Even more adverts you despise

I don't get these modern singers at all ... I am more of an Elvis, Charlie Rich and Ray Charles person ... so cannot comment on how some of these people sing ... it is a different genre and era but not to my taste ... I prefer the older singers like those mentioned ...

There seems to be a thing too with ads and Beatles imitations .... like that ELO song from those awful Lotto ads, that Spar Christmas ad song 'the lights are going on yeah' and that former AIB ad with 'this could be our year' ....

Funny how people have different opinions. That is my favourite ad on TV at the moment.

Especially Timothée Chalamet for Chanel which Martin Scorsese was involved

Hannah Waddingham from Ted Lasso also popping up in an ad for Baileys as well as M&S ad

I like to think of the costume makers who got the fun commission, and a nice little earner, and not some has been celebrity trying to demonstrate he's still a player.

The sky ad for a league of their own. Jamie redknapp C U N Tuesday and that Georgie strong man with the face painted and the rest of the tosspots.

Dunnes Stores ad that has two christmast tree ornaments, a santa and a unicorn talking about little (? Sean) helping his dad peel the carrots, its beyond pathetic, there's only two (desperate) lines in it, my grandkids could have done a better job of reading them.

Been watching Drop The Dead Donkey on Channel 4 app the last while. Any comedy is ruined by those Coors ads just before with the 3-4 smug cnuts arriving on bears or the gobshíte that arrives on an eagle. You then see them horsing into the coors like there’s no tomorrow. Sad ba$t*rds! Not only are they insufferable smug cnuts but they have f-all taste in beer along with it. I really don’t know how Coors think this crap American advertising is in anyway appealing this side of the pond. I have a high opinion of Coors before in saw these ads but I’d sooner drink my own pi$$ than Coors now.

Any ad with that hideous Vogue Williams, eugh.

Looks like VeriSure are in a race to the bottom with themselves for the most annoying security ad. Hot on the heals of the bints in tge cinema comes the 3 yobs hanging out at they’d mates new house. “You keeping it safe?” said nobody ever on being over at they’d mates new gaff. What’s the point of ads that are so stupid and annoying they actually put punters off the product?

I'm sorry for their loss, but I'm sick of seeing the miserable ad about drunk driving and its potential consequences. I'm sure people know the one, it's been on at Christmas for the last number of years. Way to suck all happiness you might have been feeling at the time. I ####### hate it, I change the channel every time it comes on. Is this going to be a holiday tradition forever more?

Because two people are sharing a meal that's intended for more than two.....Seriously 🙄. Some healthy eating group complained.

The ad about the speeding he’s doing 40 in a 30. Speak up or speak out. Is it on the radio I heard it.

insufferable arseholes.

Which Healy Rae, the one who said eating a heavy meal was more dangerous than drink driving?

You're missing the point. The whole idea is that people live in this "30k town", they're working there all day, crossing the road, seeing neighbours, living a community life, and the least you can do for them as a very temporary visitor in your comfortable car, is to slow the fcuk down to a speed that not only keeps them safe, but also allows them not to be dominated by motorists going from B to C via A and contributing nothing but pollution to A. I think it's a reasonable thing to ask. I can't wait for the 30k speed limit in my estate - 50k is way too fast with kids out on the road on bicycles, playing football, etc.

It's that season again where the Dancing with the Stars Nobodies will be starting on RTE early in the new year. Cringey ad, where the only person I recognised was the newsreader Eileen Dunne.

A lot of the adverts on RTE seem to be Government sponsored nowadays. Anybody else noticed that? and they are all terrible as well

Happens every year. Waste the full budget this calendar year so you are not cut budget in next.

Hence each December sees a splurge in advertising from Government departments, NGOs, etc.

Ha ha, Santa obviously didn't deliver the goods this year! Nerver mind, nothing like a good rant to get rid of Xmas excess.

The radio ad is nice in a 60s sort of way. He's buying the train set for his son though, like his father did all those years before. I actually like the nostalgic memory of the phrase he remembered his father using to express surprise at Santa's choice; "Well, doesn't that bate Banagher". I was transported back to the 60s by this, and the talk of the old men with that Midlands accent and exactly those kind of phrases.

In the end, the protagonist was buying the train set for his son, but really for himself. I still have the Hornby train set I bought in 1990 for my then 9 year old son. I sneak it out now and then.

I don't know what the lyons one is, I mustn't have noticed it. The Barry's tea one with the trainset is iconic, its also from 1994 wyb, that's hitting 30 years.

"You're through to the Pieta Helpline, how can I help you?"

That one on the phone has a spooky smirk as she listens to some distraught soul trying to reach out..... eeriest ad I've seen in years. Makes me hit the mute button every time.

I see the 'Deadly Dave' Rockshore ad has returned, after that bizarre Xmas diversion with Ronan Keating. I can't see myself supping one as a summer thirst quencher anymore, I've no interest in boyzone 'merch', if that's the right expression.
