The Classic Watch Company. A man I would run a mile from if I saw him on a market stall has just appeared on my telly asking me to send him some family heirlooms as they could be worth money.

Look out for it. Seriously creepy.

To put is melodramatically: The Royal Caribbean cruises (the nation of why not) epitomises everything that is wrong with western society's approach to the rest of the world.

And it looks shit.

Greggs bake a cake, almost as nauseating as the Halifax £5 breakfast radio thing.

OK so according to Neurofen my headache is a crow and the tablet changes it into a small red ball of fluff. The thing doing the changing looks suspiciously like a hoodie too.....

Go Compare adverts are very annoying.

See, I quite like the show "Over there!" is from, so I'm quite fond.

Not so fond of the radio ads though, but the newer TV ones are moderately amusing.

Very effective campaign though - you'd be hard pushed to find anyone who isn't aware of Go Compare.

Oooh. That rhymes.

Your views?
I adore that advert. Very effective.

And I'll agree with GoCompare - extremely irritating but annoyingly effective.

Very annoying understates it - the other week I was almost about to lob my Sky remote at the TV

After the awful, awful previous attempts I rather like the current CreditExpert adverts. They're so odd and deadpan.
