This was on the radio but it's a continuation of the Just Eat ads.

The actors must go home in tears after humiliating themselves in those ads.

James Martin.. Asda

This guy has been on TV for years.. why is he so wooden on the Asda adverts.. he`s even worse on the radio versions.

He`s as bad as when a sportsperson has lines to read in an advert

The Sunlife one where the elderly dad is watching TV with his daughter. The acting is just so bad - "Oooh I love Parky, and his famous pen!"

It's a pen with 'Sunlife' printed on it, dude.
I can't believe the woman talks to her daughter about it and doesn't tell her husband. Unless she has signed up her toyboy to benefit when she pops her clogs.

The Lidl adverts are really annoying me at the moment

What makes someone want to travel the country to find out where their food comes from

I don't think he's really aiming his characterisation at the gay community is he? Gay guys don't as a rule prance around in tight shorts and stilettos with their arse sticking out...

Sky Broadband is absolute crap! There will be some days where I can get a decent 11.5 download speed but most of the time it drops as low as 4!
Hoping to get fibre soon.

Oh and another advert to add to the list of ads that butcher classic songs. Dogs Trust with this godawful twee cover of "I Only Want To Be With You". F**k off already!
This seem's to be happening more than ever now, enough it enough.

And I know the Dogs Trust does good work but 'only want to be with you' is a great lively track and turning it into what sounds like a post-mortem mourning of times gone by and no longer to happen ever again is not the way to sell what is a happy thing, a dog finding a home. They made it sound like an advert for an undertaker.
Well said! I have to reach for the mute button when it comes on. I support the Dogs Trust, and feel like writing to them to complain!

He's actually co presented This Morning recently, he was dreadful on that.
Being a chef doesn't automatically make someone a good presenter does it?
He seems to think so.

Because if you live in Islington, it is vital that food is "ethically sourced".
And all the "little people" must be made to only eat food that meets my personal ethical expections.

For some reason I hate the way the bloke says plenty on the G Tech vac ad. (Well apart from the entire ad.)

oh but the really camp ones do, you obviously haven't been in a gay bar, they behave like that in them, erm that is so I'm told not that I've ever been in one, particularly not the one one in Jermyn Street around behind the Vue Theatre,

I'm beginning to hope someone beats Usain Bolt at the Olympics thanks to those Virgin ads. I know he's Mr. Wonderful and everything, but he doesn't need to keep telling everyone.

The annoying Audi advert with cars driving around the shopping center accompanied by the Are You Being Served music.

Not seen that - really? Sounds an odd choice of music to associate with a prestige car maker like Audi.

I've been back a few pages and not seen any other mention of it, so here goes:

That Yorkshire Tea advert with a young lad practically in tears coursing through his frenetic day on a massive amount of nervous energy whilst spouting mad views about "Brewtopia". I'm concerned for his safety...

When I was in America buying a beer, I would always say, "have you got any beer with alcohol in it"? of course they don't understand irony and would just give me a strange look.
yes, of course you did.
