Don't care what he advertises, but I do love Alec Baldwin's dramatic delivery.
This! I'm keeping the phone..

Can't believe how old this ad is now!

Probably my favourite ad (apart from Um Bongo thumbup)

Sorry, I know it's not meant to be a "historical" thread.

Nationwide.
A bloke in a cafe just chatting.
Love it, so simple, so entertaining...juxtaposed to the moneysupermarket effort on before it, so desperate.

I like the new Maltezers one where the girl holds 2 in her hand. In her left hand she says it;s hers, but the right hand says it his, who she spotted kissing another girl outside the office. She flicks it away and tells him he's going back to stay with his Mum, ending with "Off you go".

If only she'd say "F**k off", it would be real magic.
Have you seen the latest...

I nearly gave up at the start because I thought it was serious but I'm glad I stuck with it, she's really funny!

The Alpecin shampoo advert based on the 80's Castrol GTX oil advert brought a nostalgic smile (you need to be a certain age)

Saw that earlier today and it did raise a chuckle. The new P&O Ferry advert uses Joe Jackson's 'Stepping Out' as a soundtrack, not fussed about the ferries but hearing that song again after so many years brought a few happy memories back.

No decent adverts since January?

Ok, this may because I have the sense of humour of a child hehe , but I do like the Hotels.com ad with Captain Obvious the beardy American guy and Howard from the old Halifax ads...

"Toby's just done a big wee down the stairs"

"Wrong ad Howard!"

I quite enjoyed the new Anchor advert when I saw it yesterday.

Pokes a bit of fun at Google Home / Amazon Echo, etc, by having the Grandma asking herself what Anchor spreadable is whilst looking in the fridge and the talking assistant replies, but she thinks it was the Anchor tub talking to her.

Cut to the 2 grandchildren joking that maybe it's time to contact a nursing home at which point the talking assistant announces where the nearest one is.

I never really listened to the advert, I could not have told you what it was for before I read your post, I just watched it, like a cat watches a mouse.

I think Miss Scherzinger and her Muller ads have been mentioned a few times in the opposite to this thread but I've never had a problem with them.

Only 20 years late but Steve McQueen in a Puma is the best ad EVER.

Plenty of 'pausing' opportunity.

You're welcome.
