Adverts that make you wanna smash your TV set up.

Grrr - now the BBC have got in to the breathy wet-arse female vocal version of "Merry Christmas Everyone" over their Christmas in-between program "bits". Hate, hate, hate.

Another vote for a porker
This time the one in the LIDL turkeys advert
I don't even believe these people do tweet LIDL I think its bks made up to fit in with the advert and the last thing the roly poly wants is early xmas dinners. She would be ste on any farm as she can hardly lift anything and it would take her all night to get the turkeys in.
I'm not totally against fat women as some of you may gleam from my other posts but its not a good idea to have them promoting things before xmas

Evidently lots of women have complained to the ASA / Lidl about the advert content because of the demeaning / condescending attitude towards the female "customer" when the male farmer asks her "have you ever done any manual labour?"

When I told my mum that, after she'd watched the advert last night, her response was that if the advert does put women in a bad light it's not due to the farmer asking a perfectly normal and valid question, but because the "customer" is a stupid, vacuous idiot for coming out with views / tweets about the farmer, farming, the turkey farm, etc, like "So where are these Lidl (in place of little) turkeys then?" and "oh, I thought it would be like a turkey prison".

Nice one mum

Can I ask you to ask your Mum if she actually believes the woman tweeted LIDL in the first place ?Genuinely everytime the LIDL ads have come up in conversation every one thinks its bks.

Surely if it's on the telly it must be true? Surely?

The Lindt chocolate ads.

I don't believe they make chocolates like that.

Oh. Perhaps they do. That's why they are so expensive!

Yep, this one. Felt my blood pressure rising by the second....

The family who don't seem very happy at the prospect of inheriting a £150,000 plus traction engine.

The storm that can take the roof off the house but not the washing off the line.

The man of today in his little brothers suit and talking like a proper wker.

Amazon again - this time for Clarkson & co / Grand Tour. Watching 4Music this afternoon, between 4 & 6 and it ran on every single advert break

Are they not getting the viewing figures they were hoping for as the amount of advertising running at the moment just seems overly excessive.

Since when has Braun been pronounced Brown?

New advert for shavers.

And, it ends with the voiceover man saying something like "See our website for more Brown products". Er, no thanks, sounds horrible.

The Hungry House advert where two rather camp individuals sitting on a sofa are shouting at each other about Prawn balls and Chicken balls.

Yes. Those Gogglebox rip off adverts can just go away now. Gogglebox is bad enough

[J4CKO]

Any perfume/aftershave advert, load of wk, and Johnny Depp burying stuff in the desert somehow seems a bit wrong after allegations of domestic violence, how many people just think "He has done her in this time", and its almost called "Sausage".

Its all the sexual imagery, devilishly handsom blokes dressed for the casino, clicking their fingers and women come running, sad really that most who get it will be 18 year old spotty virgins.

[WJNB]

Many of the Xmas ones but most especially the John Lewis one for multiple reasons I will have to let you guess.

[FourWheelDrift]

Multi-coloured yeti's skating on snow perhaps?

I wonder what went through the ad agencies head with that one, are the grunting hair monsters supposed to the the customers or the staff?

Yes the perfume ads are a bit annoying, much better just to fill every mailbox in the country with free samples of their scent, who doesn't love a perfume/aftershave freebie. I'd maybe even buy it after that. Less weird too.
