The Tapi floor ads with some curly haired pray rolling around on his new carpet.

Lloyds TSB - the advert with what sounds like random, tuneless whistling. Drives me insane. Is it actually meant to be a tune?!

Wayfair - furniture store with a 'song' that badly rips off the verse idea of Billy Joel's We Didn't Start The Fire. Presumably, they've changed it enough so that Mr Joel receives zero royalties.

Hate the one were all the family get their Christmas gear on and go out and bump into another family with the same stuff. Its some online shopping thing.
Haven't given it enough brain space to notice the company, but it sums up Christmas today.

Tesco's Christmas abomination actually trying to make a virtue of the corporate greed which makes (the) Christmas (feeding frenzy) start earlier every year.

I loathe it.

The ad with that woman who's in love with her blue cardigan. I bet she's one of those people who turn up in the same outfit each time they go out with mates. There's always one.

Seems like advertisers have recently discovered Flash by Queen. Don't they know that's an old song?

Oh no

What have they done

They have actually done an advert showing a load of people singing the Toys R Us theme tune badly

This must be the worst Christmas advert ever

I rather quite like that TK Maxx ad. At least it's different

I can't stand the recent Maltesers ad with the two deaf women. I have no problem with the women or their deafness; I DO have a problem with the ridiculous high level of ambient sound. Why is this necessary? Is it supposed to accentuate their silent communication? Arrgh!

Still think the So Money Supermarket ad with the builders vs. the office boys, to a soundtrack that sounds like a demented Michael Jackson from his Dirty Diana period, is the worst one.

Anyone know what the music track actually is?

Just seen the new Tesco ad. When are they going to give up on these two? It gets cringeworthy every time. At least the son has gone thank god

I'll go with that, but I had a little chuckle when her thoughts were on the voiceover when she was considering Christmas stuff was just a bit too early yet ... then plonker hubby comes up with Christmas bits!

The aunt from the TalkTalk ads is very annoying, especially the one where she's laughing at something on an iPad(?).

Her laugh is very annoying and makes me want to put my foot through the TV.

"Dirrty" (because spelling ain't cool) by Christina Aguilera.

The TK Maxx ad is b*ll*cks but doesn't come close to some of my least fave Xmas ads of recent years:

- Last year's Waitrose offering, which tried to be "relatable" by featuring a real live Waitrose employee. They therefore picked one who worked at the "steak and oyster bar" at the Canary Wharf branch. So down to earth!

- Boots and its Chav Santa, who dishes out presents to his girlfriend and loving parents ... to the tune of "Smalltown Boy" by Bronski Beat

- Sainsburys' shameless commercial milking of WWI

I'm sorry to hear of your split.

Maybe the house did have bad aura in some way. I'm not sure I believe in that kind of thing mind.

Or maybe you gave in and it was that DFS carpet that you finally bought to try and shut DFS up

It's a hypocritical load of crap. Yes the world is changing, in a bad way, thanks to Unilever. They use 20% of the world's unsustainable palm oil, which destroys the south East Asian rainforests and is contributing to the extinction of many species, including orangutans.

Plus, how does flogging their Dove products to insecure women change the world? You can no more help your confidence than you can help your looks.

That hideous Mature Cheddar cheese ad with that awful buzzing noise the workers all get up & "dance" to it then sit down again after their break
Have to mute it every time the noise hurts my ears

The happy eggs advert with the strange dancing. Especially the man with the crate at the beginning.

The patronising cow with the stargazer lilies with the over fifty senior plan, in practically every add break on Sky news.

Can't stand her!

Makes a change to see Matt Berry on an advert rather than just a voice. Wonder how many voice overs he has done ?
If the money is right some people will advertise any old muck.

I really hate that advert

They are dancing before they sit down to eat their eggs

Why would you do that
