Speaking of ads used in others countries before. That Old El Paso ad from the US, with the kids playing Mario tennis on an N64... not only is that advert years old, but they haven't even bothered to do a good job converting the video, it skips frames every couple of seconds.
That Glade battery powered advert. I mean, you're telling me that guy's got a massive house but hasn't got a plug near the landing anywhere? Just as bad is that "puff" advert, where it released "puffs". That gender-indeterminate child annoys me.
Then there's that Norwich Union Direct car insurance advert (think it's them) with that guy who used to be in the Royal Family. Goes on about his no claims bonus even though he claimed for loads of things in the advert previous to that one. If they're going to set up a character for an advert, at least have some continuity. He needs to get a proper acting job pronto.
