If you look at nearly all car adverts the registration will be symmetrical. So "808 TIT" So when they flip the image in post production it's still readable.
pretty sure that's bks. It would take about 5 seconds to photoshop the reg the right way round, or put a locally relevant one on instead. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeviPeovW2U

Pretty sure it's not. All regs that are readable if mirrored
You're Welcome!

I've highlighted the salient point for you since you want to overlook it. But as you decided to quote it anyway
As above I uses 808 TIT which uses SYMMETRICAL letters. T, 8 etc.

Thou dost protest too much
There's an advert on daytime TV for holiday insurance aimed at people with known illnesses, can't remember the company name. I swear it's been made by the same advertising agency that made those compo ads along the lines of " BUT WILL I GET 100% OF THE COMPENSATION!". The actress leading the scenario feels she has to SHOUT her lines directly at the camera.
"EVEN IF I AM TAKING MEDICATION!??!!??!" FFS calm down. I can hear you.
I watch a bit of afternoon TV - I'm retired now and like a quiz show. Sadly I'm the prime target of these shows. They're interspersed by endless ads for funeral insurance plans, suggesting that perfectly intelligent and capable people won't have made any plans whatsoever. The ads are set in well-furnished, comfortable and spotless homes showing well-dressed and responsible middle-class retirees who suddenly realise they haven't got the £3k required for a basic funeral. It's so ludicrous. They're sitting in a house worth £300k which you'd assume is mortgage-free. Why don't the ad agency use a bunch of scrotes sharing a Benson whilst the Staffie craps behind the settee? They're the people who haven't made provision.

They're getting so bloody self-referential as well - the one with the cheery old bloke going on about Parky and his pens while everyone spouts lines that makes Acorn Antiques look like a Tom Stoppard play."EVEN IF I AM TAKING MEDICATION!??!!??!" FFS calm down. I can hear you.

Another one on daytime TV is Whats my Claim Worth with the worst comedy acting I think I have seen in some time by a pink hoodie wearing woman trying to be a Vicky Pollard type who's got a stapler stuck to her thumb or has had an accident doing her hair using a bike mirror and got ran over or lost an eyebrow etc etc not funny just annoying.

There's an annoying ad for holidays which implies that because you just don't bother for the other 51 weeks of the year, you will only earn your child's love by taking it on holiday and jumping in a sodding swimming pool with it.
However even more annoying than that is the use of that sodding generic 'child's laugh' sound file that every advert in the whole world seems to use whenever a child's laugh is required, I find it really creepy.

Probably been done before, but that cr*ppy Samsung S7 phone-dropped-in-sink-when-girl-calls advert. Annoying "tac tic tic" clichéd French love song, not-that-hot female love interest, and some sap with a high-pitched voice who acts like a child. Awful advert. Can't believe it has not been canned.
