Intrusive and distracting advert

I think it's because it moves, but the advert for roast potatoes keeps looming at me like a tray of scrotums (scrota?) with a fungal infection.

How long may we expect this delight to continue, and is there any hope it will be retired before Sunday lunch?

Hi OP

Are you able to share a screenshot with us, and also let us know what device and browser you're using?

Hi @Lilymumsnet, thanks! I'm on an ancient iPad using Safari. This is the advert- but it LOOMS onto the page, and moves.

the ikea ads are even worse. There are far more than usual on the site and I keep accidentally clicking them. Visually they are so distracting they compromise the ease of viewing the website.

They make me less likely to shop with said brands and more likely to click off Mumsnet too.

Here’s my screen shot.

Total overkill.
