No matter how bad it gets, just cast your mind back to the Jamster ads...

The worst without a shadow of doubt is that "Picture Loan" one with the bloke getting a £25K loan whilst his wife is videoing him.

Fecking annoying that one

I sat and watched that Trident ad last night and thought WTF? Not at all funny and that bloke is truly annoying. But it's got us talking, so perhaps that was the desired effect?

No, I wouldn't. I'll stick to "blow your head off" Airwaves if I ever want some chewing gum. So you're night.

Says it all about Vauxhall drivers, fat lazy *******

Said it many time before any Halifax advert with Howard, how I would like to wipe him and hid family out and now that overweight ugly 'woman.'

If the Halifax were to give free money away I wouldn't partake on simple principle.

Calm down Rich, rant over

That AA car insurance one with the AA team in the back of the car with the nerd "That's nice man" and his mate in the front. Just makes me cringe......

If your onl cable; Sky's dirty tricks adverts telling you to complain to virgin;NTL becuase sky aren't getting their own way for once

Apart from that, any ford advert with that stupid guitar riff at the end. WHY? what is the point? It makes no impact on the advert at all.

Same as that "express delivery" thing at the end of the express adverts, or the "a family company" at the end of johnsonn adverts

1. Barry Bloody Scott and **** Bang or however it is spelt.
2. Hastings car insurance 1066 and all that.
3. Vauxhall Corsa - WTF?
4. Staybright Windows.
5. T Mobile, the moving house/post code one - and any advertisement with crappy, whiney music.
6. AA You've Got a Friend - if I am not mistaken all the cars being shown are Japanese.
7. Arty farty Audi A6 one.

Rant over - must be time of the month.

Ahh see I quite like Barry Scott, I prefer to imagine him going about his daily routines shouting extremely loudly to anyone he comes into contact with!

Come on...how come none of you have mentioned that f**king Frosties advert with that **** of a kid on? "They're gonna taste great!"

Fair play on the Picture Loans advert, hes not even sure how much he wants to borrow when hes on the phone either! "How much did we want to borrow? Oh yeah, £25k..." not the sort of amount you just forget is it

T Mobile seem to be more experienced and skilled at producing diabolical adverts for their products. The one that annoys me most and makes me want to throw my own TV out of the window is the one with the recorder(?) music with the bloke falling into the tiles which ripple underneath him.

"Just another diamond day... Just a blade of grass..."

Truly AWFUL music!

You've all forgotten the worst one that is currently doing the rounds. That god awful Butlins one with the two kids horrifically over acting "we know what kids really want". Drives me up the wall that one.

Agree on the picture ones, the Geordie woman casually arranging 25 grands worth of very expensive credit whilst some off screen kid pesters her. Then the annoying gimp off the other Picture advert appears to go to football, those two f*ckers should be putting in the overtime at the weekend rather than poncing off to football.
