    What's your favourite and least favourite TV ads on TV PRESENTLY?

    Mine is the Boots No.7 add with that cute girl and 1940's type music where she seemlessly changes from scene to scene.

    My least favourite because it's so cringeworthy is that ad for 'Magicool' cooling spray. It's not on all that often but by god it's tacky!

    That is a decent ad (the Boots one)

    Least favorite -
    Ad's for "Always" pantyliners can't stand those ad's and a certain frog

    I can't even think of a TV add.
    That's how good I am at channel-surfing during "the break".

    fav. ad was probably that one where Gaza cries when he tries to steal Lineker's crisps, that was a classic

    my most hated one is have any of you seen the Monarch mobility scooter ad that used to be shown during the Countdown ads? that one does my head in

    The best ones at the moment are the Vodafone ones - a few have made me laugh out loud.
    The worst have to be ANY ringtone ad......

    That ad for the 3 telephone network, with the two Chinese girls and the singing cherry, is really weird.
