If I hear "I don't know why I love you but I do" one more time I am setting the TV on fire. I don't even know what the ad is for but it's on EVERY fkING BREAK ON EVERY fkING CHANNEL.
Apart from anything else, surely if you can’t think of a single reason why you love someone, then you’ve really got to question whether you really do.

Interesting advertising angle some of the, erm, rather less appealing car brands are going for...

Ssangyong - Vinnie Jones "yeah, it's got a weird name"

Vauxhall - "some say I'm too good for a Vauxhall Corsa"

Doesn't make me want to smash the TV but I've noticed that all the "adopt an endangered animal" ads say it costs £3 a month. Surely an elephant costs more to feed than a penguin?

Those bloody awful Dove adverts that have women who seem to work in the tv or film industry and insist on showing their armpits and giggling inanely. I'm surprised my TV is still in one piece.

Every single advert with a couple in it have one black and one white. Or a group of friends that look like a miniature UN day out of 1 of each race.

Lol slipstream

The thing that makes me wonder about it, is they think they are being diverse, but EVERYBODY sees through it, it makes them look desperate and even more out of touch. I even have scorn for the actors, the token black guy or the token Asian woman, it's pathetic. And don't get me started now on the endless gay and lesbian couples in ads, you can just imagine the marketing meeting... And some guy sitting there with his head in his hands thinking "wtf is going on"

I do wonder if these companies actually ever look at the outside world.

I still maintain the best ads are the ones that make you laugh or are factual like Ronseal used to be. Or actually the daft ones, they do work, even if they a re annoying.

Why does virtually every other Tv Avert feature that Arch Idiot of Voiceovers Peter Simpson ? my Mute button is the most used one on my remote especially when his irritating voice booms out ..

Not a problem for me except that the man is always black. It seems that having a black woman and a white man would be just too weird.

You've not seen that one with the black woman in the bath and her white husband.

He looks like he is well up for some special care.

The recently mentioned Emirates ad featuring white men as husbands/partners all in the same family:

Are there any ads without this woman in? She appears to be in every bloody campaign, she should give tips to that bearded hipster type in the deepheat and coffee bags ads, he's letting the side down only being in 2 ads at once.

Does anyone ever buy anything, based on adverts. Can't say I ever have and lately, they are markers to specifically avoid any of their products.
