    Anusol ad.

    They use tuba music in the background which they have deliberately made to sound like a bum farting :rolleyes:

    The ad for the washing pods where your one Vogue? (Who the f*ck names their kid Vogue) goes on about the click noise and keeping her kid safe. She has about as much charisma as a steaming pile of manure.

    Who the fcuk names their kid Theo?
    Poor little bastard.

    That's a different show-Diff'rent Strokes.

    Probably one of the most 'cursed' TV shows outside of Glee.

    It tells you all you need to know about modern parenting, that they need to air an ad warning people to keep liquid tabs out of the reach of children.

    Last week, I found a chip on my windscreen and found myself acting exactly like the fella in that ad. Accurate portrayal if nothing else :D

    I've to change the channel when the Vodafone dancing kid comes on, i hate it sooo much & i thought it couldn't get much worse than the Dermot Bannon Vodafone one, but they've surpassed themselves

    What is the craic with the IKEA and with the tortoise and the hare? Or am I too thick to understand it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,943 ✭✭✭✭the purple tin


    Strongbow have an ad showing lots of young ones crammed together in the park, on the train, in the pub drinking their pissy cider.
    In small print at the bottom it says -filmed pre-covid, socialise responsibly.-

    How about not showing the bleedin ad that would be responsible of YOU :mad:

    Those IKEA ads make absolutely no sense. I think the writers take a load of hallucinogens to come up with them.

    I'm allergic to Dermot Bannon, can't reach for the remote fast enough if I see / hear him on tv.

    The most annoying bit for me, in the dancing kid ad, is the voiceover. That voice is irritating.

    It could have been worse....could have been the news that Aunt Viv was coming to stay.

    For a month. :D

    The Vodafone ad.

    Two rules for children with or without talent.

    The talent has to be exceptional or the talent has to be done as a laugh.

    Unfortunately it comes across as if he is exceptional, when it should be done as a laugh.

    Brutal post to this thread.

    Accurate. It feels like it should be comedic, but 'subverts expectations'.*

    Been watching a fair bit of Tour de France on ITV4 over the last 10 day. Life insurance ads, over 55s funneral cover, equity release scams and cat lotterys are making the ads for three mobile & vodafone seem like oscar winning productions and bareable

    In the new COVID ads on the radio and television there’s a man with a soothing yet annoying and familiar Munster accent. Any idea who is doing the voice over?

    Get me his address so I can go and choke the fcuker, soothing my arse. I’d love to have my hinds around his windpipe, washed or not...

    He is one of the teachers from RTÉ's home school hub, he is also Martin from Martin's Shed on RTÉ2. He's ten times better than the previous voice over too cool for school guy.

    That’s the one. Muineteoir Ray. Knew that voice sent shivers down my spine reminding me off home schooling

    Its not a TV advert but there is an advert on the Dublin radio stations(4FM,Sunshine,Q102,FM104 etc) with Imelda May and it absolutely does my nut in. Its a tourism advert for Dublin. Not sure if its her accent or what it is but it wrecks my head.
    Can't find a link for it sorry.
