I think what is annoying about adverts is the way we are patronised. Yer.........OK.............we're morons.

Not a telly one, but I find the TV Licensing ones on hoardings (the "Save £1,000 next year, get a licence this year; A Licence or £1,000 fine -your choice" etc. really intimidating and offensive to anyone who HAS a licence.

I agree about the little boy on the loo,he is going to die of embarrassment as he gets older. Poor kid. He will probably develope a loo phobia.You never know how it may have affected him LOL Rose

I hate the little boy sat on the toilet with trousers down and I think he puts his fingers over his nose, Kandoo or an air freshner. I hate the adverts with the people saying that they have taken out the loans to cover everything. I love the advert with the man running after his car saying My Car My Car, but then as soon as he catches its up he runs after another one.

That Toilet Duck one, where the woman is cleaning the toilet and I'm always having my dinner when that comes on. Do we really not know how to clean a loo? I ask you. Jo

Having read and agreed with all of your comments,and added such intelligent remarks of my own as 'Yeh.thats awful' and 'Oh, Yeh,I hate that one' I have nothing to add. We have a lot of bad and often crass,insulting adverts;and why doesn't that Bl***y Halifax ship sail away and sink. The one that has me shouting at the TV like a banshi possessed,is that one that tells me what a great deal I'm getting if I save with them "An Amazing 5 percent interest" IT IS NOT AN AMAZING INTEREST IT IS A DISGUSTING INTEREST,IT IS FIVE PENNIES IN EVERY POUND WOW.i CAN REALLY DINE OUT ON THAT oH DEAR i BETTER GO AND LIE DOWN- Rose

The one for cheese strings, where a child tips his head well back and drops a cheese string down his throat - quickest way to choke to death, I bet. And what about his table manners??!!!
