Adverts that irritate and entertain

Because they drive on the other side of the road there, I guess - needed to flip the images.

Someone should tell Richard Hammond that Morrisons provide plenty of trollies outside their shops, so he doesn't have to keep taking his own.

Is it me or does the short jingle played at the end of the Iceland adverts remind you of the Merdiain idents? For me it does and brings a little smile to my face, unlike Iceland themselves and the black haired old woman who advertises for them.

Some more antipodean delights for you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IAnR3K0ho4. This one hasn't been on the TV for a while but I thought it deserved an honourable mention.

They did get it right with BATBYGOBSTOPL, though.

It's not often I say this but, Alexia, I'll let you have that one.

Many thanks. I'm not usually like this by the way - I've just re-read some of my posts of the recent past and I'm being a bit of a twat. Can't really say why, but can only apologise if I'm offending anyone. I'm not usually a mardy arse.

Is that the name of the new Bank Holiday the WAG are threatening to introduce?

These guilt-trip adverts are getting tedious now. I don't like the new NHS stop smoking ads either.
