I recall there was something in america called cash4gold or something of the like which turned out to be a scam, when I saw the Selly your gold advert I thought 'Oh no.'

I particular like how you send it off in the post to them... because they won't steal it of course.

C&A, but not that one, the building plastics company. It's the classic advert that spent its money on a pretty girl that can't act

I saw a mildly amusing B&Q sponsorship advert for Grand Designs on More4 this afternoon.
As an elderly gentleman emerges from a shed, the voiceover says "Somewhere for grandad to keep his hoes."
Of all the garden tools they could've picked...

This one's been annoying me for ages because it doesn't show the inevitable end where these vain pricks all get gouged to death because they spent all their time at army doing their hair and being wanky.

I quite like it. I didn't at first, but I've come to appreciate it.
What do you make of this?

Yeah I saw the same version Hyma did. Seems a bit surreal for a soft drink.

Isn't the point of 'surreal' is that it's too surreal for anything?
