Adverts that make you wanna smash your TV set up.
Discussion
I won't be specific, but almost every advert for a European manufacturer's small SUV/MPV (there's a Renault one which is a quintessential example at the mo - Kadjar? Or some s
t).
All of them seem to imply that cars like these are owned by stylish young people living some kind of super urban 24 hour party lifestyle, to travel from fancy bar to swish party to sunrise on a Mediterranean clifftop.
Whereas 99% of them will be used for the school run, or to travel to the council tip then that nice garden centre for a cup of coffee and a teacake before stopping at Co-Op for a tin of cat food.

I know it's been mentioned a few times before but Philips Schofield must be getting paid an absolute fortune for that WBAC advert. I woukd have liked to have been a fly on the wall when his agent first put it to him 
There is radio advert for the Fiat 500 where the guy keeps saying "more specifically" that gets on my wick and yes I listen to the radio through the TV

The adverts that most antagonise me are still the BBC 6 o'clock news when the lead story isn't actually news at all, but rather a current affairs story that is essentially a 10 minute trailer for that weeks Panorama investigation.
Yes - that actually does annoy me even more that that violent sheep that decides that it doesn't want to be ran over by some middle aged metrosexual cliche who has implausibly taken his school run Volkswagen out to somewhere near the middle of nowhere in the countryside.

Apologies if it's been mentioned already, but there's an awful lot of superb rants in here to trawl through.
The one getting on my tits right now is the one for the Seat Arona - 'He said, she said, they said....'
I say fk off, and take your ugly, little, st niche filling, jacked up Ibiza with you*.
*...I'm sure the car isn't bad at all in reality. But for the life of me, I can't seem to escape this advert - it's seemingly everywhere. Therefore; it's all st.

Indeed, much the same as our local news, South Today, which regularly have a current affairs article thinly veiled as an advert for a show presented by this bellend.Yes - that actually does annoy me even more that that violent sheep that decides that it doesn't want to be ran over by some middle aged metrosexual cliche who has implausibly taken his school run Volkswagen out to somewhere near the middle of nowhere in the countryside.

Ford with their brand new "EcoSport" mini SUV thing. Only it's not ECO apparently, it's pronounced ECHO now 
You mean it's pronounced 'eco' as in 'economical'. Edited by AlexRS2782 on Sunday 21st January 21:35
king mind up. In a fit of irony, when the EcoSport advert came on, the voice-over said "echo", to which I immediately said "echo?", and my dad then said "echo?". Eco seems to be one of those words that's vague, but people take to mean economy, ecological etc (see Vauxhall Ecotec, Ecoflex which they insist means Emissions Control Optimization). Cunning marketing, to make the public think it means one thing, but has no actual defined meaning, or a definition which they say is something else. Another over-used word which does the same job is "Pro". The public take it as meaning professional, but it just means "in favour of"
I'm not convinced Rob Brydon is actually on a cruise in most of the adverts, some of those outdoor backgrounds look suspiciously blurry and overlaid.

king mind up. Flawed branding idea as I bet only 0.001% think it means that instead of being like 'eco-friendly', and I bet even fewer pronounce it echo.

Prime example of the type.
Any of the ones advertising logbook loans with that moronic tt from some ITV show. fk off you miserable , the only place he should be is in a workhouse instead of making children think it's ok to not try at school you worthless fking waste of resources. If he had a higher intelligence than a fking rock he'd not be telling stupid people who can't save for st to give their car away to loan shark bellends, does no one learn from history? It's always fking written down!! "They told me it was a smart car", it's not even a car it's a fking flip flop that only retards bought when they wanted to replace crumple zones for their fking knees. s.

The new Nescafé Gold advert with a man addressing a stadium of people he was once friends with but has since lost touch with. Presumably because he served them cheap instant coffee.
NESCAFÉ says: “The campaign includes emotional and product TVCs linking the care we put into our relationships with the care and attention that goes into making a cup of NESCAFÉ Gold."
If you say so.
