You've all got it all wrong. This is the current king of bullshit.

That's a terrible ad. Who ever thought that using Bonkers in an ad was a good idea? It's awful.

Pretty much any betting site ones. Especially the Ladbrokes one with the old Italian guy screeching. It actually makes my blood boil so much I'm not even going to go and find a link to it :x

Which one is it that has Ray Winstone playing the stereotypical cockney hard man which always reminds me of the BNP?

Yeah that is awful too. Something I really find annoying is when people talk, and between words there is that horrible "lip smacking" sound. That's what twatty Winston does in that ad. Gaaaah!

There are adverts that channels like Dave show, which are sometimes quite funny, but they show the exact same ads during every ad break (of which there are many).

So it goes from the first time you see it - :lol: to :| to :x very quickly.

And a rather serious ad, but very memorable (probably for the wrong reasons):



Another brilliant set of adverts recently are the Direct Line ones:




Couldn't find the one with the banana on YouTube, disappointingly :(

It's the guy's voice. "Wickes..." :x

Thank strawberry float it isn't just me. It is my most hated advert without doubt.

The way he says Wickes makes my skin creep.

He says it in such a pathetic, snivelling, mealy mouthed way "Whicks".

No, it is Wickes. It is a spikey, hard sounding word yet this guy feels the need to mangle the pronunciation and make it a gentle, soft word.

match.com :x Not only is the advert annoying, why the strawberry float would you show someone with the confidence to pull someone at a train station for an online dating site? People are on there because they don't meet girls on platforms.

It's like they are saying off the bat "Your story of how you met will never be as good as this one, you suck"

Not sure what it advertises, but it's some annoying looking banana split doing some really fast rap about a load of bollocks. Like most gooseberry fool adverts I'm assuming it's some kind of price comparison site?

That.

"Wickes, it's got our name on it." 8-)


*Wickes advert starts*
Oh hey, sounds like Timothy Spall.
*something about kitchens*
Ha, yeah, we got out kitchen from you, we're fine for now.
"It's got our name on it. Wickes."
...slogan, company? Not company, slogan?

*every other time Wickes advert starts*
It'sthewrongwayroundit'sthewrongwayroundit'sthewrongwayround. :x


I hate the way the guy says "Wickes" at the end of the adverts. It's creepy!
