the un-said bit is that insight into energy usage and better control over it leads to greater efficiency, but they don't make that claim chiefly because it isn't really evidenced.
I don't need e bloody smart meter to tell me to turn all the lights off that the kids leave on! I'm so glad I record 99% of my Sky viewing,so I can skip the ads.

Caught one recently for something called Pitpat which has some woman exhorting you to take your dog for a walk in various ways. A absolute load of bks. It has me reaching for the remote immediately.
I assume it's a cash-in on the sad way people treat their pets, these days. In the old days, they ran wild and you bought a few cans of Butch or Chum and a bag of Winalot. Nowadays, it's "all dogs have different dietary requirements, give us a call and tell us about your mutt/lawncrapper"What is it with radio adverts, I listen to LBC and the adverts on there seem to be fascinated with "putting the bins out" at least 3 adverts mention this.
Also there's some actor bloke (playing Colin in one advert , someone that's getting new teeth in another) he appears all the time and you recognize him straight away with his acting trait of trying to prove he's a real person by doing an unnecessary pauses when talking like he's not reading a script.... I'm *pause* Colin ....Think he must have went to the Joey Tribuanay school of acting.

Ah LBC. I listen to too much of it and have had many a chuckle about their crap ads over the years.Also there's some actor bloke (playing Colin in one advert , someone that's getting new teeth in another) he appears all the time and you recognize him straight away with his acting trait of trying to prove he's a real person by doing an unnecessary pauses when talking like he's not reading a script....

McDonalds advert with 2 people eating burgers squashed up against the glass of a Canadian Ice Hockey rink, rink-side. Then it shows they are actually pressed up against the doors of a London tube train. Burgers in their hands, in a packed train.
Tube of you has it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZs--3Qrz3I
Correction, not even eating the burgers until they disembark, just enhancing the filth attraction to them.
