Go on then Shibboleth, what's the advert?
Posted 2 years ago # -
annoying as they are, the we buy any car, and go compare ads do stick in your head. If i was selling a car for cash, or looking for insurance right now they'd be the first sites i would try despite me hating the ads, so i guess from an advertisers point of view they have worked.

"Go on then Shibboleth, what's the advert?"
You'd only see it if you're in the Granada region, let's just say it's for a coastal holiday destination.
I'm seen running along a beach, in great pain because I'd dislocated my shoulder and separated my AC joint the night before in Gisburn Forest!
The director wanted me to spin a little girl round by her arms! No chance of that, so my on-screen wife had to do that bit. Good fun though, and great to see how much work goes into such a short piece.

Freeview won't be getting it anytime soon
Bugger. Oh well I'll just keep using the Wii iPlayer channel instead

Ooh I'll look out for you Shibboleth. Just remembered I don't watch ITV.
I love the new trailer for the BBC - 2010 Olympic winter games, classy.

Go and Compare
that f*cking meerkat one. Simple...squeak does not advertising brilliance make.and
anything which tries to convince birds that they should have a nice yoghurt, rather than going for a crap.

Mute ads and do pressups while they are on - used to work for me - till I got lazy and now I just mute all ads.
thats a great idea. lets see if it works...
what about envirofone? Want cash for your old mobile? Just pop it in the post and we'll send you up to £150.
Yeah if I go buy an iPhone for £300, stick it straight in an envelope and post it, you might give me £150. Otherwise we're talking enough for a pint at best, right?

depends how much a pint costs down your local. I get fairly bogstandard Nokias and they usually send me in the region of £50 back each time.

Any advert that's clearly been filmed abroad and then re-dubbed with English language or accents. The one for Halls cold sweets (on an aeroplane) is particularly annoying.

I got 40 quid for a really knackered Nokia that a tennant left behind down the back of the sofa... What on earth do they do with them???

Go compare.
Why and what is he cheating when he exposes his socks? I don't get that.
Plus there is a very annoying extra in that ad...look at me da de daaa look at me da da daaa look at me look at me look at me da de daaaaPosted 2 years ago # -

But the really really really hot brunette in that advert more than makes up for the annoying extra...
Posted 2 years ago # -
I'll never know. You know when someone says don't look into the light but you do, well that's what that extra is like.... a bright beaming turd.

I mean the one with the speaking part that asks the teacher if he's cheating... Mmmmm.

The kids have picked up my disdain for adverts and refer to Activia yoghurt as "the yoghurt that gives you the craps".
I hate Tena Lady adverts too. "Yippeee!!! I piss myself, but it's ok cos I have Tena Lady!!!"

cripes, i take it all back.
What on earth do they do with them???
Send them to Sudan to be burned in the desert and claim £100 from the government in WEEE credits. Maybe.

Much like that ad with the "ladies who lunch" discussing their bowel movements...
No win no fee ads are shocking...
I was given the wrong sort of ladder
No, you used the wrong sort of ladder. It's your fault you moronic fcktard.

Natwest - totally agree. It's like they're pretending they have nowt to do with RBS and are your friendly bank.
And the one advertising the Ocean Finance TV channel. WTF people walking round with ? marks on their head.

most products of any kind have made up names. At least boswelox has some degree of sense behind it (derived from Boswellia serrata )Posted 2 years ago # -
poster adverts of callmedave.

KFC - wiv tha yoof who used to be interested in eating food but now interested in preparing it. Voice over - "chicken delivered fresh everyday" print at bottom of ad - "Minimum Delivery 3 per week" Sorry which area of the country do they only have three day weeks?
Women's make up/eyelashes etc. Pay attention to the small print again and you'll usually see "images produced with aid of extensions and post production".
HTF are they allowed to get away with it?
Probably cos I'm ranting on here instead of writing to advertising standards.

you've answered your own question. It's the small print on the ads which allows them to get away with it. The KFC one originally didn't have that text on it - it was introduced after complaints.Posted 2 years ago #
