What TV adverts irrationally annoy you at the moment?

[MyEasterBonnet]

Just a lighthearted thread, but I keep seeing a Simba advert where a guy is stacking an insane amount of biscuits up while in bed, and then his partner just acts like a dick and knocks them over, sending them flying everywhere. And the worst bit is that they’re sat on the bed and don’t have a bedsheet on.

There’s also one for blinds where the most annoying voice in the world says “It’s your home darling” and then promptly get muted by me as I hate his voice so much.

Anyone want to add any more?

Anything with screaming in, esp cordosyl, so bloody loud. Love the weird KFC ads though.

Absolutely the Pepto Bismol one and the whole body deodorant one - just gross.
Also the Marc Jacob’s Daisy one where they endlessly repeat the word Daisy.
I also think we’ll end up with a PPI mis-selling scandal over direct cremation. Horrible adverts playing to people’s worst fears.

I have often wondered whether the pee pads woman will ever get any other TV ad work, since she’s going to be forever associated with bulky, widdle-soaked pee pads.

The singing body parts one by Holland and Barrett, makes me switch over to another channel.

I agree - it’s hideous. And the enormous cardboard cutouts in Tesco. Looks like a monster with a terrible skin disease.
I actually think it’s frightening for small children.

I just don’t watch them anymore. I love streaming so can avoid most ads but if one does come on I immediately pick up my phone to look at something else. I find 99% of ads awful. DH does however like the one with the big shaggy dog who wants to know where all the mud has gone - Flash 😂

My in-laws bought their funerals up front and it went well for them when the time came. I thought it might be hassle, but the directors were fair and the costs were all covered. They are a good idea and a lot of money to find at a sad time without one in place . . In fact , I often wondered why funeral directors are not investigated more as there are few poor ones around where I live even for cremations.
Paying up front must save money ( if you have the spare cash in the first place ) but the ads are bad for getting this across.

The one for chewing gum with the mouth on the foreheads.

I just remembered another one, Jude Law eating chicken 🤢

What about the one where the annoying woman in red (is she the personification of a period? or am I reading it wrong?) comes and throws all the sanitary pads at the woman.... and then shrieks something like I'm Leaking when they're out jogging. Period Woman gives me The Rage.

Jude law is so annoying and smug. I can remember when he ran off with his child’s nanny or something like that years ago. I bet he has a big ego too.
So many older stars doing ads, must pay well and be easy money.

the Trivago add with the bloke with horses teeth. I’d sack off the dentist who did that.

I love that song!! I was looking for it online but couldn’t find it. Thank you for telling me it was from a Vodaphone ad, that might help 🥰

The spec savers one during the emmerdale break.

Omg I hate this one!! Its so long as well

The fruit monster is odd and a bit scary.
Most ads seem to be annoying these days. What marketing people are thinking I’m not sure.

Yep. I rush to turn it over before the diarrhoEEEAAAAAA bit comes on. Gives me the rage.

was coming to say this! So annoying.

The money .

Could I give a dishonorable mention to the chap who goes on holiday with a case full of Heinz baked beans and cries all holiday because the case goes missing. Why didn't he just go to Margate if he wants baked beans at every meal?

The beans one annoys me too. He’d have to pay a hefty fine for such a heavy case at the airport and why go away to only eat beans ? Makes little sense. Maybe if he was shown him in a caravan in Norfolk and had forgotten his beans stash , but then found the the local
shop sold them and he could be happy again buying up the stock from there.

I loath the Pepto Bismol one and all the incontinence/period pads ones.

And I find it difficult to believe that the woman with the bulky pee pants would be riding one a mans's shoulders even if she did swap to Tena.

She in one for fitted kitchens. Wren?

I absolutely hate that Simba advert. It's not the lack of sheeting (there never is in any of them), it's the petty meanness of shoving over his stack of crackers and her smug delight in it.

On the Beach radio ads.

I mourn the loss of terrestrial TV, when adverts seemed to try harder and be genuinely entertaining. I've just subscribed to Channel4+, just to get rid of the feckin' ads. Money well-spent. The dog is obsessed with "Police Interceptors" on Channel 5, but it's not possible to subscribe to that, so I have to endure if he wants me to put it on for him (why do I enable this reign of terror?!). Perhaps this is the point - adverts these days are SO sh~te that they induce us to sign up to subscription packages, just to avoid them. Hmmm...

The Vitality dog can f~ck right off too. Don't those idiots know what the "Enola Gay" song they use is actually about?!

Agree. Why does she use it when she makes her bed? Why does she have such huge cheek implants?

It can't be good to inhale that shit all the time anyway.
