It was acceptable in the noughties. Anything with a pulse in front of a bank manager got more credit than they needed.

Is that not why they had to flee Ireland with their tale between their legs, have they not learnt anything?:)

Probably just to get people in the door, reject them for whatever and fob off some other shít on them that they dont need.

The Halifax ad with Topcat is wrong on so many levels.
It's about a talking cat being approved immediately (despite not having a job or security) for a mortgage for a €10.99 bin from Woodies(wonder what the repayments are for that probably €11.99 per month for 20 years) whilst another cat plays a violin. Meanwhile outside the local English copper with a New York accent twirls his baton around waiting for the RSPCA to report him.
Still it's better than listening to their employees sing shoite versions of 80's song.

The former brookside actress in that same ad has something foxy about her still

Halifax will never make an ad as good as this one...

I love that one. The Dad gets his son a bike for his birthday and goes inside and is like happy birthday and points outside. Then the kid hops in the car and drives away, happy as hell

I dont suppose the questions about has he passed his test and is he insured to drive the car has even been challenged?

Love how you're meant to sympathise with beardy hipster guy. Rachel and Steve (well maybe not Steve) would be great craic. I like their "hope ya like Heavy Metal" joke.

Could be worse, could have got a neighbour who said "hope ya like smell of dead corpses? - we kill next door neighbours and store them in outside drains ..."

I hate that MacDonald's ad, with guy going on about summer and how "people are showing their hotdog legs and doing the bee dance". It's is just try-hard and cringeworthy.

It probably has something about warranty at the end so it's all g

dont like these bloody adverts where they use the same bit of tune - tonight I see an advert for Danone yoghurt with the tune "express yourself" - last month DFS where using the same bit of musac on their Sofa ads - talk about confusing!

I've yet to see it, is it related to that ad on Bus Eireann's site of the Honey Monster's red cousin carrying a little girl?

The background music reminds me of the music in the Johnnies got you covered ad. Strange but true.

It is indeed.

Wife is watching big brother again, those sponsor ad's at the beginning and end of every ad break (boohoo) with that awful song in the background (beh, beh, beh, beh, beh, beh beh bah) with the annoying geebags modeling the clothes (in some sort of supposedly energetic and kinetic fashion, no pun intended) melt my brain almost as much as the childish ar5eholes on the program itself.

The Coors Light ad with Van Damme explaining how cold it is.

Put on a fecking jacket instead of your sleeveless vest if you are so cold.

Same actress was in a drama with James Nesbitt called the Secret recently where she played the murdered wife (Leslie Howell) of Nesbitts character Colin Howell. Worth a look but very tragic story. Lives wasted for nothing.

Half saw this ridiculous ad earlier,think it was for some mobile provider.A woman holding up a pair of knickers for what feels like ages and making stupid annoying faces.WTF is that about
