Current best/worst adverts
Obviously 'Picture' the loan is still pure evil. Also anything with daft music like the Rice Krispies' Muddles' one, that is so annoying.
Some furnitire company, I think its Harverys has done an ad with a lady with large ***** in a vest top, at the end she flops back on to a bed with much jiggling, fantastic ! Anyone else seen it ?

Oh it was advertising something was it ??? Generally though, some adverts are incredibly artistic and clever, whilst some are just 'obscene lies' (banks, insurance, debt etc..) My current hate is the PC World ad. Some T*** approved it, some T*** thought of it, and they both got paid, incredible.

HATE the 'Picture Loans' one (moron with the football)!
I'm sure he is a perfectly nice guy but for some reason every time I see it, I have this incredible urge to grind his face into a bl**dy pulp!
Have NO idea why this should be so!
Quite LIKE the 'Rhythm of Life' one for Guinness. Is it for Guinness?
Blimey, that was wasted on me then!
(Advert being so clever, cannot remember what it was actually advertising!)
Nothing at the mo to rival that all-time great though......the bulldog, the cat & the mouse, in front of the 'real fire'!
Remember that one?

No he is not, he is a ****1ng annoying **** and his missus videos him whilst on the phone, also he mentions bloody football, cos all men loooooove football and thats bound to make us bond.
On the Football thing, have you seen the one for some yoghurt type drink crap and sort of goes through a house writing word on things whilst some bloke waffles, its 'pretty nifty', a drink that lowers your blood pressure, 'but only if we win all our home games', even with my rudimentary understanding of football, surely the home games are no less important that the away games, and they put that in why ? cos all us men loooove football, were f*ckin football crazy and will buy any old **** if theres a football link.

Latest spray more get more Lynx ads are good.
Direct line identical twins is annoying.
Three adverts just intentionally annoy you so you go on a BBS and rant about them...thus advertising them more (I'm not fooled
)
Any loans adverts using crap analogies (spelling is intended ) especially ocean's latest offering of tripe

The ironic thing is that all the technically rubbish adverts with crap ideas and rubbish actors are usually the ones everybody remembers, which at the end of the day is what it's all about!

The Lynx adverts are pretty good
Last night on French telly I saw an advert for Peugot (or was it Citroen?...one fo the french cars)...music by....Marilyn Manson (Sweet Things).
Whatever next? A Cradle of Filth backtrack to Tampax....actually that might go quite well together come to think of it

Whilst on the subject of adverts but not in the same vein as the OP, has anybody seen the Phillips MRI scanner advert????
I'm thinking of buying one for Christmas for family and friends to use.

None of you have seen the absolutely HUNDREDS of ads for kids' toys, especially little girls stuff, then? ALL with horrid AMERICAN accents
Just because the nasty product is American.
............we speak ENGLISH here, so if you want to sell yor product, at least put an English voice over........

Although they've stopped showing them on my network, I thought the Honda ads were really good. You know, the American bloke narrating or singing, whistling and bunnies etc.
Fed up with the Magners & DFS (another sale?) ones though.
