To get the rage with some TV adverts

[Monty27]

Flash aaahhaa with the man and labradoodle dog or whatever it is
And AA with the toddler girl rocking it in the back of the car
I expect a lot of people love them.
Anyone else?

Any spitting in the sink blood adverts. Turns my stomach, how come they don’t spit blue blood? I think that would make it better!

I liked the original Flash one with the dog, where he is wondering where all the mud has gone.
By and large I turn the sound off. It makes you realise how much programme time is given over to adverts on some channels.
The ones that drove me to the mute button are the Tena lady who is pretty and protected (I don't find them pretty at all) and the much hated Oral B. I also dislike the ones where dentists patiently explain about teeth.
I wonder if anyone from the ad agencies is on Mumsnet. We can but hope.

Things have changed because most of the adverts were more soothing. The coffee one was like an ongoing story. Sorry can't remember actors names, Sharon and Anthony? So many ads now are obsessed with bodily functions!

Another (two) votes here for the Tena lady and her "I feel protected AND pretty"! Those pants are NOT pretty they look like blooming pull ups! and the Oral B ones (although my dentist boyfriend reliably informs me Oral B have only been doing toothpaste for around 6 years )

I also hate the Purple Bricks and On The Market ones ( their claims are definitely not true round here! ) the equity release one where they sit round drinking tea, and the senokot song and dance routine - eerrgghh!!!

Perhaps it’s because I’m suffering from food poisoning but that massive bathroom in the Clear Blue advert has me seething with Bathroom Envy (and it’s horribly annoying). All my “favourites” have been mentioned but aaargh! OralB, it’s toothpaste, not toothpist. I’m also worried that my husband will bust the television every time that annoying AA advert with the little girl comes on. Way to ruin a great song, AA.

All bingo and gambling adverts
Most adverts where the item is being plugged by some random celeb has been .
Want to know who in EE thought I know the best person to sell stuff for our company is Kevin Bacon.

I find the toddler in the AA advert quite cute

The ads where they trumpet 100% OF WOMEN NOTICED SHINIER HAIR!!*
Then in small letters *compared to not using conditioner.

Which is like saying 100% OF PEOPLE REPORTED IMPROVED OXYGEN INTAKE!!*

*compared to not breathing at all.

Also those NAUSEATING children and their dreadful teacher, almost wetting herself laughing at the inane “As clean as a mouse called Bovril” statements.

If I were that teacher I’d be frankly deeply ashamed that I hadn’t taught my pupils what does and does not work as an effective comparison to a recently evacuated bumhole.

The Haribo ads where adults speak with children's voices.
Hideous.

There's on here (Ireland) on the radio. Been running for years (feels like centuries):

"It's almost seven o'clock, time for a new kitchen with (whatever the company name is)"

Seriously. I need a new kitchen because its seven a.m.? Right ok then.

Plus i genuinely dont recall the company name, so it's possibly a tad ineffective and just annoying.

Piss pad advert the one where she dons the showgirl outfit is the worst look at me dancing you can't see my piss pad.

The over 50s plan adverts from as little as £5 a month your children can cash in

One on Classic FM for a trip to see the Northern Lights.

Lots of very fake ‘oohs’ and ‘aahs’ then a posho with a mimsy voice going ‘That’s a-MA-zing!’

I’d have pushed the lot of ‘em in a fjord.

If the postcode lottery people turned up at my door I’d be snatching the cheque off then and telling them to fuck of if they think I’m singing.
Can’t stand most perfume adverts either

And ALL The perfume/after shave ads! I have no idea what the Jonny Depp in the desert one is trying to say. Nor the Jennifer Lawrence going swimming in full make up one. Nor the Cate Blanchett one that I caught sight of this morning

The Kristen Stewart one where she has toilet roll around her ihas to be up there as the most annoying advert its is so pretentious

The people singing and cavorting about on the Postcode Lottery ads. lf l win anything on there they can send me a cheque in the post. I have no intention of making a fool of myself on tv.
Oh, god, and all the 'over 50s plan' ones. "l trust them to look after my family." IT'S YOUR MONEY ffs!!! lt's an insurance policy. And who on earth says "guaranteed cash sum"?!
And those fecking meerkats. How much more mileage can they get out of them!? Enough already!
l'm getting the red mist now thinking about it

I can’t stand the McDonalds peely/monopoly ad.

Funny - a ‘piel’ is South african slang for male genitals ...

"My mouth feels stronger!"

How?

I too dislike Oral B woman.

But I also dislike all the Halifax ads, the Wayfair ads, and the ad where a woman loses her card then finds it again.

Ads where the head of the company does the talking are always odd. Dyson, for instance. I can't put my finger on why but James Dyson gives me the creeps.

I forgot, smug Kayak woman is annoying too :)

the only one I dont use the mute button for was the crumpet and muppets one at christmas, I like that one.

That coffee ad where he says "if you can't remember my name, please sit down" - how come they're there if they can't remember who he is? Who invited them? Why did they go?
Some of these ad agency people really do get paid for nothing.

Jenny Eclair with her "bothersome vagina" ad.

"The last thing any woman needs, during or after the menopause, is a bothersome vagina."

No Jenny, the last thing any woman needs is a bothersome vagina. Menopause or not.

Couldn't tell you what brand she's actually advertising though

Lorraine kelly with her "what if I want to be fancy" shurrup Lorraine

@SneakyGremlins re the ad with "dramatisation" for the tiny woman dodging the giant chocolate... my MIL once pointed at the photo on product packaging and complained that she couldn't have it as she didn't "have a dish like that".

I shit you not.

I thought OMG YOU are the kind of person who forced SERVING SUGGESTION on everything!!

Hating all the above mentioned ads, but I also loathe all online bingo (and gambling) ads on TV as they portray it as being a very sociable activity, like you're really in a field or barn with bunting festooned everywhere with a hundred thousand new friends, instead of sitting alone at home on your sofa.

And every payday loans advert where they can stop time but only use that amazing ability to check whether payday loans are on the internet. Idiots.

The coffee one was like an ongoing story. Sorry can't remember actors names, Sharon and Anthony?

The gold blend ads? With Anthony Head?

If you want a laugh go on youtube and watch Taffe316 reviewing British ads (called something like an American reviews British commercials).
