What advert makes you want to throw something at the telly?

We record most things so we can zip through the ad.

That silly holiday ad with the Christmas music and an awful boy with an ice cream.

Just terrible.

Oh yes, isn’t he just horrible. I’d like to shove his ice cream in his face.

Daisy, daisy, daisy. Aarghh

Since we have had Sky Glass I mainly only watch tv by streaming which usually means no adverts ! I’ve forgotten what they are 😂

I cant stand the we buy any car advert. It just grates on me. There are a few adverts at present that I get so annoyed with.

the women sitting on the loo telling us about pads

This one. A step too far! And ads showing women exercising, and no pad showing .
Thankfully they didn't have these when I was young. I would have been so embarrassed watching telly with my boyfriend.

I hate the incontinance pads ones too, especially the one with the two women at the yoga class and one says she can now “let it all go” I just imagine her peeing herself in the class. Gross!

The BBC is for EVERYONE! - I don't think so

I have a little rule, very seldom broken, to never buy anything that’s advertised.

The BBC shows more adverts than commercial channels sometimes!

Another vote for the daisy, daisy, daisy one . The girls look like they’re part of a weird cult .
Hate the holiday one with the obnoxious family , it puts me off using that company. Also hate the dating one where the guy pulls a stupid face at the painting and woman simpers into his shoulder 🤮.
Some of the car and perfume ads are so obscure, you don’t know what they’re advertising. The one where the woman drives for miles and then starts aging and is a much older woman at the end. At first I thought it was a car ad . And the Johnny depp one where he buries his jewellery in the desert 🤷‍♀️.

The old M&M one with the woman in bed with an M&M and the other one saying "Scott's home early". Creepy!

The Many Pets insurance ad with the woman crying while the dog sits there as her "therapist".

Lots more where you struggle to work out what the ad is for.
Many with people/objects flying around or crashing through walls etc.

Natalie Portman pouting and scowling at the camera saying “and you. What would you do for love?” It’s a perfume ad - goodness knows which one. Who cares? I thought we’d seen the end of that ad, but no, back it comes to irritate me all over again.

My ex at one tine had to wear pads, so he told our poor DD. Why don’t they advertise a man instead of a woman have problems?
Don’t like hearing rudeness and disrespect, especially from children, shows children watching low level attitudes towards others.

The pure cremation and equity from property, pads, perfume ones with half naked women. In fact all ads! Who takes notice of them anyway. Who buys those expensive vacuum cleaners or pods for the washing machine. Although many years ago when ads first started on TV my mother served a ready made trifle she said it was advertised on TV so must be good.
I either tape programmes or watch them on apps..

mokryna - many years ago my Dad had to use pads as he suffered badly from haemahorroids, which bled badly, He could not afford to take time of work (which would have been unpaid), in order to have an operation to sort these out.

I am amazed that people get embarrassed by an advert involviong pads - do they also get so with loo roll adverts???

The opera singer one, Daisy, Daisy .....................

The ‘Just eat’ one with the hurdles woman who looks totally bowled over by too many options. Dreadful!

What happened to ‘go to work on an egg”? Or the brilliant “Nimble” air balloon ?

So many...
But McCain using a nauseating sanctimonious croaky voiced bloke pretending that selling greasy high calorie junk is somehow laudable and is "family".
Dyson selling massively overpriced electrical goods made in the far East as if it is somehow technology as advanced as NASA's output. It is a vacuum cleaner for God's sake and how can it possible not lose suction if it has filters that need to be cleaned?
Calgon with its laughably bad overdubbed voices telling you that not using their product will wreck your machine and make it stink. I have lived in hard water areas all my life and have dismantled older washing machines none of which had a fraction of the crap in them that their ad shows.
Boswellox, the lot of them!

The worst advert for is the one showing a loo with smells coming out from it when flushed, it advertises an air freshener. Had they not noticed that the loo has a lid, so why not use it !!

been watching a few box sets on STV player lately ( cant FF through them) and the 2 McDonalds ads really ittitate me. The one for the wrap with all the veg dancing round in circles really ittitates me. With the office block one....time they all got through the queue would be home time....I mean come out where do a few hundred people all go for lunch at one time???

We buy any Car. I hate it with the stupid actors dancing around like demented clowns. If there was ever an ad that persuaded you to do the opposite - this is it.

I basically don't see adverts.

i cant stand the Macdonalds one where everyone leaves their work desk and they all march out for a MacDonalds,

Sophiasnana

There are so many. I particularly cringe at the one for Our Time dating for over 50s. I just want to punch the two simpering actors! Grrrrrr
Also, car adverts like Peugeot who think they’ll sell cars by speaking in a silly French accent.
I must be getting old!

totally agree, Sophiasnana! Also the daft SunLife ones with the older couple in the kitchen - who pops into the neighbours with post and starts rabbiting on about life insurance. The cremation ones too

As a former physio who worked in women's health for a while the Tena type ads annoy me too - IT IS NOT NORMAL (please excuse the shouting!) to leak and all women should know where their pelvic floor is, what it does and how to stop leaking!!!!!

They all do, why does everyone have to shout? So, where possible record a programme if I want to see it, then fast forward to miss the adverts.
