You'd think Coleen Nolan would invite at least some of her sisters.

OMG yanbu!!! I got about 10 seconds into it the first time I saw it before changing the channel. Now it is changed before they even open their mouths.
And Aurora - that has infuriated me from the start of their stupid adverts.

I'm just glad Kerry Katona isn't gurning her way through the ads anymore.

(The food all looks disgusting)

YABU - why damage your own property? Throw the brick through a window at an Iceland store...

It is appalling, the food looks dreadful and Jason looks desperate. His eyes say "I used to go out with Kylie Minogue, and look at me now."

On the other hand "Here come the sodding girls" is the one that gets me leaving the room in disgust.

Jason looks like he hasn't eaten for months let alone gorged himself on a party platter from Iceland.

what colour are those chicken pasties....or are they cardboard. Everything looks like the tasteless,dry stuff you get in value packs. I hate ready done sausage rolls...there isnt a bit of pork any where near them...its all rusk.

Is Jason really that desperate for money that he would do an advert that looks as the it was from the 1950's

If you watch it closely you will notice NOONE eats the food. Oh, they get close,but no actual biting or chewing takes place...says it all about the fodder food they sell

i love the Iceland ad. It is so cheesy it's great.

however, I draw the line at actually eating any of the food.

Come on . . I can't be the only one?

I so agree! The food looks horrendous. I also hate with a passion the confused dot com when they all waggle their thumbs.

At least you haven't got Kerry K going BIG POSH PRAAAAHNS all over the place.

That American pudding selection looks disgusting.

Can you imagine how foul chocolate covered strawberries from Iceland would cost?

Mind you if they sold chocolate covered strawberries in Waitrose I would probablyu think they were the best thing ever
