KFC. Advert made to look like 2 sets of single parents (one woman / one man) taking their respective sons to a football game where each kid supports a rival team. Next we follow them walking home until they happen to bump into each other in the street but then head towards the same front door.

At this point it turns out that they're meant to be a family divided, but only a massive fattening KFC bargain bucket can bring harmony to the family once more.

bks.

Wow, you remembered almost every detail.

They'll never change your opinion of KFC but they are clearly doing something right

Is it only me that thinks the guy in the Ford Ecosport (stupid name, stupid car) advert is some sort of prank/ heavy breather caller?

He gets the car to "Call Sophie", cue a cheery, attractive sounding woman answering the phone and then he proceeds to not talk to her?

My mind works in strange ways...

Sofa bear followed directly by muller rice singing bear. Is it any wonder my tv has a shoe impact mark in the the top corner.

Agreed. When did 'Eco' start being pronounced as 'Echo'. Noticed the same in a Volvo advert for the new V40.

"To see your MPG in a handy display on the dash, just hit the ECHO button..."

Boils my piss.

I don't like the "paypal" advert, the one with the women with the annoying voice telling us all that you can use paypal pretty much anywhere! Then right at the end you hear that stupid bloke say "people rule" ....... mad

I saw one of these the other day, I thought it was a new Kuga and was sad, as the Mk1 Kuga is actually quite a nice design, this thing looked like an 80's Nissan bus and Mr Magoo peery eyed lights. Awful thing.

These days adverts either latch onto internet culture and attempt viral humour, or have some soppy bint singing over bleached out, soft focus, lens flaring, shaky cam footage of hipsters.

The man that annoys me and got reported here from the made dot com furniture ad is some sort of

bigoumous double life furniture freak.

I have now spotted him as the "father" in an Ikea ad and he also has a different dog.

"Adverts that make me wanna smash up some furniture"

I think the Audi ad is something to do with not conforming to the identikit aspirational status. Audis couldn't be more that, however. Weird.
I hate this advert with a passion,some completely knobby bloke saying things like presence and gravitas.

If I see someone in an a7 I just think grey man in a grey little suit, if this man starting spouting off in a meeting, I couldnt stifle a yawn.

It knocks this really nice brass steampunk style gramaphone off the table, with its weedy little spoiler, pathetic.

I would rather have the gramaphone to be honest.

Well at least it does me the favour of reminding me one car I dont want to own.
