Rylan whatshisname on Spotify advertising some drink I can't even remember the name of - " It's literally the perfect drink for a Sunday". Really? Literally? The pretentious, plastic, pointless ninny.

The Cinch ad. I'm supposed to take car buying advice from Rylan Clark Neal, someone who's never got his hands dirty in his life and no doubt doesn't know one end of a car from another.

They certainly seem obsessed with leaping around for no apparent reason.

If the demographic of adverts was replicated in the country, it would be a very different mix

Any advert that flogs equity release schemes. Potentially dodgy as feck, and taking advantage of the elderly. Several celebrities have sold out including Eamonn Holmes and even Readers Digest have sold out, giving their name to Aviva give a scheme perceived legitimacy. What the hell has Readers Digest got to do with finance schemes?

Plus, back in reality, if the floors of the restaurant really were slippy enough to allow skating, then all of his customers would have sued for injury damage having slipped over on the dangerous surface, meaning the mop purchase is the least of things to worry about hehe

I wonder how much those jobbing ‘actors’ get paid for their art... hate to think what the more well known names make, even for a voice over... & do they get repeat fees. irked

NB: Once they had worked for a brand... you don’t tend to see them in other commercials.
( Probably looks good on their CV as ‘various TV work’... if they admit to it)

I'm sure I read somewhere that she's suffering from degrading eyesight, so perhaps this is just a way of bunging the pension up while she can. Or maybe she thought she was signing up for something else.

Dame Judi's success came later in life therefore I'm sure she still remembers the lean years and as such is not going to turn down a paycheck. I would also imagine she doesn't take herself too seriously and likes to keep busy.

Yes I expect this was more for fun than anything. Must be nice to reprise the M style character.

The woman's voice in the Vodafone advert. She also did the Vauxhall Corsa ad for some time.

Incredibly irritating whiney voice which just triggers something in me and fills me with hate for the duration of the advert.

Yes, about the most annoying delivery around at the moment. In which case she’ll be in high demand frown

The Omaze woman seems to have toned down hers in the more recent adverts... I wonder if the PH comments got back to her.

There is a Vodafone radio ad running at the moment where she seems to have turned it up a notch or two. It's actually painful smile
