Yes I would agree with you.

But I have not seen any of these recently whereas I've seen this stupid one a million times in the last week.

They don't make them like they used to.

Back then you got a free concert. Now you just get sprayed from a hose on a tug boat. (The recording of this ad was advertised as "come along to a free concert")

I don't know. I reckon they've spent all the lotto money on their ad budget it's on so much.

Yeah, the rainbow lottery ad and the cadbury's spots and stripes ad, I guess that is what remote controls were invented for...but then the next channel you go to is probably on ads with stupid people admiring an artificial rainbow...

^^ When you are posting a reply, click "go advanced". When there, there should be a youtube button. Click on that, (if there is anything that says [url/] just delete it)....

I like the ad, think it is better then other lotto ads.

Having said that it is on far too much for my liking.

That's my point!!!

If it was good at the beginning they've killed it now playing it every five minutes. Silly advertising peoples.

I liked it the first time it was on, I was a bit sickened it was for the lotto, seemed a bit of a waste. Now I can't stand it, even the song is going through my head the minute I hear it start *flick* on to any other other channel regardless of ads. :mad:

I hate that smug looking f*cker's face. I wouldn't mind, but switching to Meteor is hardly anything to look smug about. Give 'em a week with sh*t coverage & he'll change his tune.
