Do you get really bored when the adverts are on during Emmerdale etc?

I sometimes switch to teletext during it for news etc.

What about all here?

Yes I do get bored of them, although that McCain advert the other week was mysteriously captivating...I was watching just to see how much longer it would go on for!

I either watch them, make a snack/drink or play with my phone.

I agree Safra, I have noticed that the Emmerdale ones are shorter than Corrie too.

Was it Emmerdale the other day when they only advertised two ITV Dramas then went straight back into the programme?

I remember getting up to get a snack/drink and hearing some woman proclaiming "Jack's got three nipples", swiftly followed by the Emmerdale music.

I loathe advert breaks, because my attention is so short I have to really try to stay and wait for the 2nd half, or I just wander off and come back for the very last bit of the episode.
