^This. What annoys me even more than the total inaccuracy is that it’s actually a great product (it tastes v fresh and stays so for 2 weeks) and yet the ad does nothing to convey the obvious USP. If I were them, I’d sack the agency.

Absolutely. I thought it was some sort of Vegan milk substitute like Soya or Almond. I didn't realise that it was actually milk that I might actually want to buy, because they kept banging on about it not being milk!

'Jump Around' is one of those rare tracks which never seems to gets irritating,
even when heard repeatedly.
Depends if you like nails scraping down a blackboard or not.
Takes me straight back to chilling out on a roof top terrace after Carnival 93 or 94. I still love it.

I'm not buying a jumper from M&S though.

Julia Roberts, Johnny Depp, all the shallow stars conveying utter tripe that is a stupid perfume ad

...but all topped by the two cyclists on LED-lit bikes who say, not quite in unison that it is a scent for us - another neutral gender stink so you can spot them in a crowd. Utter twoddle.

I buy fragrances by sniffing them at the airport and then buying them on ebay.

Everything I have bought has been genuine bar the ones from Copycat Fragrances which were probably as good as the originals, albeit not that much cheaper, especially if you buy the sample sets.

The Gillette Sensitive one with the 'take no pressure...' bks.

You're advertising a razor and you use a bloke who looks like he needs to shave once a year!

New John Lewis ad.

Storyline is a hit with me, but the cover version of Can't Fight This Feeling is toe curling. Sorry.
They've done WHAT?

I'm very pleased I've not caught that one - that's one of my favourite songs ever. Whoever's ruined that deserves a cobra down their trousers.
Cover versions are usually dire; this one’s no exception. Dreadful tune, dreadful ad.
Absolutely awful cover, totally murdered that song. Ruins the whole ad for me
