The Budweiser ad that comes on at Christmas - you know the lovely horses....the trickle of cold beer slowly sliding down the side of the glass, the fizzy bubbles, the hooves pounding through the sand and then the snow....the song in the background....it's the one and only ad I can say actually MAKES me want what it's advertising.....and straight away - gets me every time.

Although, Bulmers ads in the Summer (the ones that feature the pint bottle and glass of ice) always give me a thirst!

I'm not an alcoholic!!

I'm really not!!

I swear!!

Fantastic ad that I just saw was the new one for "Specsavers"

Its got the farmer, sheep-dog and the sheep. Farmer gets sheep for shearing and as they are sheared, the sheep are released and a "Sheepish" sheared dog follows behind..

....Farmer ..."should have gone to Specsavers".

Brilliant ad, Well done to creators. (more of this please)

Agreed.

I just love this ad because of the reference of "Two pints" in it.

i think the Cadbury's ad, Gorilla with the drums, is making serious claims to be the greatest ad ever..

What's the music that's in the Guinness Christmas ad? I've looked everywhere for it.

You beat me to it. I was just going to say that the new Cadburys "eyebrows" ad is a brilliant follow up to the gorilla drums one.

Looking forward to the next instalment already!

The Guinness ads showing the old ads over the years are interesting if rather under-whelming. I'm just waiting for them to show the dancing idiot guy from a few years back. That was probably the best of them.

That ad annoys me now. It was alright just once

Not a fan that dancing one, I always thought it was way over rated.

What I do like now is the ad for Orange I think, and theres a woman with her friend the witch from the Wizard of Oz.
