    News of the World(?) ads with Paul Williams.

    And then the Sunday World ads with your wun who replaced Paul Williams.

    Stupid ads. Stupid journalists. Stupid newspapers. Who cares about the Don, the Penguin, the Monk etc etc etc

    Ah, someone "cared" about him after all ...


    Can't stand the "leave out the French" ads by the Sun: pointless hatred of the French is an English trait ... plus having to see and hear David O'Leary

    They're just getting a bit of practice in for the main paper to prepare for this summers target. If it ends up being Henry it'll be the funniest thing ever.

    Yep, I hate that too. Especially the Irish version where the voices are dubbed into horrible bog accents.

    We're all in this psy-op together.🤨

    On a similar note,they've also dubbed the Carlsberg ad about the yeast from an authentic Danish accent to that annoying guy that does the apprentice voiceovers.

    I hate that Go Compare ad with the opera singer guy. I f***** hate it. I literally have to either mute the TV, change the channel or turn the TV off. It's that bad. I actually refuse to use their site too because of it.


    Drives me mad also.
    I went back just a few pages and was surprised i hadnt seen more of this.

    not matter how tired i am ill run for the remote no matter where it is when this ad comes on.
    It's irritates me like nothing else on earth and i mean that
    this has to be the most annoying ad on the tv bar none and it seems
    to be on a hundred different channels.

    The Meteor one with all the happening crowd at a house party. I can't put my finger on it but something about it just gives me a double dose of the ****es. One guy in particular who keeps saying "seen it, seen it" I would gladly put his head down the jacks and flush, thrice.

    Fridge empty??? Scanal! I know who dunnit... Elephant in the room...

    The ones from the financial regulator a few years ago, where they all started standing up on the bus "I don't know what a tracker mortgage is" Probably better off not to love, with the interest rates these days! :p
