why the heck does tv love PA so much ? ive never seen such a cheesefest and smugness advert. ever.

all the ladies swooning and hes talking about the food. gaaaah!

hes so up himself its unbelievable.

worse than the Kerry ones. and the ads are on every single bloody ad break on every single channel that has ads.

will just have to watch BBC for the next few months!

there are a few really annoying adverts out atm. the other one is the one (Cant even remember what its for) where a mans going to throw a sock bunny or something in the bin and his dog looks at him and theres an awful 80's type ''song'' which reminds me of Ross on Friends and his keyboard playing!

Yanbu

It's ridiculously cheesy.

At least he's earning money to pay for his all his kids, not like some feckless fuckers. How he chooses to do it is up to him. If you don't like it......turn it off.

I really don't believe he's up himself, I think he's quite a self conscious person in reality.

I'm not a fan, I wouldn't buy or listen to his music but I don't think he's ever done anything bad enough to receive such hatred on here.

I also don't get the orange comments? Isn't he Greek and therefore has a slightly darker more tanned skin tone?

MrsVamos · 10/09/2014 19:51

Earning money to pay for his kids ?

I guess the spousal maintenance from Katie ran out ?!

If anything, I reckon the advert puts people off going to Iceland.

lilliebobs2011 · 10/09/2014 19:51

as if anyone would believe he's really ever shopped in iceland

notagainffffffffs · 10/09/2014 19:52

Pretty sure OP is Katie Price Grin

MrsVamos · 10/09/2014 19:58

I bet he doesn't shop in Iceland.

He'd clash. Grin

ScrambledeggLDCcakeBOAK · 10/09/2014 20:00

No actual opinion on P.A but that advert can F$CK off

AnyoneForTARDIS · 10/09/2014 21:28

no im not KP! difficult to not watch when ad is in your face all the time.

I don't exactly hate the guy, but hes one of those people who you cant get away from on tv! even switched off! Grin.

My local Iceland is closed at the moment due a fire.

Co-incidence?

My most hated ad at the moment is the one for Trivago (I think) with the hipster topd-knot-and-beard bloke and his gf in the hotel - the way they lean in the doorway together while brushing their teeth - oh, fuck off, the pair of you!

Whiskwarrior · 10/09/2014 21:31

And Arabella - youre...fun, aren't you? You know this thread isn't about a serious problem, don't you?

AnyoneForTARDIS · 10/09/2014 21:35

Whisk Grin.

oh and the ''the more I see you....'' ad!

OP posts:
MrsVamos · 10/09/2014 21:36

Perhaps Arabella is Emily ?

Chippednailvarnish · 10/09/2014 21:38

I've never recovered from his comments about the size of his manhood.

Google "PA sky remote".

There's a classic thread about him on MN...

MrsVamos · 10/09/2014 21:38

The adverts that get me the most are ones with pop songs that you then have to sit all the way through, because you can't remember what the advert is actually for.

Ruins the point of ads, really. Smile

amothersplaceisinthewrong · 10/09/2014 21:38

OF course OP is NOT KP. Everyone knows KP can't read or write, she can barely talk.

But she probably goes to Iceland along with Kerry.

Icelollycraving · 10/09/2014 21:40

Actually sniggering at that mrsvamos :o

Whiskwarrior · 10/09/2014 21:40

Everyone knows KP can't read or write, she can barely talk.

Shock But all the books she's 'written'! I mean, she must have written them because she does appearances where she finger paints signs them.

GiveTwoSheets · 10/09/2014 21:42

Yes Iceland advert gives me the rage and when he's sitting on the bus I cant help but picture Jay shouting bus wanker!

Chippednailvarnish · 10/09/2014 21:43

Finger paints Grin

KnackeredMuchly · 10/09/2014 21:44

chippednailvarnish Gah! I really should have known better yack yack yack!

Icelolly Grin

I don't really think she is. I don't reckon PA would let her post here, even he must know that mn has an 'icy' at best feel for him.
