What are your worst tv ads?

[postman]

Those dancing men.Odd that is.Plus a holiday one.Some kid dancing near a pool.If the holiday is as bad as his dancing it will be crap.

Those Andrex ads with soppy children and drippy parents inanely laughing at "As clean as a man called David"...........plonkers.

The Go Compare fat opera singer. I thought they killed him off, now he's back and apparently everything is 'fantastic'. I will mute the TV when thats on. I wholeheartlely agree about the Halifax Topcat/Finstones ads. Aimed at dredging up nostalgia in 40 year olds but cant see why nostalgia for Topcat would make you take out their mortgage.

The fact that we are all discussing them means that they have had the desired effect. As @Markymark pointed out upthread, it's all about planting the brand name in your subconscious.

Yup. The fact you can remember the brand means job done, regardless of whether you though the advert crap or not

the worst ever tv ad has to be the Bodyform ad from from a very long time ago...Whooaa bodyform....woman singing with a very loud and very annoying voice!

I've noticed most catch up programs delete the adverts, which is nice..

Worth waiting an hour and watching it add free.

There are loads of holiday ads at the moment.
Look at the airport, swimming pool and restuarant, they are all empty and stress free. Bollox.

Go anywhere during school holidays and you have to be up at 7am just to get a sun bed around the cramped swimming pool, and the restuarants are like a chimps tea party.

Just beggars belief, if my "holiday" started off like that every morning I'd rather stay at home..

Oh and let's not forget Tena Lady for the discerning female that wants to quietly wet herself in public
