I love the Perter Kay - John Smiths ones, and the Honda Accord ad. Golf ad is pretty good too.

I think the best one recently was the Wall's Sausages - where the family dog is fighting at the dinner table for the sausages off the plate - ends up getting chucked out of the window, then slams against the glass and slides down it - absolutely brilliant - makes me laugh every time I saw it.

It got moved to post watershed due to a number of complaints about promoting animal cruelty to children FFS - it was SOOO obviously a fake fecking dog!!

AND - AND I CAN'T BELIEVE NO ONE ELSE HAS PICKED UP ON THIS - your fave advert is CRAZY FECKING FROG!!! - hellllloooooo - this was voted the worst, most irritating advert this millennia on here a few weeks/months ago...... and I reckon thats being kind to it!

I kinda like the Ryvita mini's one with Fern Britton's head pasted on a fit body. Like a much better (albeit easier) version of the VW ''singin' in the rain'' one.

The song is by Lunatic Calm and it's called Leave you Far Behind. From the album Metropol.
The Citreon C4 transformer ad is something by Les Rhythmes Digitales but I can't remember the name of the song - good track tho' ..

my favs at the moment are

The pepsi max one (anyone remember those rubber thingies you soaked in water and washing up liquid, chucked at the wall and they then climbed down).... lol the ad makes me laugh.

The Citroen one - Very well done

Golf ad - Classic

The most annoying ads have to be all the fekin phone tone ads... who gives a **** they are SOOOOOO ANNOYING!!!!!

I find the singin in the rain Golf ad a bit disturbing somehow.
The C4 tranformer ad has got very old very quickly and is a bit meaningless, but clever.

Nevermind the ads, what about the new Channel 4 station idents? The ones where you briefly see the Ch4 logo as all the bits line up. Brilliant!
