Came on here to post the very same thing.
Worst advert on TV at the moment (Part 12)
128 of 162
I've said it before, that awful Oxo ad. where they've forgotten about the couple coming round for dinner. Cue panic, while they knock up a chicken casserole. When the chap refuses seconds as he's making room for dessert, the horrible kid tells him there isn't any. as they'd forgotten they were coming. Where do they get these butt ugly kids from? And why is Oxo making these nauseating ads? As if the one with the rude teenager wasn't bad enough. The old Oxo ads were quite iconic in their day. Sad reflection of the times?

And are you using the correct pronunciation of Blaupunkt?
Chanel using All Along the Watchtower in their fragrance ad!
Still though, it could be worse. It could've been some whiny girl singing a god awful twee cover of it.
Oh crap, I hope I haven't given the advertisers ideas!

Two adverts I currently dislike...
1) Dishonoured 2 using a rendition of Fleetwood Mac's Gold Dust Woman
2) Shpock. For some reason I just hate that name

Loved Dan Walker's one word comment at the end of that item - "Mad"!! I guess he'll have had his wrist slapped for that, but I completely agree with his sentiment.

Seems daft to ban it for health and safety, but I am glad it's gone. Awful ad.

Me too! She definitely thinks she looks dead young just coz she has had 60 kilos of botox in her face. Even though her face is super smooth, you can still tell she is in her mid to late 50's.

Weirdly, I don't find the Tesco ads as annoying as I did last Christmas!

That really irks me! I am sick of adverts that spend time praising and building up women, and ignoring or ridiculing men.

It's awful. Why the hell is this ad allowed to continue?
So basically, if you don't use Andrex, you are left with shit on your arse! 
Whose idea was this FFS?

I know I might not get much support in calling this the worst advert on TV, especially when the TK Maxx advert is still making me ready for the mute, but I'm my position it's right up there albeit for different reasons.”

Bless you!
It's not your FAULT. Please don't say or think that. I do hope you manage to have a baby soon. You poor thing.

It's annoying isn't it? and I hate James Corden on adverts! His voice, talking OR singing annoys me! (Only on adverts though.)

Any ad that involves butchering a classic song with some ghastly breathy voiced indie singer needs banning!
And that woman's voice in the Argos ad. Plus every sodding price is nine, nine, nine, ninety nine, nine ninety nine. It's a wonder she hasn't got RSI of the tongue.

I thought the Heinz advert had been taken off because it was shit. It was so people don't slit their wrists on sharp edges then.
I hated the Sainsbury's advert with its politically correct stop motion characters before I knew it was James Corden. Talks of it being the Christmas no.1. Please anything, even an X-Factor song.

Jeremy Clarkson doing his "aren't I a naughty boy" grin to camera while sending Amazon sticks over to Europe.
Music by Wagner.
Wagner and w**ker all in one ad.

What's to say it's not going to be like last year's over here - hardly any different to any other Friday. (I remember seeing a branch manager saying that they couldn't believe how many people hadn't showed up compared to 2014.)

I thought it was because people realised they were ripping off Anna Kendrick's Cup Song.

Watch out, we might get a warning for taking the thread off topic, LOL I wonder if there are any adverts for ingrowing toenail surgery that costs less than 5 grand??!!
The EE advert, Kevin certainly looks as if he could do with some Bacon.
Gladstone Brooks, the latest advert is very aggressive, not too far short of bullying.

At the beginning of that ad all the girls are wearing Christmas jumpers, except one that's wearing a headscarf?

My dad used to call that French company 'Rennult'. That generation again - and his last two cars were Skodas.
