Watching "Meet The Penguins" earlier this evening on ITV and every advert break was started or finished with an awful, crappy "Nationwide - sponsoring Real Life" skit vomit

Also, during Humans, Go Compare premiered their new one which appears to be the start of bringing back the opera singer.

Not so much the ad but the current Compare The Market offering with Arnie.

Is he really so hard up or do they have so much cash to throw around.

I thought the earlier one may have been an edited spliced together effort but clearly not as he seems to be in for a series.

I'd have thought that the reason he's in the advert is that it doubles as an advert for his latest film. Presumably Compare the Market and the film studio are sharing the cost of the advert. It seems to me to be quite an astute move by both parties given the cost of primetime television advertising.

The ao.com advert where the woman needs to get a new fridge to store food in for her kids baking or something.

Fridge arrives, but it needs to settle before being switched on and wouldn't get cold for a while.
And AO sufferd a £2.9m loss last year !!

Who thought it was a great idea to sell products through contrived poems? Every fcensored ing advert seems to have a voice over poem going on. Best yet is rhyming "vocation" with "donation".

There's also the fact that someone does not have to win. Otherwise it would be called The National Tombola.
Yep - missed that. A misleading advert all round.

I love the expression on the woman at the end of the Duralax? advert. As she leaves the house she has this look that says "just left you a nice little present - so clean that toilet up cleaner"!

Toyota Yaris hybrid advert where the cars occupants are singing tunelessly to Bruno Mars. Has me reaching for the mute button each time.

Harvey Keitel in the Directline adverts. He looks far from being a scary gangster type now and totally mis-cast.

The new Nationwide adverts. Cringeworthy.

I tend to record most things now so I can fast forward the adverts!

it's not so much that it's a st idea, it just sounds like it's been made by an amateur on a zx spectrum. Really, really bad. Can't believe they paid for it and put it out there like that.

There's a new Money Supermarket ad that's marginally less annoying than the Sharon Osborne ad.

Go Compare. Just because the last lot of adverts were crap, doesn't mean that bloody singer was ever popular.
