Karcher window cleaner. She is doing the inside and he is doing the outside and yet there are no streaks visible.

Which shows that doing it the old fashioned way makes no difference.
It goes without saying that she's doing it right and he's doing it wrong. rolleyes
That is the fashion...

I think his income dried up when Channel 5 stopped showing 'Demolition Man' on a continuous rolling loop.

I enjoyed this. SS running up the steps of Bolton town hall was funny.

On a related topic, why does George Clooney need to peddle some awful coffee maker? He's not short a few quid as far as I'm aware.

George Clooney said:
"Most of the money I make on the [Nespresso] commercials I spend keeping a satellite over the border of North and South Sudan to keep an eye on Omar al-Bashir [the Sudanese dictator charged with war crimes at The Hague]. Then he puts out a statement saying that I'm spying on him and how would I like it if a camera was following me everywhere I went and I go 'well welcome to my life Mr War Criminal'. I want the war criminal to have the same amount of attention that I get. I think that's fair."

that vodaphone advert where it shows 9 year old children doing that "palming the dollar" trick that american hip hop rappers do to show how rich they are. How low can this country sink? I fully expect to see pre pubescent girls "twerking" in some advert soon. Why do we think its acceptable to tell our kids that the relentless chase for money is all that matters.

Another one that boils my piss is the fking post code lottery advert. When that comes on, I switch channel instantly, but then its on the channel I switched to, so I switch again, and its on there as well, so I spend 5 minutes effectively chasing that fking advert around before I even try to remember what I was watching in the first place. Disgusting advert full of pointless Z listers in exactly the advert they are supposed to be in.

There's a new EDF ad which is dubbed into English. WTF? Do we not give EDF enough squillions every year for them to film their ad in English?

If it's the same ad that I'm thinking of, the sheer length of it annoyed me. It doesn't work as I can never remember who it's for until they stick the Vodafone* logo on the end, it just smacks of "we make so much money we can have this massive long advert that doesn't really even talk about what we're trying to sell".

  • - Interesting, I typed the company name in lower case, and something changed it to a capital V.

Just saw this one for the first time....The dubbing is terrible!, they haven't even attempted to match the actors mouths to anything said.
