I wonder if your OH was the 1000th person to have said that to him today, then I could see why they lost it, but they record all their calls for training & security purposes, i his bosses hear that show of stroppiness they are down the jobcentre

There's one on right now for, get this, A LOVE CALCULATOR!
A mobile phone rip off piece of shit. AND it's only £9 a week!!! yes a week?!
Basically you text your name with the person you fancy and it 'calculates' your compatability out of 100. Oh yes thats gonna be accurate! I bet it you text the same 2 names again it'll be different, but you wont want to 'cos of the price!

...and the stupid bint doing this fall into the 'hunks' desk at the end! Hilarious

I can't people actually buy into this shit these days--they obviously do, otherwise they wouldn't run them!

And while we're on the subject...

Anyone know if the bold-2-in-1 "getting ready" ad with the shirt dress babe has been uploaded to youtube???

She's stunning as well... a real dirty hooker look - spot on...

Hello Chestfield

No Its Tabby typing, Mrs T doesnt have time for rip-off merchants, she would hurl abuse in the only way she knows if you asked her about this

Don't you hate it when they ruin good adverts?

The Vodafone Lewis Hamilton one about chasing dreams used to be really good, then they changed the voiceover. Yes Dame Judi's a great actress but her style does not suit that advert at all. The pervious guy was great, the enthusiasm was what the ad needed.

Oh good lord, I've just seen a new ad for the Mazda2. They're obviously going for a 'pop-video' look, with lots of highly athletic beautiful people leaping about, but the tag-line?

"The new Mazda2.It's fit."

Worst ad?

I've just seen a gorilla playing the drums along to "In the air tonight" advertising dairy milk chocolate.

ITV4
WTF?

Absolutely bizarre that it's for chocolate, agreed, but until it gets to that, I think it's a fantastic bit of television!!

I don't get that Mazda 2 advert. It's like they're trying to distract you from looking at the car, which is a shame because it's rather nice. From what I've seen the new Ford Fiesta (on the same platform) might be even better though
