Yet another ridiculous advert!

The most cringeworthy at the moment has to be the “even a VIP has to VIPoo”! It’s appalling.

Katek.....yes that one really makes me squirm.

That dreadful advert chanting "are you gonna Bingo", absolutely awful.

Is it the Purple Bricks ad where various folk end up putting their faces in cream cakes. I cannot stand it- I agree, the tenor with the cork screw mustache gets on my nerves.

Who allowed that ghastly VI POO one to leave the factory? I would never dream of buying it.

Have you seen how much this stuff is its unbelievable !!

I get really annoyed at the Lloyds Bank ad because a lot of riders use one of our favourite beaches. And I just KNOW some kid will think it’s OK to run up to horses waving their arms.

The bloody meerkats!!
We saw some meerkats not long ago at a wildlife park - they are so lovely and I think the advert gives them a bad press!

I haven't seen the Anna Chancellor/Nigel Havers advert, must look out for it. It sounds like a classic.

I used to like the ones with Joan Collins and Leonard Rossiter:

etc!

sodapop I was about to say the tenalady advert and I noticed your post. The advert is advertising a discreet product in a totally indiscreet way. What is wrong with popping a free sample through the letterbox anyway as they used to do? And dont get me started on the toilet poo spray!

annep, I too loathe all the 'in your face' way discrete products are advertised. Its true that in the past too much secrecy and embarrassment led to some people having a hard time. Years ago at school, if a girl was caught short at a certain time of the month she would have to creep to the toilets and dissolve into floods of tears and probably be traumatised for years....but I feel the pendulum has swung too far....a little decorum with certain bodily functions would not go amiss.

And don’t start me on the Sun Life Over 50 ad with June in her slippers and the friendly neighbour with too many parsnips! He also lurks in his conservatory with powerful binoculars........hmmm.

I don't like ads for gambling on-line. People can get sucked in and it can be dangerous. Yes, I know betting shops exist but you have to go out of your way to get there and it isn't quite so constant. With a computer, you could bet on things 24 hours a day.

The one that puzzles me at the moment is where there are lots of paper plane letters flying between people at home, at work, on holiday etc. The letter flies in, someone catches it, is really pleased to have got a letter.

It’s an advert for BT
