Ben Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 I hate the DFS one as well! As for the average length, I think in general adverts last way too long. Quote
lexiepiper Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 Yeah I agree, there's no need for so many, I mean, they repeat the same adverts every advert break Quote
Heather Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 I don't like the Norich Union ads with the invisable man called Mr. Happy Quote
Nici Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 The joys of Sky+ means I don't have to watch rubbish adverts anymore! Quote
Nollaig Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 There was an advert I loved years ago. It was advertising Dairygold butter, and it was all... either animated or partially CG I think. It had a song that went something like: "We will welcome what tomorrow has to bring Be it fair or stormy weather Take my hand And we'll walk the road together I won't mind If it turns out that we never find the end" (think its Paul Brady) And it had little things like a farmer bringing cows home, and the end was two little kids spinning in a massive field of buttercups, before sliding down a hill of them towards a farmhouse off in the distance. I used to love it!! Quote
Kell Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Just saw the T mobile ad for the 1st time - totally awsome! Quote
Ben Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Anyone seen the Drench one? Where they have Brains from Thunderbirds dancing. Then he takes a break and has a drink. And it says "Lack of water leaves brains dehydrated." I love that advert! Quote

Inver Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Just saw the T mobile ad for the 1st time - totally awsome! Makes you wanna get up and dance doesn't it:D Quote
baggiesfan Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 The ones that i really hate are the "have you been injured or had an accident", god i could really kick the tv when they come one. The one i love at the moment is the follow on milk one with the toddlers laughing. Quote
Kell Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 The ones that i really hate are the "have you been injured or had an accident", god i could really kick the tv when they come one. How come they're always "England and Wales only"? Don't people in Scotland or Ireland have accidents??? I mean, I know the law in Scotland is different to that in England (I dunno about the rest) but surely they could work something out? Quote
Nessicle Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Defo loving the T-Mobile Dance ad! Hate the Cilit bang ones.... Quote
Heather Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 :mrgreen:One of my faves is a butter on "thinks it's anchor" w here the cow is on the motorbike and they play the music to the Great Escape and they say that thier cows are alllowed to roam free. Quote
SueK Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 My fav ad right now has to be the Virgin Airlines 25th Anniversary one to "Frankie Goes to Hollywood" I just love seeing those Hostesses with the cheeky captain walking slowly thorugh the terminal, it's just great. When I was laid up two years ago with a broken ankle/shoulder, through an accident at work, I was drowning in daytime TV and those National Accident Helpline ads were on all the time. Anyway, it must have brainwashed me because when I went back to work I got in touch with National Accident and, to cut a long story, I have won my compensation for Injury at Work an am waiting for my payout!! Hate Cillit Bang ads too and boring Alan Hansen and his "maurrrissons" ads. (Although I do like Morrisons:)). Quote

Weave Posted January 22, 2009 Author Posted January 22, 2009 Like so many others, I like the T~Mobile advert, its a lot of fun I like the advert with all the laughing babies, its for Capol I think Quote
Charm Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 I like the advert with all the laughing babies, its for Capol I think Love this ad! The chuckling is so infectious I hate the Touch'n'Fresh ads for the bathroom air freshener. Whenever I hear that little boy whine it really does my head in! Quote
Colin Jacobs Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 The touch and Fresh ads are Dutch and are overdubbed by the English. Quote
Kell Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 "I want to do a poo at Paul's!" I HATE that advert with a passion! Go to your own bathroom you whinging brat! And nobody needs to know whether it's a wee or a poo you're doing - just do it, flush and remember to wash your hands! Quote
Colin Jacobs Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 This is the overdubbed advert I was talking about. My Mum cringes at the word "Poo" she is so old fashioned and Victorian. Quote
Stephanie2008 Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 "I want to do a poo at Paul's!" I HATE that advert with a passion! Go to your own bathroom you whinging brat! And nobody needs to know whether it's a wee or a poo you're doing - just do it, flush and remember to wash your hands! Ha. I saw that advert for the first time today and can't believe they think that would sell an air freshener! I hate that advert. Quote
pipread Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 I like the advert with all the laughing babies, its for Capol I think I like that advert too, can`t help laughing with them, haven`t got a clue what they`re advertising though! Quote
baggiesfan Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 I like that advert too, can`t help laughing with them, haven`t got a clue what they`re advertising though! I think its for follow on milk. Quote
Heather Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 A advert that I don't like is the one for an estate agents called 'Rightmove' That woman and her dog must be exhusted after all the speed running. Quote
