You want to count yourself lucky if that was all they were doing in response to it ;)

I have but one word to say: Howard..

Re: What Adverts do you hate the most?
 

Dont see many with Sky+ so i would have to say those ones that you get just before and after the commercial break, the sponsors adverts.

If only because you cant help but catch them when you slow down to normal speed.

Oh and anything which takes a popular old or classic song and rearranges the words to fit the advert, why songwriters allow this to happen i will never understand.

Re: What Adverts do you hate the most?
 

I try to be fair, I have watched all the adverts, and my considered opinion is ......I Hate Them All. There have been many irritating adverts produced, in the last few years, but none can compete with the smarmy old Ovaltine ads.

All together now....we are the Ovaltinies happy girls and boys.....now that's a song to have stuck in your mind for days:disturbd: . Nothing they produce nowadays is half as irritating.

Thanks to this thread I am now humming the blasted thing.:Yikes:

Ohhhhhh the smash adverts. With the robots, how bad did you hate that one?

Re: What Adverts do you hate the most?
 

I was an exceptionally precocious child, my memories being older than my teeth!:p: I don't really know if I saw the original ads. They just seem to be there in my subconscious memory. The coke ads. don't really bother me, the Christmas ones are quite cheery.:) or should I say cheesy?

There is the M&S insurance one with Jodie Kidd I think.

They have her in a stock car racing when she has an accident, they mention hire car cover, then her stock car breaks down and they mention free breakdown recovery and then show her racing car being recovered.

Of course while all this is going on, at the bottom of the screen it says "Cars used for racing and competition excluded."

Re: What Adverts do you hate the most?
 

ANY ad on the radio. They seem to be unable to grasp the content of humour.

Then the (extremely quickly spoken) terms and conditions still last longer than the actual ad

Re: What Adverts do you hate the most?
 

The Coke Zero ones. Coke Zero is bad enough but why did they have to have ads to match?
The current really annoying Lynx ones.

Re: What Adverts do you hate the most?
 

Anny advert featuring the 118 characters. Not funny at all.

Re: What Adverts do you hate the most?
 

Noooo... the Lynx ads! Good reason not to watch anything other than BBC.

Re: What Adverts do you hate the most?
 

100% agree, thats why I've given up on F1 and watch A1GP instead on $sky Sports
