I cannot fathom what the advertisers think they are saying with these adverts.

"if your scum, come and holiday with us" or is it "we are so fking cheap, that you might have to put up with tts like these"

Its daft.
Maybe the brief was "UK Everyman" so that's what they got... Obese, entitled, selfish, ignorant chav scum.
Have you flown out of Birmingham airport - or Stansted

And as an added bonus you get to share the airport lounge with them. So their chavy kids can run round screaming whilst you wait to be seated on the plane next to them. Once at your resort the chavy mum can kick a flip flop in your face!! Must rush off now and book my holiday with On The Beach!!

Mum and 10 year old daughter have a bust up.

Mum thinks, how will I win her back?

Maybe take her to Smyth's toys or how about a theme park or even a holiday, get some Pizza in?

No, mum decides to call Smart Insurance for some life cover.
Obviously she's 32 and doesn't smoke so it costs about £2.49 a month.

Daughter overhears her mum on the phone from the stairs and thinks wow what a responsible mother I have, if anything happens to her I'll get a big payout, she's only looking out for my future.
I've been such a little st.

They make up and live happily ever after.

Waiting for the sequel where mum has "accidently" fallen down the stairs and daughter is living it up.
Yes I'm 32 and a non smoker, but you aren't asking about the terminal cancer giving me 6 months to live, or the genetic degenerative disease I have. How can they do life insurance without medical questions?

Google can do one with their cringeworthy PC adverts about “why are women athletes judged on their looks” “why are there no women in building industry” etc. 18 seconds of unskippable adverts on YouTube. It is quicker to back out of the video and go back in to get a 5 second ad.
Those two need a girder to fall on them.
I get this one constantly, encouraging me to use Google. I'm on a Chromebook using Google Chrome as the OS. Don't cookies (or something, I'm a bit of a technophobe) tell them this, yet they are battering me with adverts to use a service I'm already using to see the advert they are constantly battering me with.

Also trendy "I'm the only woman on a construction site". I work in a construction related activity, my LinkedIn feed is full of women being "a woman on a construction site". Yes, still a minority certainly but Google have jumped on that bandwagon very late

There is a public service advert campaign running up here in Scotland with the tagline "Use a bit of Covid Sense".

On one hand that family and the resort look like hell on earth, on the other hand...on the beach. Next time you're thinking of booking a holiday, you'll subconsciously think on the beach but probably won't remember why you remember them. Advertising win.
I dunno really...if there's a more plausible explanation to showing everyone's idea of a typical hellish British fat wker noisy horrid family on holibobs then do share smile

Verisure must have an unlimited advertising budget. They clearly don't spend it on the actors but the latest ad seems to be in every channel at every ad break. It is stalking me!!!

Claudia W*nkleman is back with a cracked vase but I'd rather listen to the vase repeatedly break.

Condescending or what...

They really tried to tick all the boxes by rounding up the circus acts in that one.

On The Beach now offering free fast track at the airport. Reminds me of the Come Fly with Me sketch where the checkout girl sells speedy boarding to every passenger! So only have to wait 2 hours in the queue instead of 3 then!

I'm quite happy to get on the plane last. Now if they offered speedy disembarking, that might be worth it.

Only worth it if you are exiting onto an air bridge, if you are being transferred by bus not so good, both buses have to be full of all passengers before they can leave the aeroplane. Always get on the front bus as they will decant it first and keep second bus doors shut until it can pull up opposite the doors.

The EE "I can't believe we just landed a plane" advert is on every break now. Good job they don't rely on EE near where I live in West Sussex as we have to hang out of the window to get even a half decent signal.It is such a pathetic advert made even worse by smug gob out of work actor congratulating everyone for doing nothing

The Checkatrade adverts are back and they show what we have been missing

Humour gentle pokes at historical figures and some dad dancing
Excellent
