    in line with their other latest weird ads with the woman in the office who takes phone directory into the bog with an andrex roll , and the Swedish looking guy in public toilet shimmying to the sink. -I like the simple andrex adverts where someone is on the bog and the andrex puppy steals the toilet roll. - nice, simple got to the point and not weird at all.

    Different bog roll company but the Andrex ones make those Cushelle ads with the sleazy koala hiding in the women’s bathroom while ladies are using it look fun.

    Andrex now have flushable wipes which will fit in your pocket, so why the need for her to "announce" what she is about to do, with the phonebook and large roll of bog roll is beyond me.

    Why is the mother in the An Post ad on the verge of tears? Its her sons teddy, not hers. If 4 year old me, or indeed 41 year old me lost my teddy I would be very upset, but I don't think it would be a crying matter for my mother/sister/partner.

    The one with Klopp 'Trivago is my secret tactic' is daft.

    It's literally the first thing that shows up when you Google hotels, it's like saying IKEA or Amazon is my secret tactic.

    Why is Klopp in tv adverts. Surely he doesn't need the money? Some old contractual obligations?

    I notice Dulux paint are still using an Old English Sheepdog in their ads but the latest one seems to be an AI dog.

    One of our savvy posters here previously raised this point and concluded that Klopp was a 'Media Whore'', which is a common enough species of celebrity, so I'd agree with that. If you analyse it, to fit that description, you have to be able to like and admire the appearance of your own image and likeness in the public domain, outside of your normal context (in his case, in a football dugout or a matchday press event). The ad agencies obviously think this, but a certain narcissism is required for the target to make that leap. I suppose the money is good too…

    Trust me if you are a parent of an autistic child and you find that one thing that can regulate them and make them happy you are crying tears of joy.
