The ad with the guy cooking " mams lamb" while listening to a tape of his ( dead I assume) mother.......its so bad I dont even know what its supposed to be pushing

When he plays the tape backwards does he hear Mam telling him to murder that hussey who stole him from her?

That sight savers ad should be banned begging for money at this time when people are out of work etc. It's also too bloody long.

I actually pointed out to my dad how long that add is and pondered: how many people have to send in there 2 euro a month to just pay for the airtime of the ad? It's a real possibility that your 2 euro's isn't saving a childs sight, instead its paying for airtime of an ad you didn't want to see in the first place.

The Trocaire as saying your love will save a child. It sounds nicer than saying give us your money.

God I hate that one. It's trite to say the least. And I'm sure I recognise the voiceover, but can't for the life of me remember who it is.

The new m&m ad is horrible. “I’m going to eat you alive right now” what demented depraved mind came up with that. Stuff of nightmares. Guess Scott finally got sick of coming home early.

Immersive advertising in General. Lidl's women in sport promo being the latest...
- billboards
- in-app
- telly

Good cause but enough to make ya turn off out of sheer brainwashing.

opel ad for the crosslander I think, family going on different outing, no more this no more that followed by well maybe tomorrow. Really bad ad, why not just have the car drive around the country side.

Is that the one with the voiceover "Every time this child blanks... Every blank hurts... 50 blanks gets you this chequebook and pen..."?

Not it's been mentioned but that new SuperValu ad drives me insane

Pussyhands

Just wondering if the guy from the Connacht Gold butter ad is the same "granddad" in the supervalu christmas advert?

madmaggie

The chewing gum and with the couple on the sofa. Wasn't she a zombie in a previous ad?

Pussyhands

That sexual assault ad in the park.

"Just admiring the view"

Then he steps in and puts his hand on his hip...then the woman scurrying away and the lad a few steps behind.

Stop excusing sexual violence they say...so what's the auld lad gonna do exactly?

That's the magic of Wrigley's Extra.

Just saw an ad for Sunday World.

I'd like to congratulate the ad makers for making a parody of Sunday World while at the same time, being an ad for Sunday World.

That tag line really annoys me. “Stop excusing sexual violence” oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t realise anyone was.

I'd say a good 50% of people who are happily married from the 70s or 80s would have started out with sexual violence by todays standards!

Don't think walking up to.a woman in a park and touching her up making her run away has often resulted in marriage all the same.

What is with an m&ms bar? Hmm, do I want a bar? No, I'll have some sweets instead, I prefer them. Well how about putting those sweets.......IN A BAR!

Nuts and gum, together at last. Now with 70% more eating things alive.

Don't like the new carbon monoxide canary ad, in his house with I assume his teenage daughter.
The other ads I didn't mind so much.

I was surprised that the word "Poxy" featured in it, but apart from that, as a Banjo player myself, I'm a fan.

Will be giving out about this on the Joe Duffy show this afternoon.

Edit, apparently it was yesterday, sorry

The use of the word 'poxy' and the humorous approach to carbon monoxide poisoning. Despite it raising awareness and catching the attention of someone who might otherwise have died had they not bought a detector.

The usual morally outraged Mary types who call into Joe Duffy.

I love the Carbon monoxide ads. They're silly but catchy. I always think if it when checking the alarm. I can't believe anyone finds it offensive!

I was ( for my sins) listening to Joe Duffy yesterday......still don't get what the whinging/ bitching was actually about??? The first time I saw that ad I went & tested the co2 alarm---- which was the whole point of the ad ....so IMO that ad is a winner

Just seen the new covid 19 advert, don't know what to make of it or how effective it will be
