Its ghastly, isn't it.

Look at them, with their faux banter supping away on their mugs of coffee as if to say, "I'm *so* relaxed having hysterics as we play our thanks-for-listening tribute song, loathsomely nodding, cackling and grinning like imbeciles.

Makes me wretch.

That Walkers advert with the nude people is one of the finest misdirects I've seen in an advert in a long time. I was certain it was going to be some pretentious perfume advert when I first saw it.

The new We Buy Any Car advert.

Ok, so it's still got the shitty song, but now there's some odd and pointless breakdancing too. WHY?!

Ditto - except its *so* well done. I was watching one of the tots thinking what a good sense of rhythm he has.

So Barclaycard One Touch have 'launched' Coaster the successor to Flume over this weekend. Superbly produced as was the original which I think they've bettered.

Your views?

I agree - although I preferred the soundtrack of the last one - this one is a bit obvious.

But yes, its brilliant. Even me with my vertigo would give my right goolie to have a go on that rollercoaster.
