god she's been pissing me off all week. but I didn't dare post because I knew she was someone's dd. so glad I'm not alone. and wny has she got so much eyeshadow on??? tell us that bbc.

And it seems to be on ten times as much as any other ad. Are they giving you such obscene amounts of money that you are happy to annoy large numbers of mumsnetters?

I've got a handy seed packet to lean against the screen...

Seriously, this is more than just an irritating advert. This is the M&S of FUCKING IRRITATING ADVERTS.

It is totally doing my head in and making me contemplate abandoning MN as there is just NO getting away from it.

Would it help if I clicked on it? Would that make it go away?

heh-heh, I said on the other thread about this that Mylene Klass made me feel violent towards her and was not roundly castigated as a wife-beater. Imagine that on netmums...

Yes and the tilting the head sideways while you're trying to avert your gaze.

DidEinsteinsMum · 19/11/2009 20:25

I was just going to create a thread about this and very glad someone has put a far more suitable title. Stop it, stop her now. Its not the fact that it is an add for cbeebies, its the mad waving and moving about. i want to shove a sharpe pencil in her eye til she runs away crying. a little extreme maybe be but it is too painful to watch that ad nastiness!

mathanxiety · 19/11/2009 17:48

I just posted a thread about this waving child. In AIBU, but maybe it should have been in something more serious? I go on MN to get away from this sort of attention hogging annoying behaviour. And here it is following me.... The other two children were bad enough with the plastered on smiles but this one takes the biscuit. I have taped a post it to the side of the screen. Think I'll need something less see through.

coppertop · 19/11/2009 17:38

It's horrible.

If anything it's put me off switching CBeebies on.

catinthehat2 · 19/11/2009 17:35

The gurning girl with the stage school side bunches has appeared on my screen.

I am losing my thin veneer of geniality.

Please make it stop, or I am going to have to leave.

ProfYaffle · 18/11/2009 17:08

She's following me around she's now appearing on other sites

I swear, it's getting worse.

I don't give a monkeys as long as they load after the main content

nickelbabe · 17/11/2009 13:31

i think MNHQ should request that advertisers should sned in adverts that do not move!
it drives me nutty!

whomovedmychocolate · 17/11/2009 13:28

Actually I think BBC is going to become patron saint of mumsnet soon.

Then you'll be sorry muwhwhwhhahahahhahah!

Milkshake is just telly for kids who need to know what to nag for at Christmas isn't it? And a pig. I don't know why a pig, but I believe there is a certain porcine quality to it.

AitchTwoToTangOh · 17/11/2009 13:21

hahahahaha funny you should say, i let dd watch milkshake this morning. i wonder if it was an unconscious protest?

theyoungvisiter · 17/11/2009 13:18

stop it WMMC, this thread is supposed to convince the bbc they need to stop, not make them realise what a devoted following they've got

I shall report your post for deletion on the grounds that it's spoiling the campaign.

whomovedmychocolate · 17/11/2009 13:09

Nothing is bad enough to make me want to watch Milkshake

theyoungvisiter · 17/11/2009 13:08

You know what would be great? If they want to get attention to I Can Cook - how about a little square with this week's recipe and a link to the site?

I was really impressed with the cheese and tomato swirls she did yesterday and made them with DS.

If I saw an enticing-sounding recipe printed on the ad it WOULD make me more likely to watch (and I could make sure I had the ingredients in stock before the programme).

But a smirking tweenie is just begging me to ban telly for a month.

theyoungvisiter · 17/11/2009 13:05

MN PLEEEEEEEEEEASE tell Cbeebies they have got it SO EFFING WRONG with this advert.

I HAVE annoying children who badger me for my attention all the fecking time (mostly because they want to watch cbeebies, how's that for irony?)

I do not need cbeebies to provide me with a virtual gurning, grinning, waving, hopping, infuriating child as well.

I am starting to hate the BBC and I never thought that was possible. Please tell them that this advert is NO WAY to win customers, in fact they are really and truly pissing me off here, I am considering a milkshake takeover just to register a protest.

AitchTwoToTangOh · 17/11/2009 12:13

she's back.

Has she been censored? I'm just getting a calm green square now, with an invitation to click a link to recipes.
