Irritating TV Adverts
 

Are there any TV adverts that irritate you? Its hard to put your finger on WHY they irritate you. They just do.

The one for a hair restorer where the dad comes home and tells his daughter he's going to need.....MORE TIES! is a case in point.

It irritates me no end. But why?:confused::confused::confused::confused::confu sed::confused:

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

yeah, the go compare ones. i dont use their website anymore because of the annoying ads.

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

If it was the last advert EVER ! I wouldn't use it ! But it must have a knock on effect with other advertisers . People in their homes have the television on , soon as this advert comes on they press the mute button , so they are not watching and listening to the rest of the adverts that have cost thousands to make .! So do other advertisers have a case to take "go-Compare " to court ??

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

I hate with a passion the Kwikfit advert where he clicks his fingers and goes back in time..... Grrrrrrrr

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

.....then there is the Fabreze advert where mum tells her two sons to clean their car to go and meet grandma. The expressions on the two boys' faces when grandma asks if its a new car make you want to give them both a good slap......

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

I detest all those ads by solicitors no win no pay for accidents, they really give me the pip

Re: Irritating TV Adverts

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Not every time, by the way, this post, who wrote it for you?
:)

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Yeh I concur, can't stand the singing, it's horrible - also the Nigel Mansell one also for insurance is bad!

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Bed ads irritate me. Especially when you see a couple having a waltz round the bedroom. Him in his DJ and her in her ball gown and they haven’t even made the bed :rolleyes:

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

why should ads irritate yah? have yeh not got a Mute button? the volume Always increases when the ads come on, so why listen to this drivel?

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

I haven't seen many lately but one that come to mind is those silly giggling women advertising Tena pads. If they can't control their silly giggles what chance have they of controlling their bladders:rolleyes:

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

I'll have you know it was all my own work Less:p

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

:s_boom:Anyone remember the durex advert that was shown earlier this year with 2 gay American police sitting in the car at the end? I don't know what happened to it - perhaps it was taken off due to complaints? Does it ring any bells?

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

You sure you meant to say 'bells' ? :D

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Colleen Nolan advertising xmas 2011 hampers,,,,,,we are not even into November 2010 yet,,,,,,,owt can happen in14 months,,,:unsure8:

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

The hamper company could go bust!

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

That's okay if you are in control of the remote control. :(:(

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

The berk who complains that he was given the wrong ladder - it is his responsibility. he should also learn how to hold an electric drill and using a power tool on a ladder he should have a safety man holding the ladder.

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Cashman that is what's irritating having to use the mute button...

That Fiat Evo ad is really irritating with the Faithless music to it.

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

I said this many times Barrie, every time the silly add comes on I shout at the box, then don't bloody use it you prat, people do have to take some responsibility for their own actions:(

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Another thing that's still happening is that when the ads come on the sound increases on its own, they said this was going to stop, but its still happening

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

While at the opposite end of the scale, you have eminently watchable ads like this one.

YouTube - The T-Mobile Welcome Back

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

That ad grows in you, but I don't think they have shown all of it - I've only heard the Boys are back in Town bit...

This is another great advert...

YouTube - Virgin Atlantic: 25 years, Still Red Hot

The Most important Invention of the 21st Century Advert, Ad - confused.com - Video Clip

This advert irritates the socks off me, not just because it's annoying but because it isn't accurate.

The internet isn't an invention of the 21st Century, it is an invention of the 20th Century and has been with us from it's infancy in 1969 through to what now exists.

Oct 29, 1969: Message sent from computer to computer in different locations.

1971: The first email was sent.

Jan 1, 1983: ARPANET adopted the standard TCP/IP protocol.

March 1989: Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web.

April 22, 1993: Mosaic became the first web browser.

Very interesting Less, I knew it was not a new phenomena, but didn't realise it was over 40 years old

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Marks and Spencers are really hammering home the Christmas mesage with their new TV ad featuring the Bee Gees music and Peter Kay - starting to get on the nerves.

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Ya but Twiggy's alright:D

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

the blummin Jenny Craig advert with Cheryl Baker in it is really getting on my nerves. I mean does anyone else think she still 'looks like a sausage bursting out of its skin', or is it just me? That is a most unflattering dress anyway!!

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Go compare you could just strangle that opera singing git:eek::D

Re: Irritating TV Adverts

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Another ad thats giving me the pip at the moment is Injury Lawyers for you, I keep shouting at the TV no your not your that bent copper Don Beech from the the Bill

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

The Kray twins gave Bill Murray £1,000, back in the 60's to pay for him to go to acting school! That's how he got his break - before that he was a boxer hanging round with the Kray's! Aparently!

No doubt a regular in the Thomas A Becket, down the Old Kent Road with our Henry:D

Can't agree more kestrelx, the guy always reminds me of a poor imitation of Nicholas Cage

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Remember that ad for kitchen towel with the 2 cross-dressers? That was a better ad ;)

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

On a similar theme I can't stand that little git that wanders round a Pine Forrest planting three trees every time he has a crap.:pain30:Soft - Soft - Soft little git.:D:D

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

What ever floats your boat kestrelx:rolleyes:

Re: Irritating TV Adverts

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Good Grief! Is that decrepit soap still on?

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Seems they're going to be auditioning for a bloke who leans on the bar at the Rovers, is a bit of a jack the lad, and has a moan every now and then:D

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

The McDonalds Christmas advert.

Re: Irritating TV Adverts

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

It never happens!!

YouTube - Hot Lynx Commercial

Somebody always puts my stuff back on the shelves.:D:D

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

The adverts annoying me at the moment are the ones which provide an over-romanticised picture of Christmas, like the Delia Smith ads and the Tesco (or is it ASDA) ones with the posh sister (Belcher?) and the bloke who wrapped his stomach in clingfilm in the Full Monty. The worst is probably the Jamie Oliver one , with everyone having a jolly jolly time in the snow, and Jamie bringing in the turkey to a cosy dining room with warm log fires.

Where is the reality of the rows, sulking, suffering of having to spend time with people you can't stand, and general arguing that goes with most family Christmases?

Or am I being too cynical? :(:(:(

Re: Irritating TV Adverts
 

Ya I guess so:D

Deary me, another Mr.Grinch ! :D
