I hate the pee pad adverts and the ones for erectile disfunction. How would you explain those away to a seven year old boy, or girl. Why do they need to be shown early in the evening.

Well, one 12 year old looked at me wide-eyed when the one for erectile dysfunction came on 🤔

Whst happened to the 9 o'clock watershed?

They play certain adverts at certain times of the day because they know a particular demographic will be watching.’

Yes, sitting with a nonagenarian neighbour watching afternoon tv I could really do without ads for cremation! Walk-in baths and stairlifts I am prepared to tolerate.

I love the one with the tiny girl going to buy her mum some chocolate, and paying with buttons and a tiny toy. Then the kindly shopkeeper gives her her "change", the toy.

Oh yes, love that one 🙂

I usually shout at the Sunlife ones.

The women who have a pee problem at their age really should have been doing their pelvic floor exercises.

Sunlife ones are so fake! If it's the same people, they're probably 90+ by now! 🤣🤣

And will never get back what they paid in! Or their relatives won't.

But they get a nice pen.
