Its a bit psychotic/disturbing/bi-polar with all the demonic voices going on in her head :eek:

Presumably it's been mentioned before but the 'Go Compare' ads have to be on this list, the two latest with Greg Wallace driving a cab & the posh twats on horses certainly aren't 'fantastic'!

Yee-hah! WHIP CRACK Everyone loves Fred's Homepride All American Sticky sauce.

NO, NO WE DON'T!

Definitely an advert I despise.

The Canesten ad. I was tucking in to my dinner this evening when the woman on the ad starts on about intimate area problems. Horrible.

How desperate are these actors and actresses that they appear in ads like this and especially ones for constipation?
Like why would you?

Them kids in the Carrolls Ham advert are aged about 8 - why have they been caught playing with scissors? - neglect? - should i call social services?

"Phlegm Boy"

You know who I'm talking about
This chap who seems to be doing the voiceover for about 50% of Irish ads of late - mobile phone thing, the Lottery, etc

His voice gets on my fecking nerves, sounds like a 15 year old with a chest cold.

Because they are actors/actresses and cant get the dole?

Because they are paying jobs and getting into acting can be bank breaking?
Casting agents will also not give a ****e what the ad was for, just good exposure for the next possible role

That Orangina ad, the one set in the coliseum. The potential victim makes a glugging noise and the emperor spares him. And then the coliseum turns into a giant swimming pool. Two words, and the second one is "off"!

Instantly mute/change the channel when that comes on.

There's nothing particularly wrong with the ad itself, it's just her voice; she sounds like a character from a dodgy 1990s cartoon. No one speaks like that in real-life, not even in their head. If I could punch her in the voice I would.

Also heard once that sometimes some actors can get paid more for doing an advert than actually starring in a film or TV programme . big money in advertising

I think he must mean the face he puts on when he opens the fridge. It's the face on him 53seconds in, and is definitely due to what he just tasted, its very easy to miss. EDIT: reading his posts it seems he does think its the 53second bit, makes no sense to me.

I wondered why she is dressed like Mrs Doyle from father ted. Looks like a frumpy librarian or something.

And to top it off, they butcher "Can't touch this" by MC Hammer.

That fecking canisten or whatever its called, its always coming on when I am eating, "test yourself for vaginal thrush" and some other disease I can't nor do I want to remember, vaginosous or something It makes me cringe (the ad I mean).

The tic tac ad with the statistics about doing the same thing every day, encouraging us to shake it up. How ironic that this same ad is shown every day.

The carlsberg haircut ad with the 3 singers and the dog.

It is whooshing by you both, he makes that face because he was supposed to give her the food in the fridge, not cook, its the whole point of the ad...

Don't know if you are taking the piss or genuinely think that -does anybody else actually think that's the reason? no comments on youtube do.

....cos it tastes horrible (e.g. too salty) !

Grand dad is not happy to be left with Jo (he's reading a newspaper) but he has been told to feed her. He has no idea about cooking and is confused about the implements in the very well appointed IKEA kitchen but, with Jo's help, he does his best to produce something. The food unsurprisingly tastes horrible but they do have fun !

The new tv license ad makes me want to kick a child, the focus on "you" is grating. YOU must pay, YOU must fund Miriam's 27 children.

I'm starting to despise that advert where the grandfather makes dinner for the grand daughter and he makes these really irritating faces during the ad as if he's a monster..even thinking about it had me angry fcuk just cancel it already it's not even remotely amusing
