Annoying adverts
For me the most annoying advert on the tele at the mo is the Larios Loop ad set in a club, with a woman meowing the music (well almost). What ads annoy you most?

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.

i dont no about any of you -or is it just me being miserable?, but i absolutely cant stand any insurance ads because they practically get aired every commercial break and are sooooo patronising especially the {picture loan one}!! i find it so unbelievable - i mean do the people that come up with these adverts think that us brits cant see poor acting staring us in the face or what!! sorry i do apologise rant over!!
