"Ah, what a heartwarming example of religious tolerance", thinks absolutely no-one. I think it's for kneepads.

Those of you who are familiar with the Derek and Clive track "Hello Colin" may well have a rude word pop into your head when the Priest pauses at the door having said goodbye to the Imam.

It is a VERY rude word.
I accidentally clicked on the Sugababes link above; far more offensive than this!

Apparently it's the "in" thing to jilt someone at your wedding. It's aspirational
That as is awful, why is she apologising to her Father and not the poor guy she jilted?
She just comes across as a complete bitch.

Also it's not the only one. There was another one where he had a condo apparently. It's pathetic.

If you don't like someone, don't agree to marry them!
Its not like they are portraying people who are forced into marriages

Exactly, it's ridiculous unless she is being forced to marry her father!
And had she been cheating on the jilted groom with helicopter guy?

I don't like the advert with the dementia ridden Santa
I can appreciate its a well made ad, with the animation etc... but it's sad

but think of the advantages, one only needs to by one book, one DVD, always enjoy the same jokes, the latter is why I like to play old people rest homes

That is utterly distasteful

Alright I laughed and now I'm trying to pretend that I'm angry to hide that fact

It's almost on a par with any of the "Ga-la-la-la" Gala Bingo ads

Think it's Amazon prime where the couple think the day has gone well then she gives him a book of baby names.

The way they are talking it's like they have only just met, there's zero chemistry to add to the bad acting, no way have they made a baby!!
All of the above, and the fact she's wearing a hideous matted, shrunken, woolly grey jumper on Christmas Day.
She could have made an effort.

I just had to look it up. OH GOD WHY?!!!

I just used one of those Youtube double video sites to have the ad playing with no sound and the Shakin' Stevens original on. It fits well. Why did they have to use this garbage?!

I don't want to throw a brick at the TV, I actually do throw a brick at the TV, costing me a fortune in TVs, but the good news is, my aim is getting better

Getting snowchains delivered during the christmas period when it's been snowing heavily? Good luck with that! Delivery schedules are already a nightmare without having to stop/start to add/remove the driver's own chains! Did you pay the 'by helicopter at the weekend or on a bank holiday' premium? Why when you live in a part of the country that sometimes needs snowchains do you not already effing have some? This is a level of incompetence bordering on outright illegal! And in some countries it rightfully is!

Yes, let's order some snowchains so we can send the burdensome oldies away on time why bother letting them waste the petrol when you can just use the chains to weigh them down in the pond...

I was thinking the same thing. I drove from Manchester to Stoke on Trent one January when the snow decided to descend heavily along the way and by the time I got near to where I was going, I had to abandon my car by a shop while my mate came to pick me up (he knew the roads better). He drove back to his house and rather than go out anywhere major after that, we just walked (skidded) to the pub round the corner.

The next morning I saw it was a good job I didn't make it to his house as the snow had fallen so heavily I wouldn't have got up the hill onto the connecting road. When I called a taxi to take me back to my car, he wisely wouldn't come down the road. I dread to think how many days I'd have been stuck there.

PMSL!

Just looked it up on Youtube and wish I hadn't. Abysmal.

I can just imagine the hardened gambler, unshaven, hunched over the tablet, prodding away at that 'elves of the woods' game or 'alaskan blizzard' or 'enigmatic nefertiti' and apparently everyone is expected to recognise these games*. I've heard of poker and roulette and furious feathered fiends and the epic tale of squashed boiled sweets but these are obviously speaking to those 'in the know' or I should just be having a go because they are addictively flashy tinkly beepy things to do when I'm bored and it's only 10p and 10p and 10p and another 10p...



* and I hope I haven't accidentally named any!

Added to which, she looks like one of those horrid aunts you might have had when you were six, leering down at you with nostrils flaring, you just want to slap her with a wet fish.

The Facebook live advert

Not because it's particularly annoying (in fact the people in it are actually broadcasting things worth putting live ) but sadly it will encourage idiots who think it's cool broadcasting live when they unwrap a DVD or some rubbish
