More radio, much as I appreciate the intention behind the message in Covid ads.
"If you break the rules, people will die", is taking it a bit far, are you saying I am an accessory to manslaughter, we get it FFS. Lay off
The message is true though, if you don't break the rules, people will die. If you have a pizza, people will die. If you don't have a pizza, people will die."If you break the rules, people will die", is taking it a bit far, are you saying I am an accessory to manslaughter, we get it FFS. Lay off

Assisted Bathing!
Advertising walk-in baths & showers yet have a very able bodied lady to advertise the fact you can have a bath then walk out of it
Like the Galaxy chocolate advert that features a succession of actresses that look like they've never eaten one piece of chocolate between them.Advertising walk-in baths & showers yet have a very able bodied lady to advertise the fact you can have a bath then walk out of it

Radio again. Much as I appreciate the music of Blondie hearing One Way Or Another during every ad break on talkSPORT is painful.
Just as painful is the talkRADIO advert for Moneypenny receptionists. It goes something like this:"DRC, who would you like to speak to please?"
"Hello it's Sue."
"Oh hello, is it Peter you want? Putting you through........."
Surely the response to the caller should be:
"I didn't ask for your name, Sue. I asked who you wanted to speak to, you stupid b
h. Now, let's try again......"OK, so I'm easily annoyed at present, I guess. And I like talkRADIO, but the adverts are soooo damned annoying!

Real version:"Hello it's Sue."
"Oh hello, is it Peter you want? Putting you through........."
"DRC, who would you like to speak to please?
"Hello, its..."
"Please hold"
"Hello, DRC, who would you like to speak to please?"
"Hello, I..."
"Ah yes, you've come back to the switchboard. Please hold"
(Music of the intensely annoying variety)
34 minutes passes...
Hangs up.

Billy is back, with his "extra" bedroom. Perhaps it's not piss poor English and he really does have more than one bedroom? Somewhere to store his pies maybe?
That came on when i was watching something earlier. It looks like the complaints they and the ASA were getting about the use of the term "G", has resulted in it being changed to "Boss" in the narration, so they could keep the advert on air.Gassing Station | TV, Film, Video Streaming & Radio | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
