Best and Worst Adverts and why?

I'm shocked and surprised. I mean just who the hell is Barry Scott? The Creator? I really have to turn over when he's on.

I mention the Coldseal Ad is it's on the Peli Breif video and I was watching it last night.

Sorry to break it to everyone, but brace yourself...

Dun-dun-durrr! He's not really called Barry Scott!

He's an actor called Neil Burgess who's also appeared in a Brian McFadden video - and here's the proof. Apparently they decided Barry Scott was a trustworthy sounding name suitable for their product launch.

Yes they wanted, "Gavin Scott", but I wouldn't allow it.

You don't get rust off a rubber hosepipe. The whole thing is ludicrous.

Those Safestyle windows ones. Give me a headache, with all the shouting.

Ditto.. I have to mute them adverts as they make me feel angry.

The Orange adverts are the best by miles. My favourite is the one when the guys go on a boat to speak to Wise Man and they ask him what deals they should be doing. Then one of the guys knocks the Wise Man off the boat by accident without knowing it, and he says "Where'd he go? Vanished! Like a wrinkly ninja!".

The Darth one shown at cinemas is also brilliant.

Wierdest ad at the moment has to be those chinese people opening glowing bottles that play music (i.e..have you seen her). Similar to the one where the girl eats a cherry and screams to If You Leave Me Now. Is it for 3 Mobile or something?

Yeah, it is for 3 with the catchphrase "We love music". I was really confused when I seen that glowing bottles advert, and still don't get it! I'll need to see it a few more times to understand it.

The Scottish Gas / British Gas one is currently getting on my tits, its a wee blue flame going:

"We decided to switch from Scottish Gas just because of er... monetary reasons really... A salesman called from another company... and er... they weren't that much cheaper than Scottish Gas's and um we felt treated like a number so we came back to Scottish gas!!!!!! !!! "

Its so meaningless and simply implies that Scottish Gas is expensive!

Lol!

It just played here and I was thinking the same thing.

"We didn't find the bills that much cheaper than Scottish Gas".

But they were cheaper?

"We didn't think the service was as good".

Did the gas come out your pipe or not? There's not much more "service" you can expect than that.

What a worthless testimonial!

Best: The Barclaycard ads with Jennifer Saunders, hope there are more of them

Worst: Admiral Insurance with the worst pretend crying I've ever witnessed on screen.

In heavy rotation during the cricket coverage, and consequently doing my nut in are:

1) The germoloids advert. The bloke in the theatre with the itchy arse, goes for a quick spray, and comes back with a big smile on his face. Worrying.

2) Jack and Tom, identical twins, who have identical accidents, and sadly, don't both identically end up in hospital and not on the bleedin' rest of the advert.

3) Privilege. You don't have to be posh to be Privileged - yes, I know... after the 18,000th airing...
