The one where the woman tells us she has type 3 breast cancer or something 'and I was like, kids' blah blah blah.
Yes I know it's horrible and serious, but 'i'm like' really fed up with seeing that ad, it's on every single break on some channels.

Unfortunately they are not alone. It's commonplace these days for companies to quote a fictitious RRP and then give a "discount"

I've seen the ad precisely once!

Canopies by Canopies Uk (or something)


fk off!

118 sponsors itv movies .

How are they even in business never mind pedalling 2 blokes from 15 years ago.


Edit
The service charge is £8.98 per call plus £4.49 per minute.

Yeah, I wondered that a few days ago. So, had a squiz on their website. You can get phone numbers and addresses for free online on the 118 website. The phone line, at £10-20 a pop, is just preying on the poor or elderly (who are most likely to use it). Can't believe they're still allowed to trade.

Any fking cat food advert.
Especially the one with the cat pointing to the words from some 80s power ballad.
Just seen a worse one with some poxy cat looking out a rain streaked window talking in a babyish voice.
Also some fking pheromone plug in where some bint starts her sentences with so and calls her fking cat her baby.
I bloody hate cats in case you didn't work it out.

The current Adidas advert with a bunch of (presumably) famous people sat round a table chatting. I say presumably because although I recognise a number of footballers I have no idea who most of the others are. Anyway, it’s all a bit too smug for my liking, I suspect that when they finished they all got up, formed a conga and gave each other a reach around as they went to collect their cheques. Tossers.

YES
It looks like the thing you would find on a local cinema advert in the 80s
Its as ste as that one where some old DJ or actor is selling replacement UPVC locks

I just watched another one with the same people. ‘Sisters’ or something like that plugging the switch incentive. Can’t find it online yet though.

The TUI advert with the woman singing, her voice goes right through me. Annoying cow.

[DaveGoddard]

I've mentioned it before on this thread, but if I ever find the person who signed off the ad for the bookmaker with the whiny-voiced guy in a wheelchair singing the really st cover of Spandau Ballet's "Gold" I am gonna rip his head off. It's on EVERY SINGLE AD BREAK ON EVERY SPORTS CHANNEL.

The Victorian Plumbing ad. It seems to be on at every ad break and is just as annoying as Oak Furniture Land.

Who aspires to Victorian plumbing? A bucket/gazunder or an outdoor crapper?

Rightmove must be struggling to pump up their market... Now targetting that huge percentage of the population - the over 80s in their huge houses worth a million, with the wife bed-ridden and the husband struggling up and down the stairs. So they downsize to a bungalow and free up the house for a young family.

Except that most OAPs do not have that kind of wealth, bungalows are few and far between and prohibitively expensive, and the young family could never afford to buy that house from them so they cannot downsize anyway.

I watched that entire advert waiting for him to buy a Stannah Stairlift.

I should have realised that I was watching TV at 9.30pm and not 3.30pm in the middle of Countdown when Stannah usually advertise.

[boobles]

The new Seat Arona one really annoys me.

[Morningside]

That bloody shouting woman on Currys/PC World.

[harry01hog]

Any betting or gambling advert, especially on SKY or BT - such as

Ladbrokes
BET 365
Betfair
Kwiff (new one n BT)
Coral

and of course, Paddy Power with the guy in the wheelchair.!!!!

AAGH !!!!!

[zetec]

What doing?

They were good at first, now it just seems the advertisers have run out of ideas.

Clearscore I think the company is.
