    The ad for putting on your seat belt with driver asking his mate to put his on.

    What is with the look of utter terror on the driver as he looks around to his so called friend to ask him to put his belt on. If you have to have to have that expression of fear, he ain't your friend and shouldn't be in your car. The ad is actually well made but that expression in puzzling. If one of my mates didn't have his belt on, I would say, put your belt on you dopey f*cker, as mates do.

    Those ads that do be on ITV3 for assistive bathing, could they not have at least hired someone that actually looks like they’re in need of specialised showers/baths, instead of this one who walks out with a spring in her step.

    "Hips. Bum. Heart. But how do I keep my mouth healthy"


    By brushing your teeth. Did you not learn that back when you were 4? And who the hell wonders or concerns them self with keeping their bum healthy.


    Possibly a different ad but the dentist tells her to get an electric toothbrush with a round brush head. Never in my life have I seen an electric toothbrush that didn't have a round brush head.

    The director's cut, where she goes for a colonic and has a hose shoved up her rectum as water is sprayed through it, and we see all the vegan food washed out of her colon probably wasn't as popular regarding keeping her bum healthy.

    Probably explains why they went with the toothpaste angle instead.

    Nobody loves tomatoes like Mutti.

    Seriously Francesco, it's a f*cking tomato, is it really worth risking serious facial injuries for? Also, are you in your late twenties or your late eighties?

    That Vodafone ad where yer wan is doing her family tree. Suddenly cracks appear in the wall of her living room. The only solution as we all know when your house is falling down round your ears is to schlep up into the attic to blow dust off a book.
    How much did that turd cost?


  • Registered Users Posts: 519 ✭✭✭tv3tg4


    The 55's funeral plans ones are brutal.
    The dominos ads are brutal.
    I still cannot understand the permanent TSB mortgage ones.
    The ronan O gara energia one looking at himself makes no sense.

    These two adverts I didn't really 'get' the first time I saw them.

    The PTSB one, I guess I never really paid much attention to it the first time, but the woman is sending messages and photos to a man - the viewer is supposed to think this man is her husband - but at the end of the advert it's revealed he's her mortgage broker - unless PTSB have gone down the polyamorous route.

    The Dominos one, 3 girls deciding what food to order. Another girl walks in - now I always assumed this 4th girl was the identical twin sister of one of the original girls.
    But then they've made the same advert with a family - and this time the 'dad' is the identical character - so presumably it's not a twin after all, it's supposed to be their subconscious.

    I think it's supposed to be their future selves returning to the past to warn themselves about ordering anything other than Dominos. Because leaving the house always results in some sort of disaster.

    You think a cow is defined by one gender but it's an udder.

    "Girlboss" recruitment ad for the Royal Navy with grime as the soundtrack.

    Capita got a £1Bn contract to recruit for the Royal Navy.

    The IDF had an ad with Beethoven's fifth. It didn't cost a billion sterlings.


    Despite being an abysmal failure on the Army contract
    Capita's 2017 decision to implement bespoke IT systems on a £1.3bn British Army recruiting contract led to nearly 25,000 fewer applications to join the military in the following year, new figures have revealed.

    Failure rewarded. Looks like the UK has become a Chumocracy.
