Re: What are your best and worse TV ads?
 
My favourite ad of all time has to be the old Woolworths Christmas ad from around 1981, 'Have a cracking Christmas at Woolworths, a cracker of a Christmas shopping spree...' ah the memories.
Worst? GO COMPARE...AAAGGGHHH!!!!

Despise that Halifax ISA advert with the vanilla ice tune. Makes me hope that Halifax are bought out by some other bank just to stop them from making stupid and annoying adverts.

I,m pretty sure its for cologne, but I usually flick over before it ends,

it just does my kipper in :D,

Is anyone else really enchanted with the Italian girl in the pasta advert - the one where Tim Lovejoy cons her into cooking dinner for their date together?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2bGsl-xIcU

I could listen to her speak Italian all day.

I can't stand that Plusnet radio ad where that idiot with the nasal voice tells us that they "can't be beat" - someone ought to tell him the correct word would be "beaten".

Nowt's beaten in Yorkshire lad, it can only be beat if owt

Russ 31-10-2010 22:22

Re: What are your best and worse TV ads?
 
OK I'm guessing 'Beat' is what Yorkshire folk say instead of 'beaten'? Fine, if the ads were staying within Yorkshire. As it's going to the rest of the UK they'd be better off using words and expressions the rest of us know.

Stuart 31-10-2010 22:27

Re: What are your best and worse TV ads?
 
That ad irritates me, as it implies that Yorkshiremen are inherently more trustworthy than anyone else. I've met a few, and you get the same mix of trustworthy and untrustworthy as anywhere else.

Can't stand that First Direct Ad. Starts off in a classroom and kids are being noisy and that girl (Michelle Green) making that awful noise and then the teacher walks in and says "Michelle Green, you and I are going be having a long conversation."

Can't abide it at all, to the point that I just switch channels quickly when it comes on.

I only ever watch TV when I visit my mum's on a friday, I honestly don't know how her, or others, can stand the constant annoying adverts during the breaks

Not only that, but the adverts which seem to have been going for YEARS (Direct line, andrex etc spring to mind)

I'm glad I don't watch TV :P

worst advert

That horrible "Go To Meeting" advert that is always on sky news at half past six in the morning with horrible aussie bird who wants to "touch a customer" and won't stand still :mad::mad::mad:

can't find a link

best advert

the new skoda fabia vrs advert http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aom2wOqZo-I

Sad I know but I do like the CBeebies advert with the small girl mixing cake batter. It never fails to make me smile when she adds the currants.

Niles Crane 17-11-2010 00:09

Re: What are your best and worse TV ads?
 
I'm not sure if i should hate the latest Very.co.uk advert or love it. They're using one of my favourite songs (and a pretty obscure song too); "Bert's Apple Crumble" by the 60's mod band The Quik. I'm not really liking the song being used in such a way but it's a truly a piece of instrumental genius, so more opportunity to hear it is great.

Re: What are your best and worse TV ads?
 
Best advert ever for me is the "Night driving" one for VW Golf http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5U9I7QrpSkk
Although the Sony Bravia ones we're great,
Bouncing balls, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zOrV...eature=related

Clay http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLUAbkRUvVQ

and Domino's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fcnza...eature=related

Worst one is a current one with Babies randomly laughing, the sound makes me cringe, don't get me wrong i don't mind kids but i can't stand the sound of them laughing on that advert,http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIlJw5h_eNc

Re: What are your best and worse TV ads?
 
Rather like the new Skoda advert. Unlike the Julie Andrews "sweet" advert of old, this one's the exact opposite - and the special effects are pretty good too!

http://www.youtube.com/user/Official...87119&kw=skoda

The one I don't like at the moment is the Birds Eye advert with the polar bear in the fridge - if I found it in my fridge - it would end up in the oven - gas mark 10!

The "Go Compare" ad's which started out as mildly amusing have now milked what little appeal they started out with to the Nth degree, so much so that as soon as one comes on its a mad rush to hit the mute button.

My favourite ad was the old "Hovis" bread ad, where the young boy is free wheeling down the cobbled street accompanied by that classic tune. Puts me in mind of Sunday nights as a kid, "by gum those were happy days":D

And my worst advert without a shadow of a doubt, is the one for "safestyle" double glazing, the one where the balding guy keeps shouting "buy one and get one free, I said BUY ONE AND GET ONE FREE":td:

I have to AGREE with you on this one, the man is SO annoying especially when its on late at night... Grr!! :P

Agree about the wonga ad being terrible and also agree about their rip off APR charges. Anyone remember the Cadbury`s choclate fingers ad,`Harry the spiders coming out party`?

BTW, I saw that ad once in the Odeon Leicester Square. Yes, the vehicle noises are recorded using Dolby Digital surround sound, so the ad sounded absolutely amazing. Especially when the old and modern F1 cars pass the camera.

l hate those bleedin Wonga adverts as the APR is incredibly high and people should not fall for this loan shark company.

APR means nothing though as they are usually small short term loans that would be paid off within a couple of months.

Loving the new Sainsburys advert.

l have yet to see the new Sainsburys one yet so l have a look on Youtube to see what it is like.

Most interesting ad at the moment. Haven't seen it on tv, so it might be Cinema only, but it's the Heineken ad.

The full version (which seems to be more a video for the song, rather than an ad) is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=On6U-kQGBcA

The Ring/The Grudge type girl one?

I lol'd. Shame it'd scare the crap out of kids though.

Those Halifax adverts with the choir. Usually I can't stand adverts for banks but this one really has the laxative effect on me (ie irritates the brown stuff out of me). It tries to be so warm, fuzzy and cuddly but makes me want to put a brick through their window :grind:

denphone 03-10-2011 14:51

Re: What are your best and worse TV ads?
 
Steady on Russ but yes its is a very irritating advert and and not the first by Halifax as l can remember several more irritating adverts by them.

Peter_ 03-10-2011 15:23

Re: What are your best and worse TV ads?
 
Every single Halifax advert makes me want to vomit and is a good enough reason never to bank with them or possibly even visit Halifax.:D

I fact I would ship everyone who ever appeared in an advert to Halifax Nova Scotia in just their uniform in the middle of winter.

The adverts that are really getting on my nerves at the moment are the Barclays onnes. That anoying guys voice really makes me want to scream. On top of that he talks a load of nonsense (i.e. "someone will have to clean that up,probably the dog" so bloody iritating! )

The wonderful Stephen Merchant, about as funny as a case of haemorrhoids.

Whatever that advert is where people try to sing the final countdown and all of the heads pop up projected on the side of these skyscrapers. Why must these adverts be sung by people who are completely tone-deaf?

On the other side of the coin, you can't beat Vic and Bob's old TV licence fee ad

That's because it's members of the public. You can add yourself to it on the website. Thinks its for the Olympics.
