How crap is the new “go outdoors” advert?

“Why don’t you (x5)
just switch off your phones and tech and go out and do something less boring instead?”

It’s so bad!

Aww. It reminds me of my youth.

I'm not aware of your age ( obviously!) but there used to be a kids programme called 'why don't you' (70's/80's), and that was the theme tune. Although it was 'why don't you just switch off the television set and go out and do something less boring instead'
Was very catchy!
But I hate this version and hate the advert!

Oh wow I didn’t know that! I was born late 80’s so wouldn’t have been the right age to see that. So they’re playing on the nostalgia thing to get people’s attention for this one!

I HATED Why Don't You...
Whiny theme tune. Annoying children....

You'd have to be my age (early 50s) or even older to remember that programme. I had a brief flicker of nostalgia on first hearing the tune which then switched to irritation with how tedious the advert was.

Most of their target audience won't even get the connection and will go straight to being bored or irritated.

I loved that show and I’m 42!

I’ve just looked up the original show and theme tune and it's just as annoying as the ad! It’s awful!

That show featured Ant McPartlin in his first presenting role, prior to Byker Grove and hooking up with Dec. Yes, I am indeed ancient.

I'd rather be on my phone.

I saw the advert earlier and thought it was rubbish, but i did recognise the song to be similar to the why don't you programme. I used to watch it and i'm late 30's

Ha, as soon as the song started I thought of why don't you, although the tune was wrong and then it turned out to be the actual lyrics wonder who gets thecroyalries from the ad?

Loved that show, don't know how long it ran for but I'm 43 so don't know that you'd have to be over 50 to remember it!

I agree it a very irritating ad, no nostalgia in that rendition of the song...

I remember that programme and I'm late 30s.

I’m 43 and remember it well!

I’m 48. I loved “Why Don’t You?”. I also rather like Go Outdoors.
