I've just seen a new ad from Sun Life which was actually amusing - the 50-something mum who throws her son after learning jujitsu.

A couple here that I always enjoyed…which is a very rare quality for an advert. Both pretty bonkers in their own way.

Rancid booze that was Metz had this in 2000.

Dunlop went completely arty farty with this one, extra kudos for the old 8 series.

Having just come back from the cinema and seeing Audis latest advert for the q6 etron where it’s just driven around a city, it made me remember this one from a few years back for the R8 v10 plus, which when in the cinema was incredible.



How far they haven fallen

What I like about this is in the final seconds she brings her left hand up to her face & asks "Whose turn is it anyway?" & we know the fiance's response of "Tyler's apparently", but I wonder how many notice the engagement ring she's wearing to add another layer of cringe to it!?

That fine drink got a young Bunk very "happy" many a time at Volts in Kingston in the mid late 90s biggrin

Has anyone else seen the new Lynx body spray advert with the deranged dog?

It's like the advertising agency have decided 'fk it, lets do some crazy st and tack the product on at the end' hehe

For some reason that youtube link wasn't showing earlier, still a funny advert though.

Avios TV advert with the e-foil surfboards. The music just fits perfectly.

Pumas new "because I got high" running advert. Simple, no OTT diversity nonsense, no useless men tropes.

For some reason it gets on my nerves. The runners don't look much like any of the runners I see on the streets.

Whilst it may not be on TV I do like the current Audible adverts:

I remember when audio books used to be in the far reaches of the library on cassette. Amazing how they have made a come back.

Love it.

An American advert I presume? It certainly doesn't fit the narrative for the UK.

I don't think it would get past the UK advertising driving standards regulations hehe
