Worst and Best adverts

[carolyorkie2010]

Just wondered which adverts on TV at the moment you like and dislike.

Worst one for me is the Mercedes-Benz adverts with the chickens - I just don't get it!

Favourite is still the Maltesers one with the women skipping

[saasher2012]

Love the Spec savers advert with the old Shepherd hand shearing the sheep, ( well I would wouldn't i .)

[queenelsa83]

OMG yes! That one is truly epic! 😄

[saasher2012]

Sad to say I think it reminds me of me! lol.

[queenelsa83]

I also really like the one with the lumberjack taking down all the telephone poles! LOL! 😛

I haven't seen that one on TV for ages now, but I still remember it 🙂

That Bear on the Muller advert makes me cringe,,he looks like hes got a really BAD WIG ON !!!!!!!!. And that silly shuffle he does. It reminds me of someone i dont like aswell so thats probably why i hate it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. LOOOOOl, LOOOOOOl. I cannnnnt stop laugggggggghin NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

I like the Galaxy advert when the pretty woman gets into the car and puts the bus drivers hat on the man in the car. Wish that would happen to me ,,,,get whisked off by a HUNK??????. Dream on ROSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. LOOOOOOL.

I don't usually take much notice of the ads and tend to 'switch' channels when they come on but when I saw the Merc chicken ad I laughed out loud,,. It's hilarious lol

The one I dislike the most is the Viking Cruises one which is used at the start, all breaks in between and the end of a drama.

I'd like to sink the bloomin' ship!

LOL, I think you need to get a grip if you're upset by an ST ad....

Ah yes! The Blue River song/Audrey Hepburn Galaxy chocolate advert! It sure is a lovely one indeed 🙂

[cee-dee]

Did you mean Moon River?

[queenelsa83]

Erm, yes, yes I did! LOL! My bad! Thanks for correcting me there! 😄

I think my all-time favourite is the Specsavers sheepshearing one -  we know it so well now, yet it still makes us smile!  I also like their other one with the little boy and his remote-control car.

Worst are the "mucus" ones.  And I am fed up with "clinically proven".

Lol at the vile 'mucus' word

Did you know that Slade's lead singer Noddy Holder does the voiceover? 

When the ad comes on, I always see him in his silver platform boots and fried red hair

"Cum on feel the noize!"

Not any particular advert but I agree with "clinically proven". And "upto" . And the "most people found...." (74% of 23 people asked).

Oh and what ever happened to twice? I can't stand "two times as many" !

[wskneil]

And while I'm ranting... the daytime Calgon adverts with Marin Lewis. Combine most of my dislikes in one series of adverts (celbrity endorsement, "scientifically proven", "upto"  "all real people in this advert are played by actors" etc)

[queenelsa83]

OMG...CILLIT BANG...BARRY SCOTT...SOMEBODY JUST SHOOT THE GUY ALREADAY!!! 😛

[rose2008-2008]

I like the new Jaffa Cake advert with the Bushbaby thing comes out of the box!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL,,, . Its very SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

[queenelsa83]

I haven't seen that one yet 🙂 Will definitely have to look out for it now! 😄

[rose2008-2008]

You will love it Kawaiikimmy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..

[queenelsa83]

Another worst advert (or should I say adverts) are any & all of the payday loans/money lending ones that are shown to death throughout the day on various TV channels O.o

[cee-dee]

If you're daft enough to take them up on it, all you have to do then is pay it back plus interest:-

"Amount of credit: £150 for 18 days. Interest: £27.99. Interest rate: 365%pa (fixed).

Transmission fee: £5.50. One total repayment of: £183.49. Representative 5853%"

[queenelsa83]

Exactly! Songs is one of the worst of the lot of them! 😞
