Re: "Lets Get It On!!"

As I've mentioned before, I hate the one for LV. Also the mini bingo girls with the silly heads sponsoring Emmerdale. 118, yes, irritating. And the new Go Compare ad, where people travel in a coach as if they are going on holiday! Not the noisy singer, but annoying even so.

Love Oleg.

Definitely the 118 ads, really annoying and seems to have been on for years now!
The one I love, as I said on another post is the Eurostar ad, the French accent....mmmmm, could listen all night!! I think it's quite good though, apart from the dishy voiceover.

Re: "Lets Get It On!!"

I love the 'Viking River cruises' adverts - one of my pet ambitions - to do the Danube cruise down to Vienna and Budapest.

Of course, when they say "prices from £399" - that means the cheapest cruise for 1 person sharing a basic cabin. In reality, for a good cabin on a popular cruise, you're talking at least twice that.

I have often though of the River Cruise But from Australia all the deals are for couples (Not One Person)
And the cost STARTS from around $10000.

As for adds I despise them. In Australia to watch a 90 minute movie on the tely usually goes for about 3 hours, sometimes longer. And you may see a series of adds over, and over, and over.

I started muting all the ads when that bl***y Barry Scott started advertising Cillitt Bang! Now I only get annoyed at the rictus grinning of the "babe" on the Fifty Plus ad.

Oh yes, I'm with you all the way on that one Twiz, don't he get on your wick.
Another one I can't stand is that stupid man who shouts loudly about his bl***y double glazed windows - is it Safestyle or something? I loathe him so much I don't even listen to what he's selling. Irritating ads can actually lose customers.
A third one is those two twerps, one pretending to be American, selling car insurance. Can't think which one for the same reason as above!

Fortunately the ABC doesn't show any ads so I restrict my viewing to their channels. Suits me.
