Very clever!
Apart from hating their ads this annoys the heck out of me ... grapes and all sorts of food for that dog to eat and the most likely die while they are asleep.

Clear food away so no pets can get to it

Oak Furnitureland - where all the furniture is 100% solid wood... which it wasn't when they were found out a couple of months ago(!)

Nearly £1,200 to build a model of a "Back To The Future" DeLorean car ??
I don't think so !
Do as I did, and go back to 1955 and bet on the Chicago Cubs to win the World Series. Then keep betting. Easy!

I hate this advert for that very reason, makes my teeth itch and I'd cheerfully slap her to shut her up. Horrible, whiny voice.

+1 ...dreadful affectation with speech! .....add vocal fry and AQI, and I'd gladly have all such people forcibly sent to elocution lessons.

Just seen the bastard meerkats doing the let it snow bit from Frozen.

Has it come to this now that they have so much money that they can buy the rights to song and animation sequences from Disney?

DISNEY FFS?

I thought it was bad enough the muppets selling out to a bread company, but I didn't think Disney were short of cash.

The fact is dave, that you're talking about it is proof to Go Compare that they chose the right format for their advertising.

I really hate the woman on the Argos advert when she says Argos

It is like she loves saying it. Also she sounds like she wants us to know that it is Argos advert and her voice so annoying
"Just can't wait for Christmas?" That one?

She was p****ng me off in November.

: Disney's done deals with advertisers since the 1930s.

That pretty much applies to every comment made about every ad on this thread! No such thing as bad publicity!

People used to have day out there when you could go onto the observation platform. Which was shut then the IRA started their fun and games. Likewise, motorway services were destination restaurants!

I think the bears are quite cute, perhaps bordering on nauseating. And as you say, why on earth advertise Heathrow?
Do the bears actually go on a flight or meet someone, as they are just standing there as people get off the plane and. that's it! Might still be there!

The whistling's back with a vengeance. Benson's for Beds. Doesn't contribute a thing to the commercial, it's just tuneless and annoying. I'm in the fortunate position of actually being in the market for a new mattress so I have the pleasure of being able to deliberately avoid a vendor on the basis of their appalling advertising!
I hate that advert, so does my dog, she barks her head off at the whistling.

Also hating James Cordon on the confused.com advert. FFS why is this smug unfunny lump all over my TV?

Up to a point, I think you're right, Baz. But....then there are awkward so and sos like me who would go out of their way to avoid any product where the commercial p****es them off!

You've probably seen a shortened version of the advert but the version I've seen we see the bears struggling to take their cases off the carousel which suggests they have just come back from somewhere

After the carousel, it looks like they're being met and also the lyrics of the Chas & Dave -y song talks about "goin' back to see the old place where I come from" or some such

They even made a advert where people watched him on TV getting really angry squeezing a can and then had people trying to kill the bastard obviously they must have gotten complaints about the ad to get that idea.

I saw this one today

She looks about 80 years old or a 30 years old who has had a hard life!

The Nationwide adverts with the crappy poems are pretty bad.

Sorry McColl but you appear to have mis-spelt "electrocution"
