I hate the PC World/Dell adverts that mention Pentium and do that stupid jingle half way thru the advert - why can't they just leave it to the end???

Agree, audi ads are very cool indeed

not really an ad, but the VXR flash site is quite, better with sound

The Quinns advert is astoundingly well put together. The one where all the plants in the forest come alive (a bit like in Minority Report)

What about the new one for PC World ? The one with the student girl with the big BBS

On Sunday the Discovery Channel showed the same series of adverts during 6 hours of American Chopper and they were all adverts for discovery channel shows.

Best ..Honda Power of Dreams advert.
Worst..Vorderman

Love the people who say the more annoying they are the better the power of the advert to me the companies become objects of hate that I would not touch with a bargepole thanks to their adverts .

Ocean Finance,Halifax,PC World etc

Agree about the French bird.

Also quite like the Aussie girl that says "Where the bloody hell are you?"

The current one that pees me off is the Birds eye series.

Especially the salmon one...
I'm told, in a very patronising way, that it's better to buy frozen fish that's been transported several thousand miles (with the associated polution issues as well as the age of it) than to support the local (or even european) economy because there may be some colourant in it??? Whoopdedoo.

Makes me maaaaad!

Oh, and why obscure the fishing boat registration in the side on shots when it's clearly visible from the overhead shots???

BTW - not a treehugger but shipping food from half way round the world when it's available locally is just stoopid.
I'm currently boycotting pacific salmon, new zealand butter and NZ lamb

Ocean/Norton Finance, Sheila's Wheels, Norwich Union with the idiots who get cheap insurance even though they cut a swathe of blissful destruction everywhere they go, anything for ringtones, Elephant.co.uk, Admiral, and probably lots more.

Current hate, and probably worst ads EVER: The latest MFI ones, with folk acting like lowlifes inside the MFI store because they feel "at home".

ESPECIALLY the one where the horribly ugly, ape-faced, chav, ugly, mouthy, did I say ugly? girl apparently comes home late. God I could seriously hurt her!

Current fave: Oasis, I think, where all the wildebeeste come down to drink, and one's refusing to drink 'cos the water is dirty, and asks if it could get any worse? Then he's attacked by a croc, and goes into the water saying, "Oh apparently it can. This is EXACTLY what happened to Alan last year. Ow!"

Cracks me up every time I see it.

Hate the Halifax adverts, so much so that they would put me off banking with them.

Love the Volvic adverts 'Raarr, what you doing Mr Volcano?'
