BetFred ad on Talksport at the moment on the run up to the Grand National.

Naturally it contains some cod regional accents. This particular ad opens with “I buck an arse every year …”

Just the usual practice of normalising obesity and yes doubt she spends much time, if any, ice skating.

I'm surprised that we haven't had the holiday ad with the truly awful 'hold my hand ' song. Seems to be every third ad on YouTube, and is actually putting me off YT in the first place.
Maybe some algorithm had selected it as of interest to me but I don't understand why; I never look up holiday stuff online, and I don't get other holiday ads.

I find that ad really sad, because if it IS her passion, she will have to give it up way younger than she should. Chance of still doing it aged 40?

We have but as Jet2 have been using it for the last couple years, it was a while back it got mentioned, several times. I've got it on good authority they even play it on the plane. I'm sure it keeps Jess Glynn's bank account topped up.

Well, it's a long thread!

Not sure I wanted to know who the artist was, now I will have to loathe their entire output!

The Pot Noodle slurping one now has a warning on it, which is a bit strange as I read on here the other day that the advert now has no slurping which is weird. Maybe they've got two versions?

I bloody hate that damned song too and I'm sick of hearing it on the telly! Jet2 - surely it's time for some new music??
And yes, they do play it on the plane too. We're flying with them later this week and I'm bracing myself in anticipation of hearing it already!

Does the line "Darling hold my hand" play if the plane's about to crash?

Nine years! Longer than most jail sentences.

I'll bet even Jess Glynne's sick of hearing it.

Anybody know about the avios advert? Many appear to be surfing on a board with a propeller? under the water and the surfboard is out of the water.

Is it for real or computer generated?

Hydrofoil boards are a real thing, both manually propelled with paddles or electric, but I expect the advert is CGI.

I thought it was computer generated! Never heard of those powered surfboard things before.
