Latest Quick Quid advert, "the engineer says the heating element has failed and we need a new one, what shall I tell him?"...cue quick quid money lending. Seriously, you have to be a bit dim to not know the heating element in an oven has failed and you really don't need a loan to buy a replacement. Heating elements are only about £5-£10 on ovens people who need to use Quick Quid would have.

An easy DIY job, done it about 3 times now, element held in with a couple screws, maybe 6-8 holding on the back plate, be a mug to pay for someone to do it for you.

Exactly, it's a simple job.

I've just stopped eating my dinner to post this one ragebangheadmoan

The Zoopla one with Mo Farah's daily running route censoredcensoredcensored

I'm an athletics guy - it has been my sport - but bloody hell - how could anyone think that was a good idea.
(Not like he needs the money either)

Any advert where its filmed in a POV style with some dozy bint / annoying brat dragging 'you', whilst constantly looking back and smiling -- while that Jess Glynn "HOLD MY HAND" song is on. Sure it's not just one company that does this. Annoying.









..you get the idea

Edited by Hazuki on Friday 1st June 10:24
Agreed. But the same style ad featuring the young lady from Jerusalem / Tel Aviv gets my thorough approval.

Congratulations on the picture research, bloody good effort!

But as has pointed out we need some pictures of the Israeli girl.....

I can't post any that are safe for work, but her name is Shir Elmaliach if anyone wants to take a gander. The advert she appeared in was for Tel Aviv

Yeah, I can forgive that as she is very pretty. Much less annoying than the kids.

"Smirnoff Vodka: Labels are for bottles, not people."

Yet the preceeding montage of people featured on the advert are stereotypes of people who've spent the better part of this century (even beyond) coming up with every kind of different label imaginable to describe every facet of their entire life, about what or who they are, or about what they do or don't do. So how does that work then??

I was stood in a pub looking at the Estrella Damm pump, wondering I wonder if anyone has actually bothered going to the website and watching the full movie with Tyrion in it.

And whether it's a desperate little effort full of beautiful people (and Tyrion) all obviously drinking one brand of lager.

Has anyone? Own up!

I fancied a lager but I deliberately chose something else.

Muller Yow-guurt, official sponsor of the England football team. With an American accent.

Having persuaded us to call railway stations train stations, and say authentically instead of honestly or genuinely, they are now hi-jacking yoghurt! Outrageous!

Müller is a German company - they would call it Joghurt, pronounced essentially the same way the Americans do.

My mate Ed gave this review:

We just watched the Estrella movie on YouTube.

It was like A Christmas Carol, except in summer, and with a stbucket more product placement. A story of brotherhood, of personal growth, and a reminder to spare a thought for the less fortunate; because somewhere someone is drinking an Estrella and discovering the true meaning of 'cheap continental piss'

I give it Estrella/10, but only because I'm too smart to be affected by the product placement. Now i need to buy a Fiat 500, and the new Peter Dinklage album.
