If they brought back a rear engined, rear wheel drive coupe I could be persuaded (not that I'm yoof).
Remember the ones they raced with Chevy V8s?

Vaguely, maybe from reading Motorsport News (think) in the early '90's.

There was a Skoda V8 silhouette car, that was racing around the same time as Gerry Marshall's "Baby Bertha" Firenza, in the mid-70s.

Yep, plus about 1 million. Even if I was ever tempted by their food I think I'd rather starve to death now. Very very annoying (and the one on Planet Rock is even worse than the one on TV)

Simon Cowell in a Barclaycard ad too.
Finally saw this one on Thursday night - i wonder how much they paid him / his production company in future promotional sponsorship to do that advert? It's bloody awful.

The bloody awful vauxhall crossover ad with the lady in labour. "No, we're going at 30."

No way on earth that road has a thirty limit, even after recent limit reductions. Utter st.

The latest McDonalds with the pathetic "singing" is on every advert break. FFS who writes these adverts!

I wonder what drugs the ad agency were on, when they came up with the current McCoys Mexican flavoured crisps advert.

Simon is looking very plastic, he obviously has the same plastic surgeon as George Michael used.

Have we had the dreadful Maltsmith’s Lager ad yet, with the crappy dancers ruining a Hall & Oates track as they hop around the brewery?

All that ad tells me is that Simon Cowell can't act and is as wooden as the sob stories on XFactor. For someone so critical of others people's performances I don't know how he thought that ad was a good idea.

Paloma Faith apparently advertising Skoda cars, I thought she was advertising Gregg's Bakery what with the two sausage rolls on her head in the advert.

The latest Confused. com ad. I don't know about you, but when a line of pink teddy bears start following me around, I'd ask my doctor to change my meds.

IONOS


It's a website maker company (IIRC)

At the end the girl looks at the camera and "types" by just pressing her hands randomly on the keyboard.

Sun Alliance Life assurance.

"so that you have got a bit of money to help pay for your funeral, after you've gone".

Gone? Where are you going?

And that woman who keeps coming in with mail "that came next door by mistake".

I tell you, there is something going on between those two! By mistake! My eye!

The lady who a while ago lost her barclaycard in her "weird pocket" on the bus is now playing squash with kevin bacon for EE.

Same story with the American chap in the Enterprise adverts who was then later in a Toyota advert



I get that's their job, but I always find it weird. laugh
