Yup, and this time he says Moose clearly for a change. Redeemed.

Most advert's annoy me but there is showing at the moment for I think the NHS/ cancer where the guy is singing "head shoulders knees and toes" to the sick little boy & tries to catch him out by saying "head shoulders cheese on toast" the smile on the boys face gets me every time. cry

I do like 'Moose' hehe

Just to remind myself I had a quick look on youtube - the 'FleaRoy' cat one is quite good too (but not as good as Moose)

Yes your never going to be able to catch a camel toe if the birds wearing those.

I hate the new Currys advert dad goes into Currys drops his pants and says spank me hard to the sales assistant. She hands him a MacBook pro he thinks looks pretty and his daughter is very happy.
The fookwit deserves to be stitched up with both a MacAfee and Norton anti virus sale and well kippered on a pretty overpriced bag for it too.

Don't forget the extended warranty.

Another thing that pisses me off with Currys adverts is that are all the prices are pronounced singularly with no mention of pounds, but savings are pronounced in the hundreds of pounds to make it sound more.

Buy now for one five four nine, saving five hundred pounds!

The smart meters adverts in all their forms.

An advert based on a flawed idea, then badly made.

All involved in their creation should be air-dropped mid-Atlantic.

not sure why the daft s are advertising it anyway. I've had my name down for about 6 years. Maybe deliver the fking rollout and then start pushing it??

The whole 'estimate' thing ?
I don't get it either.
I get an email, I read my meters, I enter the figures online and my direct debit is altered there and then dependant upon readings.
Few months later, do the same thing.

it's a stupid campaign. Far better to target people who, like me, have to move their entire corner fking sofa to get to the meter in a cupboard under the stairs. Smartphone app, ping pong, done. They have understood however that most people are thick as fk however and only read their meter once when the move in and once when they move out, and then rely on the numpties in a van turning up every 3 years to do an 'actual' reading... at which point they get lumbered with a massive bill due to the 'estimating'. They then get annoyed. So it's technically targeting them.

+ Crafty manipulation of perspective, etc resulting in something that's about an inch square look the size of a kingsize matress. Just generally adverts for st processed rubbish sold to the gullible as low fat/sugar/salt/flavour/nutrition/meat/gluten/unobtanium.

A new year equals new "com-pen-say-shun" adverts.

This time "AirFair" with a woe is me tale of how awful it is in the weeks after Christmas when you have no £££ to spend on a future summer holiday / break, etc, before breaking into joyful narration over how you can pay for a new holiday by claiming for all your delayed flights from the last 6 years and possibly more £££ if your holiday was ruined as a result of even a 5 minute slight delay rolleyes

I'm surprised this one, along with the spinning the car until it parks Mr Corden, hasn't been pulled by the ASA yet for encouraging bad driving hehe Especially when some previous car manufacturer adverts have been pulled for that reason in the past (and they weren't even that bad).

I must admit I found the Aviva advert a bit poor, mainly due to the fact Aviva are trying to sell the passengers as a real couple that are unaware of what's going to happen when it's clear the entire local area has been shut down for filming. Although this whole "fake real customers" does seem to be the current trend in adverts.

My guess is that it's possibly going to end up part of a sponsorship tie in with Aviva and the F1 coverage on C4 this year, in place of Kayak from last year.
