I like those adverts. laugh

Pointless Johnny Depp "what am I looking for" bks pretentious monologue aftershave advert is currently doing my head in, and I normally enjoy the absurdity of perfume adverts.

The new Aviva ad debuted this evening. It looks like we're going to be treated to an entire series of adverts featuring a group of extended family members all competing to see who is the safest driver using the Aviva driving app banghead

Edit - Oh and also the new Meerkat one asking you to repeatedly hashtag whether you think Sergei should shag Nicole Kidman or return to his closet relationship with Aleksander.

I know I should hate the Thomas Cook advert but for some reason I actually like it.

I do find it quite funny too, although I do also predict Thomas Cook as being one company 'going to the wall' in 2016

In bad taste too IMO.

The advert on the radio.
Dunno what it's for but it goes like.

"Get your coat"
"Get the keys"
"Get ........"

A man and woman just hysterically shouting.

I managed to avoid most of the current Tesco ads for quite a while but now I've seen them and I'm honestly astonished. Tesco is the largest retailer in the UK and has an enormous marketing budget. It is presumably run by people who know what they're doing to some extent.

So how on earth did they think that the current ads are good enough? They're just utter st and I hope the guy playing the son never works again.

Agree regarding the ads. I imagine the ad team in front of the Tesco board saying " We have a great campaign based on the premise you need to be a complete t**t to shop at Tescos". Hey great lets spend lots of the marketing budget on that one then!!
I think you are being a bit harsh on the actor playing the son. If he is paid to act like a complete tosser then he is doing a good job.

Well the Tesco Christmas efforts have unanimously been voted the worst EVER.

Anyhoo.

The Harvey's advert ,there's someone tap dancing or summat in the background but it sounds like someone keeps

knocking on a door.

Irritating.

I've sworn to never set foot in a Tesco, ever again, on seeing these. And I like Ruth Jones and Ben Miller.
