The new PDSA one has yet another irritating breathy cover version, this time of "I only want to be with you" with limp acoustic guitar accompaniment.

"I'm picking my flight, I'm picking my flight, I missed my flight"

Is that their target consumer?

Yes U Switch, internet & electricity prices may sometimes annoy me, but not as much as Philip Glennister does every time your advert is broadcast.

I couldn't find a 'good' adverts thread.

There are two that make me chuckle at the moment.

Vinnie Jones and his AGROTRON for the lottery, I'd love to see more of that and would ask where I could buy one.

The "Terms and conditions Man" e-bay ad also, very funny.





And the Chicken Madras, Chicken Madras women, same, she looks like a lot of fun...
I know there's a thread for it and all, but I gotta admit, the new Bachelors Soup advert with Joey Essex properly made me laugh.

And the Lloyds Bank one with the massive black horse rampaging through the hospital, though that seems to be a breathy piano-y version of the already-depressing cover of Mad World.

I'm not sure if this is an advert per se but it needs criticising.

Yesterday channel has brief promotional gubbins at the start and end of the commercial break. These have general knowledge QI-type facts.

The one in question says: The tongue has marks which are as unique as fingerprints.

Not a third world problem I suppose, but still irritation for its casual errors.

The advertising on the Daily Mail homepage. Takes up both the head and sides of the page, scrolls with you. Most annoying on my iPad mini. Current advert is dogs trust.

Can this be gotten rid of any way?

Yes, I read the DM. As it's free (ish).

He doesn't like to live in terms of "black & white" evidently (da-dum-tish).

There's also one with a couple of beavers, because they like doing DIY as it keeps them "busy beavers" (again ba-dum-tish).

I suppose B&Q had to do something to rival the recent Homebase ones.

i can't see that going anything other than the way the advertiser had hoped.
