The Specsavers(?) one set in the vet's surgery. Funny the first time, but it's now on during every single fking ad break on every single fking channel!

And the postcode lottery ones with the fake-screaming actors-posing-as-winners can ps off too.

Agree with the postcode lottery ones Dave. I also can't stand the Dan and his smug data self ones.

I wouldn't nornally post a radio ad in this thread but the new Lloyds TSB 'the M word' patronising garbage thats on twice every ad break between songs is starting to get infuriating. The AUX connection on the stereo in my Saab doesnt work and I've been wondering whether to get an upgraded unit to replace it. After hearing that advert on the radio about 10 times on my drive home tonight as well as 'peely peely', I've just ordered one.

Silly, silly, silly!
...and not as good as "Dilly Dilly"
I don't think I've ever seen "not as good as" in such an inappropriate context.

As others have said, the finger licking Doritos one makes me heave. TV is off as soon as that appears and usually stays off. Most TV is crap made for women with live laugh love on their wall.

and the screeching harpie on the Jet2 advert - Jess wotnot - sings like she's stting lego.

Ryanair's irony bypass advert with the tagline ending in "... great care!". I'm struggling to think of an airline which cares less, except perhaps MJN Air.

Made us guffaw too. The irony was presumably lost on the ad agency and their client.

The "gambling aware" advert where the guy is sitting on the toilet and having a punt and a dump...

Having spent the day watching the BTCC coverage on ITV4 i'm now nominating the cringeworthy intro & outro sponsor ads from Kwik Fit, that are now going to be the mainstay for the rest of this season (and probably beyond).

Given how the owner of Ryanair normally talks about his own employees, pilots, & even the people that use the service, i could well imagine that the "great care" part is probably a deliberate addition to stick 2 fingers up and have a laugh tbh.

Any and all +++++We the banks love you type adverts on the radio (yes yes I know it says TV )
In particular the ones for Lloyds lets talk about money ads- The M word
One has a couple of hooray henry sounding sisters wittering on about approaching the bank of mum to get some help getting on the property markets

Bloody Peloton ad. Non-stop it seems, at every ad-break.
however, Leanne Hainsby is rather decorative: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9irjHyRZd8

Isn't it supposed to be ironic? A song from the electronic synth era, played on acoustic instruments.

For all these adverts that are utter junk that we all hate there are then adverts that get banned because 6 people, just 6, complain about.
