Re: What are your best and worse TV ads?

I hate with an absolute passion the recent "what" "is" "buzz" advert using the gay guy with a lisp.

I cant even bring myself to post a link,,,,,,,, Grrrrrrrrrrrrr

Is it just me or does it rub anyone else up the wrong way.

Re: What are your best and worse TV ads?

My favourite ad of all time has to be the old Woolworths Christmas ad from around 1981, 'Have a cracking Christmas at Woolworths, a cracker of a Christmas shopping spree...' ah the memories.
Worst? GO COMPARE...AAAGGGHHH!!!!

Re: What are your best and worse TV ads?

Despise that Halifax ISA advert with the vanilla ice tune. Makes me hope that Halifax are bought out by some other bank just to stop them from making stupid and annoying adverts.

Please don't tell me it's on tv, thought it was just on the radio. Thanks for the heads up!

Are you volunteering to spark her then?
