I find the new Cravendale advert, where the biscuit boy's head crumbles off after swimming in the milk lake too long, and he has to fumble his way home headless, deeply disturbing...
Yes. I only saw this yesterday and I thought is this turning into some kind of beheading video!?!?Tycho said:
The new Aldi/Lidl? advert with Graham Taylor has to be the most cringeworthy ad on tv at the moment. Terrible, terrible acting.
...Thinks...Right I have hit the arm of the chair,now fall back....what next......errrrrrr? Oh yes throw the contents of the glass over my face.Nailed it.

I'm sure the opposite happens in reverse in Asian countries with adverts featuring non-Asian customers .. perhaps this is progress of some sorts!
It certainly does. A friend of mine is an actor and has had more than one screen test for a Japanese advert, they have been using white people in adverts for years.I didn't think that the Asian woman in the Vanish advert is there to target Asians in particular, more to point out that the product can be used to get out all sorts of exotic stains.

And another thing, Why must we have a "prudent Scot" voice if the advert is remotely financial or "cheeky Cockney" if they are trying to sell me a new Van ?
I was born in the east end of london, and nothing sounds worse to me that the "mockney" accent in anything trade related. I hate it with a passion!CooperD said:
The Mars bar advert where the fan tells the England players how to take a free kick.
Along with the Mars advert where he steps in goal for the England squad and saves each shot in the penalty shootout. Edited by CooperD on Wednesday 18th June 19:46
Not sure if they've been mentioned, but the Nicole s
tsinger Herbal Essence advert where she's planting sausages in the airplane toilet... Oh wait no, she's washing her hair. What really gets me, is the echo on the final "YEEESSSSS" - hate her with a passion.Ren Esis said:

She does the exact same yells in her yoghurt advert, seems very easily brought to climax!.....stupid bint Not sure if they've been mentioned, but the Nicole s

The Toyota hybrid where it says "6 million people have fallen in love with driving again" due to Toyota hybrids. Have they "fallen in love with driving again", or are they just pleased that it doesn't cost them so much do drive any more? Sounds to me like they've taken their sales figures and spun it to make it into something it's not. I'm sure the Toyota Prius I drive for work has been included in that 6 million figure, I don't love driving it.
Also, the Nissan Quashqai where it describes it as "the ultimate urban driving experience". If I wanted something for urban driving, an oversized hatchback on stilts wouldn't be my first choice.
Driving is one of my most pleasurable experiences, I love it - With that in mind, I would never willingly buy one of those cars. I can only imagine that they are the automotive equivalent of drinking tap water.Also, the Nissan Quashqai where it describes it as "the ultimate urban driving experience".

Having seen 14 reg Auris' now,they are the most dull styled angular dull dull dull boxes ever.
Have I mentioned dull yet ?
If that is falling in love with driving,I'm heading for a certain Swiss clinic....
