Now is it just me being an old fart or are some adverts really really annoying?, I mean the latest Disneyland Paris advert is flippin awful, their they are jumping about as if God himself had turned up at the front door and offered them eternal life when all they are going bonkers over is they are going to a naff theme park built round a US inspired cartoon rodent!, and it’s one that’s in France so it’s not exactly exotic now is it. They conveintly leave out shots of them all standing around for hours waiting for trains and busses while they all argue due to lack of sleep!.
And my top hate is the latest set of BT adverts, I just want to throw up when I see that woman flouncing about as if her cr&p doesn't stink, and it gets worse!, they now want you to go on twitter and actually vote about her up and coming fecking wedding!, please isn’t life bad enough without making it even more delusional and depressing, it’s a flippn phone line were on about here, well that and a naff broadband speed.
BT should worry about giving us the bloody line speed they charge us for and not p*&s their money up on adverts and very annoying ones at that. Even the **** from go go-compare is more tolerable well just!.

    I hate all adverts too. they are really failing to get their point across with me as I can never take all the info in.
    However my kids would be jumping for joy if I took them to EuroDisney, so they got that one correct.

    I am not keen on the advert with the polar bear in the freezer, very freaky, think it's Birdseye or something similar!

    Just wait for the product placement on ITV. They keep advertising that its going to start. Why do they need all the pigging adverts?? Of course I know the answer but why not have adverts between the programmes rather than during. That way you could get to watch a film on one of the commercial channels without the sodding things getting in the way.

    Must admit I do like the haribo advert - Sign the fession. Look into my eyes She is just so cute

    I have Virgin+ and do exactly the same thing.... my mother is obsessed by the adverts I'm sure she watches them more often than the programmes.... she even knows the names of the characters in them! what a sad life she leads..lol

    I like the IKEA advert with all the **** cats in it, and of course, who doesn't like the 'compare the meerkat' adverts?

    The bloke that does the Go Compare ad's is a classically trained and famous opera singer... does he have nothing better to do with his time??

    Adverts just drive me insane... One lass that I used to work with got very confused when i said i didn't watch adverts and asked me 'How do you know what to buy when you go shopping?' I was like errum i read the lables and look at the pictures in the supermarket.... sheesh...
