Purple Bricks - "Official Estate Agent of Team GB"

I guess with it being an Olympic Year, we"ll be in for a lot more...
You're right. They are all at it. Just waiting for the "Official advert of Team GB". Maybe Nationwide can be "Official Poet of Team GB"

If you are over 50 you too can be fked over by releasing some of the equity in your house
Not really, more a case of you have a tonne of money in your property that you have done nothing to gain so it's your right to take a huge chunk to blow on holidays in your retirement whilst also enjoying your collosal defined benefit/final salary pension.

The Virgin Media "seal of approval". Oh, what clever, original thinking. A pun on words with "LASERS!"

Oh BUGGER OFF!
I don't get why the stupid thing falls on the table when the bloke walks in but then does his laser thing and starts floating again.

Stupid fking advert

Devised by someone who didn't heed the brown acid warning at Woodstock I shouldn't wonder.

Meanwhile I hate the growing propensity for shouty rap/hip-hip music in adverts.

And the 'my builder' singing house advert.

Chosing people who can't speak properly to do voice/radio work continuously baffles me. Probably ticking some diversity box or some st

That's the cycling thing that costs about £50 a month? That'll go well with the £22 a month Weightwatchers subscription!

Just saw an advert for Park Christmas for the love of fk!
What's your specific issue with the advert?

either it didn't sell its message to you properly, or, its just a st advert, or maybe both?

But they do always float it around in January to try and get people to sign up - noble idea, though one of their competitors went under a few years ago I seem to recall, leaving a lot of people out of pocket?

It's more the fact I hate all the Christmas ste and enjoy when all the Christmas ads finish, I can watch TV in the knowledge that none of that tinsel and sleigh bells bullst will appear for at least another 8 months......Then Park advert comes on Arrrggggg!


...And it's a st advert (but not as annoying as the one they had with the little girl singing / giggling from a few years ago.

There is a newsreader on Radio 4 , Neil Nunes, a black guy who is trying to sound like a cross between Trevor Mcdonald , and an English version of James Earl Jones.. I find myself listening to how he says stuff and not what he says, his enunciation and emphasis is just a bit out and it sounds bizarre.. and once heard , it cant be unheard... like the Radio 2 guy with the lisp and the Radio 1 guy FROM fkING WALES.. the job description must have asked for someone ' extremely welsh'..

If there was an irritating pair of c**ts award, they'd have won it for the past 19 years. If they found a dead man in their swimming pool, they'd win the best swimming pool award....
