Asteroid doesn't seem to be one of the options.

Yes my wife felt somewhat short changed that there wasn't a box for 'other' ideas.

To be honest her idea made my blood run cold especially as she is pregnant and supposed to be full of baby loviness.

Some of the comments are quite good:

"Adam gets a fault on his phone line that BT tell him will require an engineer to fix. The fault is within his property and the dirty smelly BT engineer arrives and spends less than 10 minutes on the fault then tells him he won't be charged for it. Two months later Adam receives a bill that takes £125 out of his bank account for the engineer visit and sees this for the extortionate price that it is. He calls BT to complain but is faced with a member of staff who can barely speak English and doesn't understand what he is saying. He hangs up after getting nowhere and tries again with the same outcome. Adam then emails BT and tells them to stick their services where the sun don't shine and decides to transfer to Virgin Media. With Virgin Media he realises that he has been being totally ripped off by BT as he now gets up to 50mb broadband, a whole load of premium channels and on demand content and all his calls for the same price he was paying BT for receiving less services. Adam is now happy and calls Jane advising her to switch to Virgin Media for a better service."

Wasn't all this done years ago with that coffee ad couple?

(Apart from the voting online shit).

TJ has posted up

The past few years has just been a very long, albeit highly detailed, dream. Both Jane and Adam wake up having no clue that the other person exists .... until Adam ploughs into the back of Jane's brand new black Porsche 911 Turbo S4. Adam is riding a bike, and wearing pig-ugly helmet -- for the benefit of safety freaks. IMO

Why would anyone get this involved in fiction that promotes a service?
Hello Everyone

I really like the add and as I am quite old fashioned and romantic I think there should be a funny stag night and a hen night where Jane gets tipsy and lets her hair down - I personally am looking forward to a wedding (with hitches attached) and then a glorious honeymoon where lots of phone calls are made home. Am sure whatever happens to them it will keep us on the edge of our seats.

My vote goes towards one of his dopey stag night mates sodomizing him with his laptop after he makes a smug comment regarding broadband connections, of which BT is somewhat ironically a very poor provider.

Adam and Jane change to the new BT browser and find it's as rubbish as we're finding it. Constant losses of connection. Driven by the resulting frustration; Adam throws his laptop through the window and Jane batters the home-hub before deep-frying it with a spare Mars bar.

My idea:-
Jane gets hammerd on hen night, has a threesome with a pair of builders and Adam gets sent an Mpeg of the night in question on his superfast BT broadband nine months later a baby comes out with chinese eyes and afro.

Wife's idea classified under several acts.

How do I vote for that option?

I have actually gone through the trauma of registering, simply to say this.... GET THESE ADVERTS OFF MY TELLY!!! I really do not have any empathy towards these characters, the adverts tell me nothing about the products available and I will not be convinced or inclined to join BT because of them. SACK YOUR HEAD OF MARKETING AND GET A DECENT CAMPAIGN RUNNING PLUS FURTHER INVESTMENT IN YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICES. Apologies for shouting, but these commercials make me cringe.

Remember the ad with his mates and running and no internet come back to mine etc?

Well that Black' gentleman is the Father...

Now vote should the Baby be born:

A) Black and explain herself as single Mums get discounted calls.

B) White and keep it hush -its good to talk but not all the time.

C) Run off with the Black Gentleman and show that long distance calls to old boyfriend can be cheaper with BT.

😯

From the suggestions on the website:

Jane is rubbing her stomach and showing signs of discomfort. I think she is about to let rip an enormous fart and we will then see the smile return to her face. I do like a happy ending.

Oh my sides.

How about Jane has stomach cancer and needs treatment and BT use this to highlight the plight of people who are ill or terminally ill and perhaps they could consider donating some of their 1.6 billion of profits to a cancer charity in UK! Unfortunately not everything in life is as rosy as these ads make out! Stepchildren and ex husbands all happy with the new split family arrangements!

