Sorry to sound hard hearted, but the Wateraid ads are getting on my nerves. Those kids all look very well nourished and hydrated to me.
The 'all these blacks look the same to me' argument taken to a new low.

have you got a loud shouty voice
can you talk very fast
can you sound very sincere
do you have no feeling of moral responsibilities for your actions
there is a job in TV advertizing for YOU, visit www.adjobs4u.com or call 08704ADJOBS
Really, really, really pissing people off as they have to wait ages for the local and national news, while ITV plug their relality shite!

And now 'tis the season for all those extra ads for kids toys where there's only 3000 to collect eachsoldseparatelybatteriesnotincludedgetparentspermissionfortheinternetkeepawayfromchildrenwaitnothatsthesoapadssomerestrictionsapply
now on mainstream TV not just the babysitter hypno-box channels.


Love the way that word is just not handled properly

That advert for that money-saving website with the bald, bearded guy sitting on the hippo. He seriously gives me the creeps.

And those kitchen roll ads with the Spanish guy saying 'one sheet' in the over-the-top accent. Is it supposed to sound quite so much like he's saying 'one s***'?

Ironically I think David should have shot himself after the first line, since HHH is not an acronym, just a set of initials. An acronym spells out a word.

I hope that Oasis sue Sainsburys for ripping off Wonderwall so blatantly.

The female is lighter brown and does not have such a bright red chest as the male.
That may be true of the American Robin, but not so with the European Robin - the type featured in the advert. On the other hand, they may be gay.

I HATE Christmas TV adverts - all of them (even though the animals in the John Lewis one are rather cute).

Barnardo's. Murdering 'Everybody Wants to Rule the World'.

Another Oxo ad I hate, where they've forgotten they've got dinner guests. Said guests mention 'dessert', and the 'charming' kids spill the beans about them being forgotten. Where do they find these awful kids??

Tesco Ireland have started rolling out their twee, saccharine Xmas adverts where "ordinary" people read out letters for their mothers.
The new one is particularly galling where a man on the verge of tears waffles on about his mother's special potato stuffing

Quite cute yes, but I hate Christmas itself.

Why does no-one in an advert ever do a decent cover version?

'What the hell- xmas stuff already? I still smell after my family tried to throw me on the bonfire'

So wait a second... have Tesco just created a Christmas advert that is complaining about Christmas adverts?

I can't even...

Any Christmas advert. From the end of November to after Christmas I avoid "live" TV like the plague. Cannot stand any of this sanctimonious, sickly sweet, "we are all the perfect family and are all enjoying this enforced fun together" twaddle. Absolute commercial tediousness rolled out every year! Bag humbug!

They make block bookings (I used to work for them), lucky only to get 3! You can often get Ariel, Lenor, Pantene, Olay, Fairy and Pampers en bloc.

The animals are done beautifully. I saw two badgers today, both dead by the side of the road. In the country you don't see as many foxed as in towns, maybe cos there's more food.
