Pampers advert with the massively annoying "Lets dance" music and the dopey dancing babies. Some of those babies look like they have had a rough night, little dancing feckers!!!

Also this version has equally annoying American voice over. Arggghh!

I know it's been mentioned, probably many times, but that KBC ad with the wan walking along the street 'I worry about...I have an all about me lifestyle', my foot is threatening the tv screen, every time she appears! :mad:

NO! You're just paying one of them using a more expensive method you deluded idiot

Its both a comically stupid statement and at the same time really slimey and patronizing.

Was wondering how long it would be until that particular ad was mentioned here. If you needed any more reason to despise her, you might also notice she's sipping a takeaway coffee as she prances away down the street (That you know well would be a starbucks cup if they could get away with it)

I knew this would be posted on here "I worry about what I'm going to wear, I worry if my boyfriend still likes me" **** off you annoying Taylor Swift clone.

Sorry that ad's been driving me mental for weeks and I needed to vent.

Here's the ad for the Million Euro Challenge. How does it compare to the game show itself?

That ad has been bugging me for a while.

Million Euro Challenge? Is this a competition?

I may have these wrong, and hopefully somebody will correct me, as I may not be getting something.

Step 1. Flick Scratch Card (I presume you Buy and scratch).
Step 2. Take Red Carpet into building with Paparazzi present and photographing you.
Step 3. Drive your fast car somewhere, anywhere.
Step 4. Take Hot Air Balloon up to Gold Safe. Open and use funds to power Private Yacht to get to your beach shack, possibly on an Island
Step 5. Take (private?) Jet over to Giant Piano and record player with Gramophone Speakers (Possibly to a Concert, or you are now a musician).
Step 6. Go to your Gold Castle.

Winner: Break the pyramid titled "The 6 steps to a Million" and you will now have completed the Million Euro Challenge and have your €1,000,000 blow out by a fan on to you and everything around you.

I find myself humming that song, which annoys me no end. That ad is very visually appealing though - I sort of find it hypnotic.

In reality:

Step 1: You post a scratchcard with 3 stars on it.
Step 2: Nicky Byrne draws that scratchcard.
Step 3: You bring along a friend or family member.
Step 4: The two of you play a code-guessing game.
Step 5: The two of you play some sort of hi-lo game.
Step 6: The two of you play a game involving a pyramid with drawers in it.

Six steps to... an amount far, FAR less than €1,000,000, which the two of you have to share equally. Unless, of course, the two of you are incredibly lucky. :rolleyes:

Well, I suppose the ad is better than the show, and also better than most other National Lottery ads...

"Hey.. What's your name?"
"Egg? That's a Beautiful name."

Has to be the sh*ttest advert, and definitely the one most likely to trigger a foot attack on the screen.

Every thing about it is sh*t. :mad:

While some users thoughts on this are somewhat scrambled, I think it's hard to beat it.

Any ad that does this always stinks of snake oil and bull****. When they say their snack bar "May help with weight loss" I wish they were required to finish the sentence with "for all we know". I think Charlie Brooker had a thing about this in advertising. You could say "jumping up and down may help knock the world off its axis" or "punching the wall may help knock it down" but that doesn't mean either method is effective. Hence beauty products so often make claims about how their cream "helps fight aging"

...for all we know.
