The AIB mortgage ad where the kid has just moved into the area and asks about a paper round. Nice, simple ad and a great bit at the end.

Ugh hate those ads, way too much air time aswell.

There's always one...

Here's probably the most famous Cadbury's Flake ad. It almost certainly wouldn't be made - and probably wouldn't even be thought of - in this day and age.

That An Post parcel delivery with the girly postie delivering the glittery dustball thing.

Makes me smile every time!

This is a good ad.
Obviously a very depressing and disturbing reality.

Why are those women blocking their progress to the emergency.
Surely they know they could just wait until their return & bang it out then?!

(I may be expecting too much from the writers there)

One ad that does hit me in the feels is the Lloyds Bank 250 anniversary ad...

It's a good ad for sure

Naid23 · 10-02-2016 12:23PM

that donegal catch one posted a few back still gets me good. Very good ad.

Atlantic Dawn · 10-02-2016 12:29PM

The KBC Bank ad, great song choice and upbeat ad...

Quite like the Mickey D's ad where he thinks he is gonna get laid

764dak · 21-06-2016 11:05PM

This ad was actually banned on TV.

And here's why:

What is the world coming to?

Meanwhile, it seems that no-one has brought up the Reebok belly ad yet. Another one they probably wouldn't make these days...

Colour is off on some of these but they're not half-bad.

Honda - "The Power of Dreams"

Rorok · 16-07-2016 09:58PM

It's an American shop but I still love it

Go Harvey Go · 26-07-2016 08:34PM

The RSA will probably never make a drink-driving ad like this one:

No cars, no bad acting, no cheap filming techniques like fading out the colour. And it really hammers the point home.

HeidiHeidi · 27-07-2016 09:22PM

I dunno..... this one packs a fair punch for me

That line "It's very ironic. Drink driving did this to me, and now I look drunk all the time" is haunting.

Go Harvey Go · 31-07-2016 02:15PM

I've never played any of the Ratchet and Clank games - but I've always liked the ads.

Rorok · 31-07-2016 03:28PM

The games were good too though

donkeykong5 · 31-07-2016 03:49PM

The kola bear hijacking the cushelle toilet paper van . Best advert at present.

BettePorter · 31-07-2016 10:59PM

I know its ancient but I love the aldi barbecue advert. I love the way its played by the guy sitting in the smoke and the face of the guy who's being asked to move up. Its so Irish its true!
