The Ever Ready (or it might be Duracell, I'm not sure) 'recycled' battery advert where the kid puts a toy dinosaur into his magic recycling box and a real dinosaur trashes his house. It's not the ad itself, it's the fact it says 'fictionalisation' at the beginning. It's a fking dinosaur! They're not alive anymore!?!

Probably been mentioned way back but I'm getting really bored with Paul Whitehouse and his chest waders.

A good call. Especially as some of them promote their big brother driving app.

I agree, it's very bizarre.

HP pavilion with that girl singing asking for a computer. When it goes close up to her I want to smack her in the face.

Quoting my own post from above for effect on that one...

That pushy mature facially hirsute old geezer with the "Book of Gold Coins" you can buy and own rudely thrusting it under people's noses. Reality it is not.

Nothing against gold coinage but, there must be better ways to get folks interested enough to start buying them.

Pounds-to-Pocket's latest effort is just as piss poor as their previous ones.

Zibidoo, Zibidoo, Zibidoo, Ah.

I presume the creators of that advert were high on something at the time as it's rather weird considering what it's evidently advertising.

The Ribena advert does include some African Pygmy Hedgehogs, so I approve ... As does mine, Kimi Spikkonen:

Oh yeah, the Ribena one is at least different. Much better than ones like the new Toyota Auris with the lie detector. That's 2 annoying ads that guy is in now, although at least he's found an alternative job after the Enterprise adverts hehe

Off topic, but nice hog smile Currently have 5 visiting our back garden on a nightly basis. At least 2 adults that have been around the past couple of years, 2 that are probably about a year or so old, and 1 very tiny recent addition in the last 2 weeks that skitters round the garden at full pelt, so he's been named Usain hehe

They're certainly costing a fair bit in feeding them every night given what they consume with the mealworms, hedgehog food, etc, hehe but it's well worth it to see them in the garden smile

I like that Ribena add too.

My cats found a young adult hedgehog down the garden the other night. They weren't attacking it, just watching and showing off a bit. I got them in and left it some cat food, which was all gone by morning. Hopefully it's living under my shed.

There was a larger one last year in the hedge that was hissing like a snake at them. I never knew they did that.

It sound's like "Goldie Looking Chain" singing that advert. I could be wrong though.

Bank/building society advert with a small boy who waffles about his parents buying a house and then says "so they could have me!". But they didn't need to own a house so they could have you. Some people in the world do just have kids cos they want to, but yours just wanted you cos you are part of their conformist, middle class lifestyle plan and they obviously don't really love you.

I'll get my socialist coat.

They needed a house so that one of their parents didn't walk in on them arm in arm on the sofa watching TV.

The shame of it!

Brian the fking Robot, I can barely remember which product he's advertising because now the adverts are all about Brian and his cybernetic chums. This is a more chilling prophecy of the future than Skynet ever was.
