The Plantur 39 advert really annoys me. It goes on a bit about hair loss then says 'it's particularly popular with' and the woman in the advert leans forward and whispers 'over 40' I mean Hmm

Also the Numan advert for some sort of viagra tablet where the man bellows about ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION, I am not sure their target market will be watching Steph's Packed Lunch but ok Confused

Oh I'm glad somebody else here doesn't know who the perfect, pure white clad wafting woman is either. Maybe she's famous on RTE or something. I get the impression we're meant to know.

I'm another bad person who doesn't like the guide dog ad. It starts ok. It's just the ridiculous upbeat-ness of Toffee being the ring bearer!!! As the viewer is still contemplating the tragedy of a young woman's noble dreams of her vocation turning to ashes by the sudden cruel strike of blindness, and the potential loss to society of a whole career's worth of a vital worker in the profession. But hey who cares it's all ok cos Toffee gets to be the ring bearer!!! Like, maybe Toffee will lead her through the building where she's going to do some sort of access course and end up working for the NHS helping visually impaired children or something...c'mon Toffee...ring bearer is not going to be the highlight of your guide dog career.

I did wonder whether they actually meant to imply that as a man was still prepared to marry her (because she had a dog?) everything would be OK.
