Egluntyne Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 The advert I can't stand is the one where the lady is on the phone getting a loan, and shout to son Josh that "Dad's found your scootA"!!! Me too!! Smug mare......I could punch her lights out......and that fellow called Chris who wants to borrow £25,000 from Picture....I'd have no difficulty murdering him! Twerp. The music could easliy make me turn violent too, it is so irritating.! And what about Hi....I'm BARRY SCOTT.....ARRRGH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couperman Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Don't you just love BARRY SHOUTY SCOTT! BANG! and the annoying fool is gone where's my gun! Elephant.co.uk stop advertising if you don't want to spend more than it takes to put on a school play. Carling Black Label made some belters in the nineties. 'I bet he drinks Carling Black Label, Nah he doesn't wash his underpants' class! The best artistic advert has got to be the Guinness White surfy horses one that everyone thought was advertising aftershave. Kev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 What about Hastings direct dot com!! Why on earth does the little knight in shining armour have a wooden car? And what about Admiral. No expense spared there. And the mondeo adverts where people tie balloons to their old cars and let them float of into the ether. It tells you nothing about the Mondeo at all. Madness.

Couperman Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Hamlet Cigar ads were always funny. The one with the bald guy in the photo booth trying to get his hair right! My particular favourite was one with a bloke on a desert island with two palm trees on it. A chest floats by with sharks circling it. He chops down a tree and uses it to get the chest. When he opens the chest there is a hammock and a pack of cigars in it! very clever Kev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 I don't think its been on TV, but I saw a brilliant ad at the movies last week. It was for The Daily Mails sunday supplements, & had 2 armies, one of men & one of women battling in a field. The men were sending remote control cars over, & the women snappy little lap daogs. It was very good indeed The Orange ones at the movies always make me chuckle too....the ones where the guys are trying to hire an actor to play a part in a movie. The Patrick Swayzee one was great!

Couperman Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 I'm still trying to understand the Vauxhall Corsa knitted people. Why is there a selection of knitted people chasing a corsa? Yeh bit strange that one, how do they reach the pedals! It also suggests that only muppets drive Corsa's, Come on!! The hide and seek one was better! Kev.

Cinnamon Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 My girls won't eat Shreddied now that they have seen that ad where old ladies knit them & TOUCH THEM WITH THEIR FINGERS to take them off the knitting needles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couperman Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Could be worse Sarah! Shreddies is slang for underpants in some parts! Coco pops 'it even turns the milk brown' they changed it to choclatty for some strange reason. That geordie Scoootah wench is annoying, won't talk to her husband cos she's on the fern to pickcha, but will bellow at the kids aboot the Scoootah even tho she's on the fern to pickcha.! I do like the geordie accent on a girl though especially when she says wud ye like sum Gattoohhh (cake) there's a story behind that one! Kev.

Couperman Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Couldn't possibly divulge all the details! Lets just say it involved a Hotel on the A1, a Geordie waitress, a dessert trolley, several blindfolds, 200ft of rope, a fire extinguisher and one hit wonder nineties pop prats Brother Beyond. OOh i do love Gattoooh. I've made myself sound quite interesting in a News of the World kinda way, This was pre-marital bliss of course! Don't touch Gateaux these days! Kev.

Couperman Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 (edited) All that and no one got arrested!??? Err...... I didn't say there were no arrests Nathan and his merry band of drunken groupies and meathead minders were thrown out of the hotel for doing the rock star thing, even though no-one had heard of them! The police were in attendance as I recall vaguely. The booze bill was met by the company for a week Edit: Oh yeah forgot to mention, I was on a course from work, teambuilding, playing pointless silly games, hence the rope and blindfolds. The fire extinguisher went off all on its own your honour! My bill for the week was £1,715 because everyone thought it would be fun to book their drinks to my room number as i was only 17. The Gateaux Princess only ever supplied me with Gateaux unfortunately, I just liked the way she said it.............*goes for a cold shower* Kev.

Rhapsody Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 My husband has to leave the room during the Dulco-Ease ad. The idea of ladies discussing their poo really disturbs him, that and the fact one of them has the stuff in her handbag! BARRY SCOTT is cherishably naff; one that does for me is the optician one where they promise 'not to treat you like a sausage' Any ad where breakfast cereal is slapped down in front of children and promoted as a healthy start to the day has me yelling stuff about Slack-A***d Mums Who Should Get Out of Bed Earlier and Boil an Egg at the tv.

Egluntyne Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Back to bowels...I can't be doing with the gaggle of middle aged slappers banging on about their bowels in the Activia ads. The dark haired piece of mutton dressed as lamb in particular gets me down....the one who says "give it a fair try for a few days" Arrrgh!
