The one that's annoying me at the moment is the McDonalds one where the Mum and Dad and little girl are in Maccy D's, and the Mum lobs little girls's toy rabbit on the floor so that Dad bends down to retrieve it (Mum then nicks his chicken whatever it is.)

I really hate it when she says "help me out here Rob, just trying to be a parent."

It makes me want to slap her in the face with her Big Mac.

My long standing advert that I hate is still being screened, quite an old one, where the little boy is on the toilet, and the touch 'n' fresh has run out and he yells for his Mum. Why the advertisers feel that we need to see this kid sitting on the carsey, I don't know.

sanex with the writhing bodies
mobile phone ad with diamond day song
the one where the woman can't get her stains out and slams the washing machine door( maybe for vanish or some oi action thing)

hana · 06/03/2007 12:21

has to be that awful sheila's wheels insurance thingy

bigknickersbigknockers · 06/03/2007 12:34

All the 'If there's pain, there's blame so there's a claim adverts.
First Plus.. Carol Vorderman telling people in debt to get into more debt by consolidating all their monthly payments into one manageable payment, she should know better.
Cheese strings ..Gotta dance, bet that kid gets the piss taken out of him.
Park christmas hampers, is anyone ever going to trust a christmas savings scheme after the Farepak rip off?

ShowOfHands · 06/03/2007 12:35

Ooh some good ones on here, my bp is rising as I read.

I want somebody to tell me why on the old Picture loan ad the dozy mare is recording her equally dozy husband with a camcorder while he rings up and makes banal witticisms about football. Firstly, sell the bloomin' camcorder, you clearly have no practical use for it and you're in debt. And secondly, on that advert and the new one with miss 'scooootar', why do they not know how much they need to borrow? Those fake whispers of '£25,000?' to gormless partners, they need to be hit with bricks!

And if I ever meet Nadine Baggott, Oversexed M&S voiceover woman or Barry Scott in a room without witnesses...

That AA ad drives me mad

The song (you just call, out my name) IS MISSING A BEAT on each line and it drives the musical order part of my brain MAD

danceswithnewboots · 06/03/2007 12:38

The mother/daughter/grandmother - diamond...diamond....DIAMOND ...oh pass me a bucket

Sheilas wheels

Alli kelli shoes

hollyandalice · 06/03/2007 12:43

Oh my god foxinsocks, I thought I was the only person who thought that about that stupid advert!! I've tried to explain to other people why it is so annoying, but just get generally blank looks! I hate it, it drives me bonkers!

Also the injurylawyers4u ad where the girl does boxing. She is so creepy. During the whole advert she only blinks once, seriously disturbs me!!

ellceeell · 06/03/2007 13:06

The one where a man is carrying stuff for a woman and closes the car door with his foot - so she deliberately crashes his model aeroplane. dd2 asked me why the woman was nasty to the man and the answer that this is what sells cars didn't satisfy her.

newgirl · 06/03/2007 14:43

the nadine baggot one! so funny! she could say 'this cream could contain lard and id recommend it if paid enough'

talking supermarket trolleys

iceland adverts with daft lot all partying in animal costumes

petit filous advert with anorexic looking blonde girl eating miniscule yogurt so boys will fancy her

the car one with 'what when why how' who gives a s###

amyjade · 06/03/2007 15:15

The double glazing advert is it 'Safestyle windows' with the creepy bloke with long hair and the woman who looks like a tart.

rorytiger · 06/03/2007 15:24

anything that ends 'Because you're worth it' drives me mad. Any cleanser, make-up type ones with those stupid pentopeptid-thingymajigs arrggggggghhhh

Itsthawooluff · 06/03/2007 15:39

I'm with Molesworth on the KFC one. Raises my blood pressure everytime I see it. Perhaps when "Mum" does have a night off,it's because (heaven forfend) "Dad" might organise the food, or even the older brother - but no, its the Wee Poppet all dressed up in Mummy's big shoes.

I seriously hope "mum" is going off for the night to a conscious raising, bra burning, wimmins group and comes back with a crew cut, wearing camoflage (sp) and harbouring a desire to take up being a car mechanic, before running off with a woman called Andy.

McDreamy · 06/03/2007 15:41

When you ain't got 'em you do miss 'em!!! We don't get any adverts on BFBS and I really enjoyed watching the new ones on a recent visit to the UK - how sad is that!!!!!!

franke · 06/03/2007 15:51

The one with the woman with a newborn and all her ghastly friends turn up and one of them wants to use the toilet. Then they're sniffing and sneering because baby clearly needs changing. Awful awful awful.

becklespeckle · 06/03/2007 16:02

all of the above!

(especially the one with the boy on the loo - why does he have crayons and paper in the loo? did he wash his hands before he posted the pic under the door? why did he then get back on the loo? stupid ad.)

yaddayah · 06/03/2007 16:12

The butlins one .. "kids like to stay up late".. feck off back to bed you weirdo child

mrsmalumbas · 06/03/2007 16:24

Oh it absolutely has to be the one for stool softeners. I mean who turns up for a girly lunch with their friends and announces that they tried to do a poo but it was a bit hard?!

yaddayah · 06/03/2007 16:25

you mean thats not normal ??

bigknickersbigknockers · 06/03/2007 18:54

The one where the bloke says to his worried looking freaky wife "we've got more money going out than we've got coming in... thats because you have bloody over spent you TOSSER

ledodgyDave · 06/03/2007 18:55

Picture loans "Tom (or whatever he's called) Dad's found your scooter.."

Mossie · 06/03/2007 19:01

Any pseudo-scientific bull sh*t made up to sell cosmetics. Nanopeptidehorlickstuffifier. Or whatever it's called. And then they say, ninety percent of women say they thought they looked younger. And you look at the bottom and they only tested it on 50 women anyway.

And ffs, if you've agreed to go on the survey you're probably already a bit of a fan of the stuff in the first place. So when you're pumped full of free samples of some ultra-expensive moisturiser, and then at the end of it, asked if you think you look younger, what are you going to say? "No I feel like I look like an old trout?"

Annnd relax!

Belgianchocolatesmama · 06/03/2007 20:01

I hate all double glazing adverts. The Cilit bang ones too. Why does he have to shout??
All care insurance and debt clearance ones. Oh yes, we're here to save you from debt, we're so charitable, we're not here to make money. Oh no, we don't want your money . All these companies just want to take advantage of people with no money!

SueBaroo · 06/03/2007 21:05

The loan one that has the husband phoning the company up, and his wife is 'listening in', only she's on the other piggin side of his head to where the phone is.

Then she screws up her face and starts having an apparent orgasm, and I'm wondering if he actually phoned the loan company or a sexline.

crispyduck · 06/03/2007 22:22

ledodgydave- and the shall we borrow 25 thousand is so cheesy!

Coolmama · 06/03/2007 22:28

"borrow 25 000" one -
"mastication for the nation" - god, even typing that makes me want to vomit!!!!!!!!!
"who,where,why" car advert - just fuck off, why don't you.
