Theres one of the loan companies that announce its interest rate as one two seven two percent apr,sounds so much better than one thousand two hundred and seventy two percent.

Speaking of the loan sharks.

QuickQuid - Waitress begging for extra hours & gets told no by her boss before saying it's not her fault she had the flu last week and then seeking out said high interest loan.

In fairness, judging by the "boss" that's telling her no to the extra hours, and the expression on his face whilst he says it, he looks like the sort of boss who gets too touchy feely with the ladies in the workplace so she'd probably be better off if she just sued for sexual harassment instead of taking out a high interest loan hehe

Also - Stanton-Fisher now appear to be parodying (or at least I hope it's a parody and not actually meant to be serious) Liam Neeson and his "I don't know who you are ...." speech in Taken. Cringeworthy.

And the guy sounds like Nigel Farage.

Simpsons style all I hear is in a Troy McLure voice "Hi I'm William Devane, you might remember me from such self-help videos as "Smoke Yourself Thin", and "Get Confident, Stupid.".

Appallingly bad advert for gold coins - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eMVgY4VC4Y

Is the butler Jim Tavaré?

Gladstone Brookes: "After all, it's what we do".

32 red, winners are welcome. Stealing a parking space doesn't make you a winner, it makes you an ahole.

And that Joe Hart advert where he has a hair hygiene issue. Skin crawlingly bad.

Anybody seen the new Jag XF ad?

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SVoCMLAQ2_w

A low grade rip off of the famous Audi ad from the 90's.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7qI4no2xDco

Ironically it leaves you thinking that the clichéd morons they are lampooning actually drive Jags.
Unfortunate.

That ad brings back some good memories of quality, well thought out advertising. A shame today's ads mostly consist of CGI 'transformer like' French cars or smiling happy families laughing and joking as if all their cares have disappeared as a result of their car!

The ones for Fage yoghurt are really annoying, some woman suggesting that nature isn't great, but their yoghurt is. If the ads were only on occasionally, it wouldn't be a problem, but every break I get told how an avocado or blueberries could be improved. I think it's her voice that gets to me.

I think the advertising suits may have missed the point when they did the one for Tena'a "pants for ladies who pee themselves with sensitive bladders.
They offer a free discreet bag for them,which they then proceed to show what it looks like on national TV!

Yes heavy irony all round.

Although from the aggressive driving from new Jag drivers I've been noticing on my morning schlep round the m25, it appears that Jag will soon be sharing the same owner profile as Audi/BMW.

The guarantor must be home owner if you use Amigo.

That's a right, its a secured payday loan company.
