks like the world's oldest screwdriver
The advert should really be about pain relief

Hardly a rousing endorsement surely there should be a minimum number of people surveyed before you proclaim results.
