adverts with linda barker or carol vorderman and the adverts for MacDonalds and those "quote me happy" ads. |

I totally agree with the Michael Winner ads - terrible. The one I hate the most is for some model of a Renault car - where there are loads of people waggling their behinds and the song about shakin your "a**e" Also any adverts that refer to people passing wind. Old fuddy duddy yes perhaps. Janet |

I know what you mean about the Renault ad. My little boy said it whilst at the lunch table at nursery. He has never seen it but his cousin had and that's where he picked up the line. Stunned silence response to him for the first time in his life I think. Ads are so bad that it is easier to name the ones you like. My all time favourite is the cartoon one for Maltesers ( although I would starve rather than eat them I hate them so much) where the wide mouthed frog suddenly gets a kissy pout when the wide mouthed crocodile introduces himself!

And the ones for "feminine hygiene" products - I would love to know someone who could leap around like they do whilst requiring the tampons/ pads they advertise! If they could make you feel like that I would probably buy them and shares in the company! Abigail |

I really hate the window ads, 'You buy one, get one free, I say you buy one get one free'. The fella makes my skin crawl, uuurgghhh. |

The advert with cool air in a spray can. Most of it would get sprayed into the air anyway. |
