i know it's just a 'bit of fun' but i think if i was a car salesman and some prospects were sitting in a showroom car with the sound blaring, and ignoring everything i said, i'd be telling them to GTFO pronto

The new Peugeot ad with Sebastian Loeb. When showing off one of the main features, the reversing camera. He demonstrates it by not even using it, as a real driver wouldn't.

[Deranged Rover]

The new BT Plus one with the woman hearing New Order as she walks along.

The ad is fine but which grammatical imbecile came up with the strapline: "Our best connection in and out the home"?

my Dad told me recently that he's ordered a car that had a reversing camera. That struck me as weird, although he maintains he does use it. He could be the only person in the world that does - I just thought they were for bragging rights, which aren't very valid any more as all cars have them.

I had to go on holiday recently to America.

I was given a Nissan Cashcow equivalent and the only good thing about it was the reversing camera - I reversed normally but used it for the last bit - and to make sure no-one suddenly came at my rear with a hot rod.

The new Always advert
'Period Poverty' Really, is that a thing now? are young girls really missing out on friendship and fun because they apparently can't afford sanitary products!?
Here is an idea for you....instead of donating product to UK school girls in need for every pack sold, why not reduce the price to make them more affordable!

I guess it is to be expected that young girls need for the latest iphone has overtaken the need for sanitary products

I believe the campaign is to do with the fact that VAT is charged.

I think there is also a campaign here in Scotland to offer sanitary products free in schools.

What are the parents spending the child benefit on? Perhaps they could use that to buy sanitary products for their daughters?

Get extra for a girl do they? To cover the cost?

I think some people need to remember that there's plenty of parents out there who're not sending their kids to school with lunch/the money to buy lunch. Or breakfast.

If they can't really be bothered to feed them, what makes you think they'll give them anything for sanitary products.

Nationwide

Strange man reciting poetry as though he has something wrong with him alluding to how great they are and how much they care about their customers which in reality is about as much as i care about the east rutland WI jam making scene.

This fking advert:


1 - her awful voice. I believe they call it "vocal fry", and its the main reason I gave up watching Mr Robot, as the women in that spoke in the same way.

2 - "Growing up I didn't have anyone who looked like me". Errr, no-one in New York, or elsewhere in the US, that had a light coffee-colour complexion? Or does she mean a bit overweight? (though I guess most yanks would call her skinny)

3 - "... or I'm running around New York with a huge bouquet of balloons!" Get a proper fking job you vacuous bint.

4 - "blog" oh just fk off.

Is that the one in which she says' I always usually.......' You either do something always or usually you can't do both.

The new chillmax pillow from JML advert!

It's not the pillow making you hot and unable to sleep it's the fact you are wearing clothes in bed in warm weather under a thick duvet/blankets!

Presumably you mean that utterly ste ad with the fking annoying scratchy 'music' soundtrack? It makes my teeth itch - worse than running your nails down a blackboard!

The Microsoft advert in the natural History Museum with animal artist Brooke is quite annoying too.

Stumbled across this petition in Australia to bring back the much loved Trivago girl. It looks as though she's no longer in the Australian ads.

Vision Express, Julie Walters, its on every two minutes with her doing her stupid Jazz Hands dance with a bored look on her face.

For some reason these days she reminds me of an older Burt Reynolds.
