The current Natwest advert with "Magic Mummy" banghead
Yes! Hate that advert, and any other with kids in them. They're too young to be actors, just fk off.

A half scale man in a orange little car who pesters women in their kitchens about eating the wrong biscuits.

The latest Jacobs crackers ad.

Proof positive that everyone in advertising is on drugs and everyone who works for these corporations who thinks these adverts are a good way of representing their company and increasing growth must be too.

Seriously. WTF?

That hateful car insurance ad where the slag of a girlfriend (I assume it's a girlfriend and not wife..) is showing her holiday snaps to her friends, which show her flirting with one of the foreign locals, while her boyfriend's in the room, too!

Imagine if the roles were reversed!
The foreign local flirted with the boyfriend whilst the girl watched sport on TV?

The current BT broadband radio ad where someone keeps coming downstairs to use their broadband, surely once he had the password he would sit in his own flat and nick it.

Note to self; I have too much time on my hands.

Saw an ad for Haribo last night where adults had toddlers voices dubbed over the top. Made me want to break something!
That advert is possibly the creepiest thing on television.

Sorry, I find that advert hilarious. Especially the older guy with the moustache who deadpans all the way through, then the expression on his face when he says "...a SANDWICH!".

The bit at thee end makes me want to shout at the TV 'have you seen this deal?' 'Yes, but we can't have it because we're existing customers who've had Infinity for months mate.'

The Glenister character in the Gordons advert is supposed to be the hero, but actually he's the wker, and what a wker too, it's definitely not the posh bloke. I think Gordons got that one very wrong.

It must have been made by the same agency that created the green half scale man in a mini aircraft buzzing around dumping cans of Cuprinol. It makes me want to stab someone furiousfurious

I quite like that ad. I think it would be fun to be a little beardy fellow flying around in an auto-gyro all day. He seems happy with his life!

On Childrens TV they are playing a succession of "lalaLoopsy" adverts, each one is a horrible assault on the senses.

This one is one of the worst ones, the bubbly mermaid one is just as bad.

I can feel my brain cells dying and my IQ reducing every time I hear or see this drivel. At least I know what happened to make Ozzie Ozmond the way he is, an overload of lalaloopsy

Another radio advert.

The Weight Watchers one where a woman talks about eating stuff whilst eating a WW biscuit.

That's disgusting!

This mad , oh my very much this madmad It's bad enough we have to endure numerous hours of the crap at prime time without having to put up with slow-mos of the 'actors' doing their best 'this is serious drama' faces. It's almost as enraging as the 'everyone's talking about it' trailer from a couple of years ago. Just fk off BBC, go spend the money on some decent TV.

Not sure if it is a UK-wide advert but there is one on at the moment that rips my kitting - Dreams. Got some 'wacky'-looking guy in it with fluroescent-coloured spectacles, a grin that you couldn't remove with a cricket bat and 'wacky' waistcoat and trousers.

By golly does that man need a really good solid kicking.
