Archie McBlarter Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 Talksport have some shockers just now: "One nil to Amigo loans" - I thought it was Omega - I looked up the guy who does the ad as I was sure I'd heard his voice somewhere before, turns out he did Superted, anyway, requires immediate muting of the radio when it comes on. "Trade point, Trade point, Trade point" and now some awful fake documentary thing from Barclays bank where a woman pretends to talk to customers who have been helped by the bank, "So tell me how was business going?" "Terrible, we got burgled and all our equipment stolen." Good. Quote
Boris Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 That cider advert that mocks smart phones really grates me. "This is the theeh-ty two pip?" "Move towards the mouth, and...interface!" :muggy: I'm torn on this one. On the one hand it's twee and a pain in the arse, but on the other its a superb satire on tech and rips the pish out of gadget fans. The radio advert that really pisses me of though is that RBS one with tap, tap swipe (or whatever). Quote
micole Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) The Cuprinol ad, that we fecker on a helicopter saying yess yess....... This really does my head in!! Edited May 2, 2014 by micole Quote

I'm not against the satire, but throw in a nippy scouser and a horrendous play on words, and I'm out. Quote

Guest GhostHunter Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 The Cuprinol ad, that we fecker on a helicopter saying yess yess....... This really does my head in!! This. You just know that the actor is like that in real life. Quote
neave Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 There's a Lloyds one on just now with some seriously strange wording. It's the one where the lassie (voiceover) says she was running the family's petrol station but her sister "said [they] were in trouble because [they] were selling more sausage rolls than petrol". The voiceover lassie then goes to Lloyds, apparently discusses a business plan, gets a loan and turns it into an American-style diner. Then at the end she says "[sister's name] says we're doing great". It strikes me as really irresponsible for a major bank to be advertising the ease of getting a loan for someone who relies on their sister to tell her how the business she's personally running (and borrowed against) are performing. Or maybe I'm just looking too much into it. I don't know. Quote

Or maybe I'm just looking too much into it. I don't know. I don't think you are. I've just reviewed the footage. It appears this lassie was running this joint but it took her sister to point out that the business was failing. This was prompted the new idea. Once the idea was implemented one of the big struggles was getting the waitress "Mel's" hair to stand up. It is this "Mel" that is now overseeing the progress of the business and reporting back positively. Mel could well be the lassie's sister but if she is then she's being taken for a mug. Doing all the work while the other lassie basks in the glory of her new diner. Quote
BoJack Horseman Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 That advert on the radio about smoking indoors with the kid at the end that goes "take it RIGHT outside". I've never heard anything more patronising in my life. I don't even smoke, but I want to now. Indoors. Around this kid. So he gets cancer. Quote
Do The Dance Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 The Cuprinol ad, that we fecker on a helicopter saying yess yess....... This really does my head in!! When I saw this thread bumped, I just knew this would be mentioned. I quite liked the Somersby (cider/apple phone thing) ad when I first saw it, quite clever imo. Quote
N User Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Current RBS advert on radio about their banking app. It's two thousand and ******* fourteen, nobody thinks transferring money with your phone is impressive. Quote
cosanostra Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Paint advert with a midget in a tiny plane making all sorts of squealing noises as he almost crashes repeatedly. Change the channel every time I see it on. Gives me the seethe and then some. Quote
Tommy Wiseau Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 "Forgive him, he's an idiot". **** you, you utter dripping ****. Makes my blood boil. Dubbed as well. Quote
JamboRossi79 Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 What do you think of our new ads ? http://www.royallondon.com/tv/advert/ Quote
22HMFC22 Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Radio ad for me, cant even remeber what its for , maybe weight watchers or something ? But basically some bint banging on about food and what you can eat etc, whilst eating !! Pet hate of mine, people talking whilst eating, Quote
EreWeG0.. Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 Who the hell at Amazon, thought that that Kindle Fire advert would HELP sell their tablets ? Good shout. 'I have my niece visiting, and I want to lock all my 'uncle porn'. Shocking advert. Quote
3fingersreid Posted May 15, 2014 Posted May 15, 2014 Sorry if it's been posted already but My mate loans the one with the "orangutans"(sp) Has to have created by kids surely no adult in advertising could be that bad Quote
Stephane Grappelli Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 The Tesco adverts. James 'Mr Green Light' Corden. The one about prostate cancer with the big Jessie in the woolly hat lecturing his dad about 'adult nap time'. Get them all tae phuck! Quote
LeftBack Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 The Epic MoneySupermarket dancing freaks. I actually find it slightly disturbing - turn over as soon as it comes on Quote
Marvin Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 The Kevin Bacon adverts for whichever phone network he's flogging. 3 years on and they're still on the fecking telly Quote
punkrockcroc Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 That ****ing Galaxy advert where the wummin is sitting on the bus and the good looking dude drives up beside her and signals to her to ask her to come and join him in the car, so she sits in the back of his convertible and proceeds to open a bar of Galaxy and then **** off somewhere in the hot Mediterranean sun (no doubt for a ride), all the while Andy ****ing Williams is singing "moon river". Quote
Paolo Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 That ******* Galaxy advert where the wummin is sitting on the bus and the good looking dude drives up beside her and signals to her to ask her to come and join him in the car, so she sits in the back of his convertible and proceeds to open a bar of Galaxy and then **** off somewhere in the hot Mediterranean sun (no doubt for a ride), all the while Andy ******* Williams is singing "moon river". Andy Williams does not sing it in the advert. It is the Audrey Hepburn version from Breakfast at Tiffany's. Quote
JWL Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 The Tesco adverts. James 'Mr Green Light' Corden. The one about prostate cancer with the big Jessie in the woolly hat lecturing his dad about 'adult nap time'. Get them all tae phuck! Total agreement with all of them. I feel they new maltesers adverts are patronising as feck though. In saying that, the malteser one with the guy and his girlfriend dumping him cause she seen him kissing Tracy Dawson was quite funny. Quote
Silvery_Moon Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Anything with James Corden in it. Cannot stand him. Agree about the Moneysupermarket ads too. Quote
Irufushi Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Clearscore adverts And vivus? The loan one, piss off. Quote
Tazio Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Andy Williams does not sing it in the advert. It is the Audrey Hepburn version from Breakfast at Tiffany's. And the woman on the bus is Audrey Hepburn, some very nice image manipulation going on. Quote
Fitzroy Pointon Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 The Epic MoneySupermarket dancing freaks. I actually find it slightly disturbing - turn over as soon as it comes on A guy dancing in hotpants was funny for about five seconds. The fact that they have made four or five of them amazes me. I hate to say it but even the Harvey Keitel ones are beginning to grate on me. Most adverts do though and I avoid them at all costs. Quote
Pennywise Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 I got married because of an advert on the radio. Sent from my VF-895N using Tapatalk Quote
PortyJambo Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 The Vodafone advert with the twat shouting "yes" to his two mates and holding up his phone every time he manages to get a signal. His phone should be shoved up his arse...try and see if you can get a signal now. Quote
Ryan Jarman Posted December 4, 2016 Posted December 4, 2016 New Currys PC World ad. My daughter's away traveling so let's give her a mac notebook to take with her. Away and **** off, that'll be chored or she'll be paening it for coke and buckets of vodka at a Thai full moon party soon enough you mug. Quote

Sooperstar Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 I've only seen the Nationwide one with the lassie in the kitchen and it is rage inducing. Quote