Has there been a drop in traffic at STW as you lot all go and post on the BT site?

an angry mob of Inuit seal clubbers beat adam, (or whoever he is) to death, then train Jane.

then Lee Harvey Oswald comes back from the dead and snipers Jane.

I hate those ads. Guttless rose tinted BS advertising tripe.

I find the very idea that I should even consider caring what happens in the next television advertisement produced by my broadband provider frankly offensive to my intelligence.

I there an option for 'I get to sleep with Jane'. I think she's lovely, and there's nuddy pictures of her on the interweb (er, I've heard, on, er, Radio 4, honest)

Jane runs off with Cheetah the chimp.

And they have little half chimpies. They call them derek and metusula. However, Derek is able to speak, but the only word he can say is "foreskin", and he goes on to have escapades involving shouting "foreskin" a lot. So much so that he gets his own T4 show called "foreskins" about his teenage years.

Methusula dies in a freak trike accident whilst auditioning for a popular tea commercial.

well i couldnt be arsed to vote but i did join the network so i could leave this message

[i]I know what should happen......

after moving house and transfering their BT account to their new address they cant get online, thankfully the helpdesk is only a phonecall away, so we should see Adam on hold for about ten minutes before speaking to someone who then transfers him to another queue, where he sits on hold for another ten minutes before being asked to describe his modem and what lights are on it so the support person can do a test and phone back in a few hours. When they dont phone back Adam can call up again to repeat the above process from the beginning.

When he sees Jane in the evening he will have a good rant about it but it'll be OK because BT have said they will fix it.

This is then repeated every other day for THREE WEEKS, going round in circles, each evening Adam and Jane are slightly angrier with each other because one or the other has spent half an hour on hold to a call centre.

BT will have realised that there is a problem with their exchange and will fix something so they now have a dial tone but this time the connection error says 'remote computer does not respond', never the less BT will think its fixed and every time Adam or Jane or rings up the helpdesk person will be surprised that tehre is still a problem.

Meanwhile Jane will email BT with the same problem, because she feels guilty that her bloke spends half his day on the phone, but despite using the same customer number that will proceed to launch a parelel inquiry that will result with an email from BT saying that the line is fine and that the problem is with their version of internet explorer and they should use the the bt help programme that came with the instalation disk- even though this fires up every time a connection fails and gets caught in its own endless loop of not working.

Jane will forward this email to Adam who will hit the roof as he uninstalled explorer as they use Firefox anyway.

When the helpdesk rings back he will ask them about the email and they will have no knwoledge of what hes talking about. They will then offer to send out an engineer who can only visit Monday to Friday in the wonderfully vague timeslots of eithe 8am-1pm or 1-6pm, because both Adam and Jane are busy and have a family one of them will be forced to take time off work, which will result in an argument as both are stressed with the move and their forthcoming baby.

I think this would be the best outcome for the advert because its realistic, I knwo this because this is exactly what my wife and I have been doing for the last 3 weeks feeling my life slowly drip away as im transfered from the helpdesk, to bt whole sale, to the engineering department and back to BT wholesale again.

That thing about a car crash with flaming ostrich catherine wheels and penguins and brooms. Definitely deserves to be turned into a screenplay of some kind.

As I suggested the other day on here

Want to see him pimping her out on the game after she gets hooked on smack. Rival crew then take over and sort him right out to keep her in line

My nephew was in a band with the guy who plays the teenage son and they filmed them to use in an advert but i dont think it aired which i was pleased about, don't want my family having any connection with this debacle of marketing.

Love it!

Yup, I'd vote for her getting in the nud in some form or another. Obviously one shouldn't, but secretly you would.

If anyone on this thread has posted a suggestion on the BT site perhaps they should now post a link back to this thread on STW.

i like this one

The daughter expects to go and live with the dad but he is so disappointed with her for shopping her murderous mother that he disowns her and she has to live on her own. In order to make a living she leaves school and gets a job in a BT call centre where, despite being nine years old and not having even completed her primary school education, she is by far the most competent employee.

The end.
