The one where she breezes into the cafe to meet equally annoying woman and they whitter on about how fantastic they feel,
"i haven't felt this good since I was 30"

Oh I hate it.

And the Greg Wallace one is just as annoying. I cant stand him though!

OneFingerSjupesUpTheYoni · 12/04/2013 14:52

Bleuch yep i hate it too! She basically repeats the same crap from the other ad in a different location Confused

She's a bollock ..

BettySwollocksandaCrustyRack · 12/04/2013 14:56

I hate the Mel B Jenny Craig one!!! Such a load of shite plus we all know...she was never big to start with and probably never even did the Jenny Craig diet!!

Patsy Kensit gets on my pip too :)

Sparklingbrook · 12/04/2013 15:02

I don't remember PK being particuarly overweight. Confused

The Mel B one makes me want to rant. Food 'delivered to your doorstep'. YY ok if you are a millionaire Mel. Hmm

EsmeWeatherwax · 12/04/2013 15:04

No, YANBU. Not even remotely!

WillYouDoTheFandango · 12/04/2013 15:05

I've only seen the first PK one, but every time it makes me irrationally angry! I find myself shouting "Bet the dieticians and personal trainers didn't hurt either!" Can you see her popping down to her local community centre to weigh in? Or looking up the points in a cod and chips online?

KatoPotato · 12/04/2013 15:10

She doesn't even show a before photo!!! ffs

xfrillyknickersx · 12/04/2013 15:20

Yeah they are a tad annoying to say the least!!!

Mrsrobertduvall · 12/04/2013 15:23

Dh said this morning after watching it "have you considered weight watchers?"
I am 6 feet tall, weigh 11 stone 12 and am sixe 14. Yes, I have put on an inch or two round my waist but am addressing that.

Greg Wallace creeps me the fuck out. I can no longer watch Master Chef. Bleurgh.

YoniliaHoax · 12/04/2013 15:27

But that's Business breakfast woman!
She lost tons of weight as well.
hate that advert, it's so stupid.

Gerrof · 12/04/2013 15:30

Have you seen the latest Tena lady one?

She is late to a theatre and has to push past people to get to her seat. She is wearing a red frock and shoves her arse in people's faces and does some kind of tango with another woman halfway down the row.

And then shows her knickers with tena pants on.

What is that supposed to say? Wear these and brush your arse in people's faces and they won't be able to smell the PISS?

I shouted at the telly yesterday when that came on. I am getting to taht age where I yell at adverts. Sad

Gerrof · 12/04/2013 15:31

BrEKKfast BISCuits with Lisa Snowdon.

They way she says breakfast biscuits with emphasis makes me rage.

And Kerry Katona putting a posh voice on for the payday loan advert, the shrew-eyed twat.

squoosh · 12/04/2013 15:34

That Tena Lady woman needs to stop being so happy pissing herself and get an appointment with a urologist.

BettySwollocksandaCrustyRack · 12/04/2013 15:37

The one I really hate is for some sort of beer with Jean Claude Van Damme wearing ridiculous denim dungarees doing snow angels.

He was so gorgeous in the late 80's early 90's and now................

Makes my teeth itch!

specialsubject · 12/04/2013 15:40

mrsrobertduvall - sounds like the useless blubber isn't on you....

I weigh a bit more and am shorter. It isn't you that needs to take action - and even I am only a little tubby.

off for a walk.

MandragoraWurzelstock · 12/04/2013 15:55

Was she ever fat?

I hate the sparkle one. She so hasn't got it back and those frocks are like something the Queen wears.

WillYouDoTheFandango · 12/04/2013 16:34

Gerrof Grin I've just seen that one. I thought it would be for Special K not Tena Lady.

There's another Tena Lady one where the woman is in the bath Confused surely in the bath you can leak to your hearts content and noone but you will know?

KatieScarlett2833 · 12/04/2013 16:36

I hate the KK one too.
Take financial advice from Ms bankrupt? I think not.

Gerrof · 12/04/2013 16:36

Yes I thought it was the Special K wo,an as well. I was quite pleased that it showed a woman patently in her 40s and not someone of 20 something. Until they showed the piss briefs that is.

OhLori · 12/04/2013 16:59

Agree with everyone. Women are always prancing about laughing unconvincingly, drinking wine with their mates in adverts. Just a tiny, tiny bit unrealistic Shock. Diet adverts are the worst though.

TeacupTempest · 12/04/2013 17:07

SOVERYLUCKY Are you serious?! Haven't seen that coop one but I am so cross I nearly threw my cup of tea across the room! I want to write a strongly worded letter.

thebody · 12/04/2013 17:42

Geroff, I just spat out my coffee, literally.

thebody · 12/04/2013 17:44

Ffs just read sqoosh re the tennis lady happily pissing herself.
