Is that not the malteasers ad?

The blonde wife in the m & ms ad cheating on her husband is a total fox as well.

I think we need more hard hitting road safety adverts targeted at young drivers. Almost every single weekend there are deaths from car crashes and one thing they almost all have in common is young people speeding around in cars in the early hours of the morning. The message is just not getting through.

Deaths on Irish Roads are fairly evenly spread across all ages;

The only other ad that currently makes me do that is the very upsetting ad about the little boy that was killed by the drunk driver. It's a hard hitting ad, relevant and hopefully will make people think before considering drink driving, but if you're watching football on sky on a Sunday afternoon it's literally on every single ad break.

That ad has been shown so much and for so long I'd say it's lost any impact that it's had. Also I hate the way the nurse speaks on it. All. Of. Those. Pauses.

Bring back the graphic ads. They got people talking.

My problem with that ad is the way the wife says "it's people from Meath who are careful with their money". There's nothing wrong with being careful with your money, but ive met more than one Cavan person who were the stereotypical Cavan person who would charge you for the steam off their pis$.

Not only did they get paid to do the ad, i bet yer man tried to haggle with them.

I mute the tv very quickly so I have never heard anything past the first words. Her voice goes through my head in a very painful way.

The Oral B ad that just won't go away.
It starts off with a woman saying 'Bum!' to the camera and steadily goes downhill from there.

Them two Welsh brothers going around following the Six Nations with their mammy's purse have surely helped spread the Coronavirus.

Oh I hate it. It has some extreme close-ups we can all do without.

I'm allergic to 99% of advertising, but I love that one!

There's so much pure sh*te advertising out, seems unfair to single them out.

The way things are going you won't be able to say 'pints' on telly anymore.

Velma?

Anyone who grew up with the Scooby Doo cartoon can assure you Velma looks nothing like that.

Depends on the show you grow up with. After the live action movies, they made Velma cute in the animated TV shows.

That and sassy. And her and Shaggy started dating.

She was a lot of fun on that.

Colgate Total ad.
"Millions of bacterier are hiding in your mouth. Try Colgate Total. It helps fight bacterier."
Want to punch her every time I hear it. Do they not listen to these people when recording them?

That ad doesn't bother me.

On the other hand the vodafone Team of upper middle class ad makes me want to put my foot through the screen.

I think it's a refreshing change from 1950s era idealised husband, wife and 2.5 children, within wedlock of course.

Where are all the divorcees? Broken relationships, fights over who pays the mortgage .... Oh wait Advertising is an idealized form of media. TG for Judge Judy, to show the harsh reality of what happens when a relationship breaks down.

The new Virgin Media ad with the woman shouting Hey Google is a pain in the hole. She sets off my nest speaker at home.

Enjoy it while you can, Judy's coming to an end this year. Sadly.

I suppose there's Judge Rinder... but I HATE that guy.

The girl with a super annoying voice saying 'one for you , one for me' etc really loudly. It's for a perfume stupidly called Nomination, which brings to mind gormless teens throwing back pints of larger while filming themselves.
