The latest 'Postcode Lottery' ad with that dreadful woman with the black hair. She's really scary in that last shot, I think she may be possessed!

Bristol Street Motors - "Confirm offer" - shut up you utter pleb maybe you should have been listing the first time she said it?

Emmerdale studio experience - sorry, I like Emmerdale, but this advert is a big load of shite. That woman is walking around as if she has got borderline down syndrome, mouth hanging open etc... Stupid cow, I refuse to believe walking around some sets is that entertaining.

The irony of using a song from someone that tragically died in a car crash to sell car insurance is a bit much.

No, naff off. We don't need your sort here!

Seriously, at our work, rather than the Friday day it's meant to take place on, we have it on a Weds for those people who don't work on a Friday*.

(*Oh, think of the fun they're missing out on! )

I really cannot stand him


Another one here for the awful charity/ begging adverts. I hit the mute or channel change buttons at lightning speed

I think he is making a fool of himself in that ad. He's shouting like an idiot dressed as a fairy.......he must really need the money to embarrass himself like that.

Yes you are you attitude problem woman!

What is it with sanitary towel adverts and stroppy women?”

Have you seen the Emoji ad from Always ? it's terrible. These feminist ad's from Always are completely false and not a true reflection of the lives of young girls. From my experience, girls were always encouraged to get into sports and nobody ever said to them that they couldn't play because they are a girl.

Why all the people in the postcode lottery ads seemingly deranged?

I agree; but sadly the 'boom' community probably think it's really funny...

Gala Bingo - I've sussed what sets ISIS off. They hear that woman trilling "Ga-la-la-la" to "Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye" on the Gala Bingo advert. I know it gets right on my nipple ends!

(and now there's an alternative version of that one. Instead of the camera going off to the right as CGI calamity ensues all around her, and then comes back just as the shoe stand thing falls over), the camera now stays put. Why bother with either?

Vanish - Hey, let's pretend we have our own Youtube-style channel where you can only upload videos of how great our product is! GAAAAAHHHH!!!

Wickes - Perfect middle class family, including bearded father who has a stack of champagne ready to dispense to guests in the kitchen (as if they haven't got a lounge for sitting down in), and a daughter who's shown stuffing her face straight from the fridge (which we gathered already). And add a plinky-plonky piano that stops just short of the pointless high-pitched "Fa-fa-fa" noise that a woman makes, but in the process sounds like the intro to "I Dreamed A Dream". Just horrible.

I can't even understand what the latest one is saying. Can they give us subtitles?

The hen-pecked husband one amuses me, but I'd like an alternative version where the wife asks if she can bring her mother on holiday, and he retorts "No! (insert swear words here)"

The Muller ads with Nicole whatsherface "hilariously" falling over and getting yoghurt on her nose.

Any perfume ad where a scantily-clad woman writhes around orgasmically on the floor with a bottle of scent.

Ads which promote cosmetic gloop which is full of chemicals with scientific-sounding names. WTF is "Filloxane"? (Just googled it, apparently it fixes cracks in windscreens! )

That nappy ad with the tagline "Where does all the pee go?".....Urrgghh.

Any ad with Davina McCall in it.

I'd never, mercifully, seen Corden in anything up till now but that advert is enough to make me dislike him intensely!

Excellent detective work there! So is it cheaper to buy as actual windscreen fixer or should we nip into the local cosmetics shop after being 'gravelled' and save a few quid? Or the other way round, with the skincare specialists discreetly purchasing their supplies in Halfords*?



* other places to buy car-related stuff are also available

The worst advert is the PPI ad that plays on various channels during daytime. It's starts with "What's going on?". I find the man's voice and dialogue so annoying, and the fact the ad gets played numerous times on the same channels makes it even more unbearable. The channel now gets immediately switched over when I see the opening seconds of the ad.

I don't even remember the name of the law firm he's trying to pimp, that's how uneffective the advert is.

I think that all the traffic lights are fitted with blubber sensors.
