Sorry if either been mentioned but:

The one with that SIA song that goes ‘show you how strong I am .. I’m unstoppable’ etc etc

Honestly just makes me cringe it’s a rit song and over used
They play this on Spotify too 'i am a Porsche with no breaks'... (Just terrible lyrics!) But there's no way I'm signing up for premium, I just mute my phone!

There's so many insurance adverts that grind my gears. Especially the one where the old wife is in the tent and says she's 50, she hasn't seen 50 for 20 years I'd say

The one with the man in his dressing gown getting a boiler delivered. The toy robot saying 'Boiler, Boiler!' Makes me rage and it's on constantly!

The ITV hub advert. I feel like I've seen that "no return" program with Sheridan Smith about a billion times and they're now doing the same with the new Ipcress Files series.

I hate all the ones where it tries an forces choices on people, that "just meat" one that was supposed to be a eat vegan take on just eat pissed me off, like if people want to go vegan that's fine by me but if people want to eat meat that's their choice

All the lotterys an give money to this an that as well, it seems to just be constant, every second add is a "people are dying an starving, give £10" like am a charatably person but if you were to actually give those amounts every month you'd be bankrupt

Gotten to the stage my neice only watches stream sites now so she can grow up without these pesky adds, by the time she's my age she probably won't even know what a add even is with some luck

I rarely watch TV live as I tend to watch programmes on catch-up platforms purely to avoid the adverts and the ridiculous trigger warnings before a programme starts. But sometimes the catch-up platforms have adverts too so there's no total escape from them unfortunately.

Thankfully its mostly disney plus, netflix an amazon she watches so since we pay for them there's been no adds as of yet

It's getting rarer an rarer for the younger generation to actually watch TV now, with being able to stream things on phones/tablets an social sites etc, I give it another 5 to 10 years an live TV will be struggling to keep up with the youngsters

Yes! No return flopped... No amount of repeating the advert with the awful 'i let my guard down' song is gonna change that! 😆

Also the amount ITV is trying to push Britbox is laughable! A documentary showing Tony Blair flicking through CD's in a shop and an old clip of the Spice girls lol
