ineed. The car is aimed at the mobile phone obsessed teen/twenties market. They don't give a fk how good the car is as they can't afford to insure the car they want, or they don't care full stop about cars.

in that case it's good marketing, however yes there is annoyance... i'd say it's more at teens for being so vacuous though!

Any ad in which a woman/girl lowers her eyes,smiles coyly and puts her hand to her nose. A bit like the latest Lorraine Kelly one withe the dancers in the cafe.

I went to the cinema for the first time in ages last week and was annoyed by the current Freederm advert. Not so much the advert itself but the way they kept showing a tiny bit of it as a "tease" between all the other crap adverts.

The main bit:

I seen the ad last night. Just smacks of a focus group doesn't it?

wker 1: What does freederm mean to you?
wker 2: Well it kind of sounds like freedom, I guess that what you were aiming for, right?
wker 1: Yes absolutely, so define freedom.
wker 2: Umm, flying?
wker 1: Yes! give that man a cookie. Lets do an advert with a bird flying around. And no one will know what the fk it's supposed to be for until the end when we just plaster a name on it and call it advertising. Everyone OK with that?
wker 2: Does that mean we can go and collect our big advertising cheque?
wker 1: Why yes it does!
wker 2: OK that's fine with me.
wker 1: Pub?
wker 2: You read my mind.

Utter wkers.

Freederm. Nope, still sounds like a feminine hygiene product.

The hotel advert where the guy goes from a five to a seven to eventually an 11 as the woman discovers he good the hotel is. So what's in it for the bloke? He's turned into a hunk yet his missus is still a fat buck-toothed frump that started off as a two and went down to a one with her awful dress sense and middle aged librarian hairstyle.

all those made in SA adverts, no, it's not England, so stop pretending, the UK number plates are not fooling anyone in that street, with that road furniture and those road markings! And it seems to be nearly all of them, do we not make and properly shoot adverts in the UK anymore?
Which adverts are they then, I have never noticed.
