Just reading a thread from a lady who hates a particular Specsavers ad' but it's the G-tech Air Ram one for me. It drives me mad. Horrible 'shouty man'. I want to scream when it comes on, and on, and on.... at least 4 times on Lorraine (which I love) and again on This Morning.... and it goes on FOREVER. Not that I watch TV all day! Really!

I don't hate it but the ad for Toni and Guy hair products which shows a woman putting her hair up and twisting it through her fingers is terrible - her hair looks a mess, dry and brittle, if that is what their products do I won't be buying them!

Booking.com. I really dislike it.

Money supermarket GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

I agree, Moneysupermarket is bordering on obscene in my opinion.

G tech Ram has overstayed its welcome.

I do not really like any but I do not sit and watch them- I am making coffee or whatever.

I did like the Harvey ad(Harvey the Blak/white coated dog) and his best friend ( soft toy that owner was going to bin!) He is just the sort of dog I would like, he is also Sykes in the Midsomers series.?

I call it the Harvey ad, I have no idea what the actual ad is for!

I like that one too rosesarered, love that little dog. Also love the Dogs Trust adverts. Nobody seems to hate the Gtech one as much as me!

I hate all of them, far too impatient to watch ads!

I loved the Harvey ad too think it was advertising advertising if you understand, some agency I think.
Hate the money supermarket one and the Alberto balsam one where the music keeps starting and stopping. Sykes is great in Midsomer, watch it just to see him.

Also hate money supermarket 'ad, and I hated the 'ad where a girl in a cardigan and thick socks ate a chocolate with a silly smirk on her face (can't remember name of product).
I really like the 'ads with a small black and white terrier, one was where his soft toy had been thrown away - the dog has such an expressive face! Actually I like any 'ad with a dog in but it won't make me buy the product even if I remember what it is!

Hate Money Supermarket, Go Compare, Gladstone Brooks (I want to punch that man shock)

I absolutely love this one from Lloyds Bank

Hate Go compare, and I think the Money Supermarket are really weird. Rather unpleasant really.

I do think Galaxy chocolate could afford a new one....c ed up with Audrey Hepburn now. I do like the naughty Maltesers ads.

I hate them all!! I get really fed up of the interuptions during programs ?

Badenkate Tue 21-Jun-16 12:47:41

Some of them have some great music but I've no idea what they're advertising!

I agree that Money Supermarket one is AWFUL. Love the Maltesers one where she kicks her boyfriend out, some of them are quite entertaining. Also can't stand the Lenny Henry ones for Premier Inn with Katie Melua singing 'Wonderful world so mournfully....
