That Nationwide advert with the thin weedy voice going "I'll keep you safe" is getting more annoying by the week banghead

Same goes for the Lloyds Bank ad with a similar song.

Sky Q banghead Seems to be being advertised in nearly every single advert break during premium time. Even the regular adverts are occasionally being mashed up with the Sky Q "bubbles" on the screen from time to time as well.
This one for me. Superb CGI but after all that you think 'WTF is it?' (...'never mind, here's another advert...). Are they hoping everyone will Google it? What retard signed off an advert with no product???!!

Not a TV advert, but there's a trailer playing on Radio 1 at the moment where someone refers to "Kingston, Jamaica, the spiritual home of reggae music". I thought Jamaica was the actual home of reggae, a brief look on Wiki seems to agree.

The one selling lawyering - Gladstone Brookes. The bloke says 'you and I' when it should be 'you and me'. Object : subject. It isn't difficult.

Can't help but wonder if they had seen the original music video for Big Bad Wolf before they chose it, I think not.

Big Bad Wolf
That's so bizarre but hilarious, especially the ping pong ball part.

They've been going for what feels like years, but the Haribo adverts with grown ups with kids voices never fail to get seriously disturbing.

Someone must like them though, as they keep making more of the bloody things!

The current Fairy Liquid advert where the kid wants the bottle to make a rocket. Can't they think of something just a little more original? The new shape bottle isn't even censored rocket shaped. irked

The living wage ad on the radio.

"it's a step up for hard workers"

It's not is it, it's a step up for everyone earning less that the new rate hard working or not.

Those crap Halifax adverts they seem to play all the time- currently starring the fat dad with the fat kids on holiday. I am fed up of seeing this crap advert with the salad-dodgers face every 5 minutes!
YES!! If he were a caring father he would:

Not over feed himself or his children causing them to shorten there lives. They are only 8 or 10 but already hugely overweight and blubbery.

Refrain from killing insects by hitting them against a wall in the apartment. This is criminal damage and standing on the bed is both dangerous and a poor lesson. How awful must it be fir the next occupants to have dead Mosquitos over the wall above their bed?

Not spray sun tan cream on them so they need to stand quaking in fear.

I cannot stand this fat git, his fat kids or the advert.

"Mummy or McCain" as part of the "McCain Family" adverts.

Particularly the 2 kids mouthing at their dad "cun ya tell ba da smell...cun ya tell ba da taste...cun ya tell anifink".

Also, when did fathers stop cooking roast dinners?, as the advert seems to suggest only "mummy" is capable of doing so now confused Or are they suggesting that "mummy" is only capable of cooking pre-packed, pre-prepared and part cooked McCain roast potatoes, rather than preparing them from a fresh potato? confused
