Does anyone else find the guy's voice on the Three ads very annoying? He has this sort of high-toned, slightly sing-song delivery that's hard to describe but which sounds totally put on. And he pronounces numbers with that put-on vaguely American pronunciation, e.g "thirdy euros".

I haven't laid eyes on him, but I just know he has an annoying hiptster beard! :pac:

Pretty sure it's the guy trying to sell air in an Three ad s couple of years ago.

Yes his voice is incredibly annoying. I think he used to be in fair city! They all seem to do loads of voice overs!

The subway ad annoys me as well. Get up, shower, tame frizzy hair, fake laugh, SALAD! Shock horror shes having a salad for her lunch.

they called it groundhog day. I find her strangely attractive. Has 350,000 views and out only a month.

The redhead girl advert "office party" one is out 7 months and only has 4,400 views and thought it would have been watched as much.

Comments are disabled so I cannot tell if people were watching to see the actresses name, looks familiar and is not mentioned.

Some companies have interesting videos on their youtube site. Apache pizza show how to make some of their stuff, like staff instructional videos.

Archeron

Vauxhall have a new hybrid people carrier jeep thing advertised by the pyjama mama's, telling the mama's to flaunt those pyjamas as they drive around in their new vauxhaulls. Of course , in the ad all the pyjamas look like they've been hand stitched by the court tailor of the emporer of China, not the reality of washed out grey Penney's finest with a picture of Daffy duck on them and a strong chance of a chicken ball in one of the pockets.

Who looked at a 35k car and thought the ideal target market was people who couldn't be arsed getting dressed?

Emmet Kirwan is yer man, or who I sometimes refer to "Annoying 3 voiceover guy waiting for his b*alls to drop at midnight", terrible voice, whiney altogether, I hit the mute button, whenever I hear his whinge, how he gets gigs doing voiceover ads I'll never know, i'd do a better job with my bogger accent

Cantona's Collars

The new ad doing the rounds on UK TV 'for women',shows an old woman in a swimsuit,gym classes etc. I'm not sure what the point of it is and I'm damn sure if they made one for men there would be a fuss about sexism.

The Trivago girl has the voice of someone who parties way too much. I have a feeling she's been around the block multiple times. Dirty.

This made me laugh. I've seen this ad three times now and I've no idea what it is fr. After the second time I waited for it to come on and indeed it did, but I'm none the wiser.

4. That Virgin Media ad with the cable guy "listening" to the cable and inside is a load of TV people having a race in various old cars. Get over yourselves, for all the channels on offer there is usually nothing but rubbish and ads on.
.

Oh yeah. I used to quite like that tune, but that ad annoys the hell out of me. Also the "tickets" ad, and the Energia ones with the horrible Francis Brennan like voiceover.

Always thought that was Nicky Byrne..good to know there's more than one whiny nasal high pitched "presenter" on our airwaves

Roanmore

The ad for the authentic Thai curry where your man won't allow his girlfriend eat it until he takes a photo. If I was her I pour it over his head.

It is a UK government funded campaign to get females into sport.

The couple from the Lidl ad when the guy can't believe a baby goes through 70 nappies pal. They had a baby girl and called her Summer


Still dislike the ad

The kid will be covered in manky tattoos in no time.

Th butchering of Rudyard Kipling's "If" in yet another ad to get Mum's to pat themselves on the back for having a kid. So condescending.

I saw this ad today and it is very annoying. The poem seems to be the go to for ads who think butchering verse sells products.

The Specialist

That Eir advert is like pure poison - I can't even just mute it now but have to instantly change channel. Did somebody actually get paid to come up with that scutter?

Also FYI Eir - anything you can do is always done exceptionally better by your competitors, you absolute ****ing jokeshop.

optogirl

Toothpaste ad where the message is 'Brush your teeth to attract men on the train '

Sparkly toothed woman is gooing & gahing at a baby, followed by being up in the armpit of some equally sparkly toothed man

That's right girls, nothing to do with your own health, do it for him.

The An Post ad about no borders is horrible

For sheer frequency, the Aldi Buffalo Mozzarella.

I like it because I'm a major Richard Hawley fan, it's good to know An Post are spending the recent price hikes in the cost of sending a letter wisely.

The "do I look like I've time for a headache?" knob is back unfortunately.

Yeah, who knew you had to have time for a headache ?

Lemonposset

The ad where the mum cleans the kitchen counters and the highchairs with a chicken leg *vomit*

The new Corsa ad. I just dont get it.

Guy in corsa with girl. Girl is typing into her phone and guy says the car has wifi. Girl goes really?!? Guy gives her the password. Two gimps from another car shout over that the password is a capital C.

First I dont get why she is so surprised at a car having a wifi hotspot. How do the other guys know it? Is it not a bit creepy that they are listening to their conversation?

No borders? Really? I got charged almost the cost of an €80 dvd boxset in taxes and charges because it came from the Channel Islands. Don't talk to me about no borders.

I think you missed the point, the guy with the girl isn't in a Corsa he's in an old Volvo. His mates are in the Corsa thats why they know the password.

Just so you can check.....

Your right, I completely missed the whole "guy is in an old crappy car".

Once it gets explained to you, I suppose its not such a bad ad.

Nah, its still a crappy ad.

When I first saw the first few seconds I thought it was going to be an ad for a remake of the Zodiac killer.
