I dont hate this advert - just wonder whether advertising excecs actually think things through before putting an ad together:

The new Branflakes ad - the one with the olympic cyclist. After watching that ad for the first time - my first thought was "yeh - you would cycle like lightning after eating a box of branflakes - especially if the sign for the mens was behind the finishing line".

I hated the previous one with 'Oi, Hoy, race yer'...to which he replies on 'On your bike!' Yes, we get the idea he's a cyclist, is that the best tag line they could come up? Appalling.

Go-Compare makes me want to throttle the bloke singing/shouting.

On a lighter note the new Lineker/Walkers beautiful body ad made me smile.
I thought his belly was going to balloon when he started eating the crisps first time I saw it - what was that Dudly Moore film about an ad exec who started making accurate adverts???

An R8, tidy chicks in the buff and Air in the background. What's not to like?
