Thanks Sazza.
Thanks Sazza.
Yes,there was a thread about her some weeks ago. She has her pink suit on & Hershey the dog makes an appearance.I might be late to the party on this one, but watching GB News, in the ad break up pops Evey (the languid BA who used to sell Join clothing). Very soft focus lens, promoting Evey preloved. I think it's second hand bags and accessories she's flogging. She called herself a tv presenter - new name for brand ambassadors I suppose.
I like the Centre Parcs one,the music by All Saint's and the woman on the water slideAdverts generally annoy the hell out of me. I'll tape a programme rather view it live so I can fast-forward ads.
I did catch the Twix one with the twins and the bears a few weeks ago. That's the kind of ad I like. My favourite is the Specsavers Luton airport Shuttle one. Makes me laugh every time.
Yes that's a good one. The Leonard Rossiter and Joan Colin's ones were very funny.They don't make good or funny adverts any more, but I always laugh at the current Nationwide one " They can't even spell banker" - "It's not banker"!
I laugh at it because Nationwide are such hypocrites...they make a huge deal about not shutting branches...straight after they'd already shut a load including my local one! And they care so much about their customers that, unlike 90% of other financial institutions, they won't let people pay in at their local post office!They don't make good or funny adverts any more, but I always laugh at the current Nationwide one " They can't even spell banker" - "It's not banker"!
No youre right. I saw the two chimpanzees the other day moving a piano up stairs and the son said, Dad do you know the pianos on my foot. His dad replied you hum it son and I will play it. It was for PG Tips. Bet it wouldnt be allowed these days.They don't make good or funny adverts any more, but I always laugh at the current Nationwide one " They can't even spell banker" - "It's not banker"!
Yes I am glad we don’t allow animal cruelty for the sake of selling tea anymore. I live near Twycross zoo where those traumatised PG ‘‘tis chimps were sent to retire. Pitiful sight.No youre right.

I see some ads and wonder if I live in a parallel universe. Perhaps some mode of lifestyle and relationships are more common place in the cities, but are rather alien where I live in rural Britain.
I think the worst advert at the moment is that woman who slurps through a straw.
Think it's pot noodles!Another one I need to look for.
Yeah that's what I thought.Think it's pot noodles!
Yes, when Mr.MB watches live sport I too have seen the ads and the numerous impotence one's. Recently they've been showing a weight loss pill and diet plan targeted at men. Oh boy,when I saw the name of the drug flash up,it brought back memories of when my gp prescribed it. Awful stuff,would definitely encourage folk not to try it. One particular side effect is awful.I haven't seen that one, nor the Nationwide one. The joys of recording everything so I can avoid all the crap ads.
Mr. AE is a massive sports fan. He watches it live so has to watch the ads. I rarely watch the telly when he's watching but I've caught some of the ads.
Are they trying to stun blokes into submission? The only ones on are cures for baldness or impotence treatments.
Mr. AE used to work in a very male-dominated industry and was amazed at the amount of young men buying little blue pills from internet or some of the more enterprising blokes that sold them by the dozen.
I bang on a lot about younger people but this sort of takes the biscuit. Are young men so ****-addled they have to use these pills or do they think that banging away like a jack-rabbit (anyone remember that scene from *** And The City?) is really what women want?
My nephew has just had a hair transplant. In Turkey. He's come home with a weirdly unnatural hairline complete with an infection in it that the NHS is having to sort out.
I despair.
