Which is the UK TV advert that really gets your goat?

Some possible contenders

1. Picture the Loan (Chris with wife videoing)

2. Picture the Loan (Tess "Josh, Dad's found yer scoo'er")

3. Injurylawyers4u (bloke on lie detector)

4. Injurylawyers4u (bird boxing)

5. Admiral (starting with adult bawling)

There's probably loads more. It most likely works the other

way round too. For example I like the Gospel Singers in the

U-Switch ads but that probs gets up some peoples nosses.

    halifax advert. They get ugly people to dance and sing a classic song and avoid copyright sueing by throwing in words like 'loan' 'legal' and 'finance.' They suck...

    The touch and fresh advert.

    The one were the little boy is sat on the toilet and and creates a smell. Reaching for the touch and fresh and realising there is none he put a note under the door for his mum to get some more. Not only is this advert disgusting but so so so so annoying. Like a little boy would be heartbroken because there`s no air freshener. YE RIGHT !

    1) Baby weewee (what sort of child wants a toy that wees)

    2) bogof (that windows one i forgot its name

    3) all of the halifax ones with the singing bald man

    4) every single toy advert there is

    5) all of the ones which mostly come up for bank loans where they show fake interviews where old people look into the camera and are forced to smile and talk.

    6) any other adverts there are,

    i think sky should make a new service with no ads in, id pay so much for that.

    I hate all insurance/loan/lawyer/cosmetics ads. I really think the new Ginsters pasty ad with the guy stealing everything is terrible it makes me mad every time it comes on.
