    They're probably aimed at the stereotypical bored housewife ironing in the same room their kids are watching Nick in. And it's probably far cheaper to advertise on those channels than it is on 'real' ones.

    I have a theory that it's one big scam, they get you to take out a loan to buy insurance for when somebody sues you for something. Thats the reason why most ads are for getting loans, insurance or putting in a claim for damages. Think about it;)

    P.S. I feckin hate all those vulture ads as I call them:mad:

    Because there is a growing consensus against showing say chocolate ad.s to children.
