Its starting to get on my nerves at work. Every 15 minutes there is Ben Dunne on the radio 'Are you listening Jackie Skelly......' 'my prices are lower then yours' etc etc. Yes Ben we get the message! Every Dub by now knows Jackie Skelly is evil. Give over with the adds!;)

Whats the most annoying add on the radio or tv atm in your opinion? I know there is loads but which ones really infuriate you?

Oh and another one is Harvey Norman. FFS......

I'm assuming I know who Ben Dunne is, googling for Jackie Skelly returns a list of gyms. Is Ben Dunne running a gym these days?

(obviously I haven't heard these ads on the radio)

Between Ben Dunne, Harvey Norman and Daft Dave, I'm half the man I was four years ago.

Yes but I want the masses to have their opinion heard (or seen) on both tv and radio adds. This is an important issue!;)

Oh and yes you must not listen to the radio very often OR these adds are only on Dublin stations - but he does own a gym (in fact several as he boasts on his adds) but he always has a go at Jackie Skelly. Initially it was humourous, now its just head wrecking and this seems to be a source of conflict.

Look, there's a perfectly good thread already in Radio, post there. There's really no point in this thread diverting traffic away from Radio imho.
