Continuing on...Jonny Regan in ads? World's gone mad.

I think he's quite good in it though. I'd make him a cuppa if he came to fix my boiler.

Is that a euphemism?

If that floats your boat.

Hey, whatever flicks your switch.

When did Lewis get a job advertising for Fiat?

also, Bob Hoskins (sorry, Bobo) doing the voiceover for Argos in their adverts.
"Dahn't shop fer it. Ahhhrgus it. You caaaahhnnt!"

That one with the little kids in the band (I think its for a Tesco voucher promotion), where the little kid belts out 'Wild Thing' at the top of his voice coz they don't have enough vouchers for a microphone. That always makes me smile

What exactly is in cat milk that makes it differ from regular milk?

Also the new Jenny Eclair salt 'full of it' ads are creepy, especially with that tinny little voice.

I saw an advert for Norton Finance last night where they interviewed "real people" in the street and it was shot in Leeds.

I got a bit too excited.

I wasn't in the background so I soon calmed down.

Well it's cat milk.....you know, milk from cats. There's a whole farm devoted to it on Dartmoor.

That Bradford & Bingley one is awful.

It makes me hate a pretty girl, and that can't be good.

I have just noticed that they have changed the National Helpline Direct advert.

It has exactly the same plot (woman tripping over some plastic ties they use for wrapping boxes then suing the world for her stupidity), however what once was a stocky woman with a puffy face, is now a more slender and attractive woman.

I can see no reason for this change except that focus groups care less about injuries to people they would not doink, boo hiss.

I like the new BUPA ads. They remind me of the Mr Men cartoons.

In that Vinnie Jones ad, when he gets out of the car and the woman shouts 'VINNIE!' it would have been so much better if she'd followed it with 'YOU CAHNT!'

^If Vinnie Jones needs a mechanic us regular guys must really be in trouble.

Nikki from Big Brother advertising pizza.
The time for her scowling mug to bugger off back to obscurity has long passed. I'm seriously confused as to why she's suddenly back on TV.

The Clearasil 'Big brother...' ads are annoying, if only because they are so poorly dubbed.

Lately we seem to get a lot of American ads which have been dubbed with Australian voices.
It's really stupid because they always look so American anyway.
Plus the voices never seem quite right with the faces.

Really people!
Either make your own ads or just leave the American voices in!

I love the little kid in the new 118 ad, and the dude doing 'the caterpillar' in the background...it made me sniggle

This is now my favourite new word.

SNAP-ple!

Stool softeners?

WTF? Why are we getting all the things nowadays for women's problems which we men were never told existed?

Ignorance truly is bliss.

Don't you mean a cushion?

If only, Mel. If only.................

She is teh beautiful.

I've just got back from the cinema (went to see 300) and just have to say how much I hate sitting through that freaking awful Odeon advert where everyone disappears......yes, Odeon we've all seen it now....mulitple times!...... we know its not actually a film trailer, it wasn't even good the first time!
The only thing good about it is the fact that it has the Pete Rodriguez "I like it like that" song in it....albeit briefly!............New ad please Odeon!!!!.......(but keep the tune!)

What is 'Brand Power' and who are they to tell me how to 'buy better'.

They just told me to buy Nescafe Cappuccino, which is a bad purchase on every conceivable level; poor ethical decision, disgusting frothy coffee from powder.

I don't understand either, Nestlevil have money to poop at the screen and they get Brand Power to sell their stuff for them.

Bang! and the coffee's gone!

I think Brand Power are a charity advertising agency that likes to help out unfortunate big business.

Aww that's sweet.

"Here, Coca-Cola Corp, we'll do a shit advert staring that woman who looks like the one Daddy ran off with from the Bookies for you."

I feel your pain, man.

OH MY GOD. I'm actually in shock.

Has anyone seen the new 'Brantano' advert?

I... don't know what to say.

I found it very informative. I didn't realise there was a part of the female brain dedicated to shoes.

Is it even worth getting angry when something is so utterly stupid?

Do you know, I think it is.

Its not that bad, is it?

I'm not sure...I thought it was ironic enough.

But then, I hate women.

I'd be shocked if something didn't anger you to one degree or another Zoe. But you are right, they are appalling adverts.

Ha ha ha, I'm not an angry person, in fact I rarely let stuff bother me at all.

I am a dried up, old feminist though.

I'd say it would be. Apart from being horrible adverts in terms of content, they're also pretty shoddily made.

Why is the official beer of England German? Is it to match our official royal family?

I'm going to use a sealink ferry to do totally random things like extreme ironing, too.

Hmmm.

Which one? Carlsberg? Because that's Danish.

Two adverts which have got my attention at the moment, probably for good reason, are the adverts for Dove and for Evans.

Both feature lovely curvy non-stick thin women, and they look bloody ruddy gorgeous.

Them Yellow Pages ads are pissing me off. All slow motion shots of vets and plasterers with that accented voice over "this is for all the risk takers, shit cleaners, sweet wrappers.." or suchlike. Cock.

They're fucking awful, though my problem is more to do with listing prominent pyschologists alongside a shoemaker. It reeks of poncy advertising executives thinking they're beening clever by being so flippant.

Also currently on my hate list - Sensodyne. It's another of those rubbish "one expert in front of a camera telling it how it is" type adverts I hate so. Irritating woman, irritatingly pointless camera angles, a close shot of the eyes and the it's over. Crap from start to finish.

I still don't get the PS3 adverts

Well the original Playstation "Double Life" and PS2 "Third Place" ads were hardly super-intelligible. I think Sony Computer Entertainment just like commisioning strange adverts.

I hate that car advert for the one with "Panoramic sunroof." Panoramic? Upwards? You can only see sky, for fuck's sake.

Anyone seen the ad with the Big Train theme on it yet?

Yes, I don't like it.
