sure no wonder they've packed in 'research' into wired hoovers when the wireless ones are sold at the three times the cost

they never seemed to be able to crack the design for a decent 13A 230V cleaner. I said in other threads that cleaners in work came asking me for the "good" vacuum and ridiculed the mains powered dyson and asked for some other instead.

The henry "hoovers" have always been the ones I have seen cleaning companies buy, and actual cleaners praise using over the years.

Maybe captain dyson is finally admitting his mains powered ones are utter shyte. And focusing on others which are likely battery powered.

The AA one with the child singing in the back and the dorky AA man punching the air at the end.

That Fixodent ad where yer one wobbles about on a CGI tooth. What irritates me most is that she's eating an apple wearing an evening gown.
Yeah, cos I always get a craving for an apple just before I head out to the ball.

Wasn't there one for a 'leftie/ rightie' biro not too long ago-unless you're counting the 'infomercial adverts' for a lot of biros.

I was watching an old clip from an Irish tv show, and forgot they used to advertise cattle products on tv(stuff to treat cows and calves, like fluke doses)-wouldn't be seeing anything like that now.

Started seeing an ad for Bovilis Bovipast RSP on RTE recently. It inoculates cattle against Pasteurella & influenza.

Maybe now it comes 10 years old it is ok, but when new, so horrible

Is that a Tipperary accent on her as well? Does my head in.

That blessed noise from the violin played by the child . We dive for the mute button when we see it . Why would anyone think that noise would entice you to Vodaphone ?

I actually like that ad. It's sad, I know! Back on topic though; do Brady's (the ham crowd) deliberately do annoying ads?

ULSTER BANK ad
Son meets his dad in the pub and buys him a drink with his bank card . Then son proudly says " I got this dad "
Dad acts like son has paid off dads mortgage and bought him a holiday home . One drink for heavens sake . One little drink !

If you could put her in mute mode it might be tolerable, coz in fairness she is rather gorgeous looking. :P

It's all part of an increasing overreach by advertisers into family life... Creating these utterly fake and mawkish scenes to sell mobile networks, banking and insurance products etc

Usually by corporations who are relentless in their gouging of Irish consumers.

Fu(king cynical in the extreme

They are all at it..

Horrendous. Cringy, wooden "acting", such a big deal about paying for a drink.

And it's on constantly.:mad::mad:

And it's Ulster Bank-I imagine the reality would be more like 'uh, Dad, can you lend us 100 quid-it's just Ulster Bank's computer systems have gone to hell and my account is now empty because of it, and I can't get my wages because it's paid via Ulster Bank' etc.

There was a time when the actor playing the dad was in a far better advert.

The AXA Red Line ad; "my body coloured bumper". That fella needs a large boot up the hole.

There are 3.5 billion women in this world and no two are the same...

That new beer ad that keeps saying "This is the West...brewed by the boys in St. James Gate."
Last time I checked St. James Gate is in the east.

2 very annoying ads from that mobile phone company - the 3 wallies and the violin recital and the DAD! one, - "D' yew know dis Bri-yan?" They give me a right pain in the backside.

Also the Iarnrod Eireann one where the gobsheen stays on the train even though his wife and kid are waiting on the platform. Makes no sense, what does he do when he finally gets off, what a spanner!

Same here. Mute button straightaway. It's a rotten ad.
