Adverts that make you wanna smash your TV set up. (Vol 2)

[hidetheelephants]

Vanish have recruited an irish Barry Scott wannabee and it's worse than that sounds reading it back.

During Guy Martin earlier - the annoying smart meter advert (again) following shortly after by one for EDF Energy branded "Generation Electric".

Virtue signalling bks, meanwhile cruise ships crash into Venice. A smart meter and a new Tesla is not saving the planet.

And don’t forget the stupid ‘Tui dance’ they always do

The TU advert scared me.
One of the biggest arses jiggling ion from the left of the screen wobbling about
I can't say it was a pleasant site.

I mentioned it elsewhere but the latest "equity release" Alan and his partners over at "Age Partnership" can do one
I think it preys on the older viewer myself
As someone mentioned they give themselves a serious sounding name and job description.

In fact ALL the adverts aimed at the elderly. Including my "squeeze" June and her neighbours parsnips trying to shift funeral plans
The other equity release ads fronted by Carol "my arse is tempting isn't it Voirdermann and others
Amazon Alexa for the elderly
Cut price funerals

The whole damn lot of them can go to hell AFAIAC

But a special place reserved for "Alan" and his colleagues

I would hope Titchmarsh would put himself in the compost.

I thought her name was "Junedad".

For me the most irritating equity release ad is where the little girl wants to make an extension for her doll's house so her tedious grandfather starts telling the poor child about equity release.

Agreed. I would love the little girl to turn round and say "But Grandad isn't Equity Release an overpriced mortgage which is going to eat into my inheritance when you finally snuff it? "

fking Smart meter advert.

vivid and thinly veiled exploitation of the popularity of this 'extinction rebellion' toss. Which, in turn, is an exploitation in itself.

Sadly I haven't the time to scour through all these pages to ascertain if someone has already mentioned this - if so. please excuse.
Am I and Mrs K totally hacked of with seeing adverts for his 'Judge' show? We most certainly are. I would be interested to learn if these appear so very regularly because the show is doing well, or is it doing badly? When I have control of the remote control, my finger never moves more quickly than when I change the channel whenever he appears.

+1. Just like the Barclaycard advert. Taking ages to tell you the bleeding obvious. Pay more sooner reduces your repayment costs. Simples!

I guess some brands have thought enough time has passed since Ant's drink driving incident and have started to sign them back up (i think they were doing M&S ads in conjunction with BGT too). Given how quickly they were dumped by Suzuki, etc, it's quite funny tbh.

Although Suzuki dumping Ant & Dec has resulted in bloody Take That instead

Edit - just seen the new Walkers advert. Christ what a load sub promotional wk for other products including The Spice Girls tour, Gogglebox, etc.

Golly, I'm 46 and listen to vinyl...what's this ripping nonsense to which you talk about.

Rip and burn. It's the new cheap cremation option!

Win a night out with Jimmy Savile? I don't think so ! ! !
As a teenager in the 1960s I met the man on two occasions - this was before he had become so famous he thought he could get away with anything. As you can see, I lived to tell the tale.
