The Pure Cremation one with some woman gushing about their "beautiful crematorium" and how they were the perfect choice when planning her mum's funeral. I've never seen someone look so happy discussing a family member's death. And then at the very end - PLOT TWIST - her mum's actually still alive and they're sitting down to enjoy a glass of bubbly together.

Beyond tasteless, and as someone who actually lost my mum not too long ago it makes me want to put my foot through the screen.

That bloody Virgin Media one with the young girl rapper. It’s just shit!
"Dis wuns fer me Dad!" Awful :(

As for Mrs Parsleybox - theres her making moon-eyes at Derek LOL - but she does come up with an absolute brainwave though.
Get a guest for supper and "Just cook TWO!" Well I never! Why didn't I think of that eh??? ;)

Johnny Depps new SAUSAGE perfume ad.
He plays an electric guitar badly in the desert to wolves (with no electricity?). Pure pretentious, wanky, self indulgent crap

The ruby magnum advert oh my fucking lord it’s on about 89 times a day and it’s shite.

I record the old TOWIE episodes on itvb, to watch the next morning and there’s a Love Honey ad every time.... not only is it cringefest 3000 but there’s a black thong and suspender clad bum at one point, with big visible hairs poking out on the right hand side. 🤢🤭

There is a radio ad that is still stuck in my head 14 years down the line. It is really unfortunate as it just drifts into my head every now and then...

Give a Garmin.

Give a give a give a Garmin.

Sang like a christmas song.

The ad with Davina McCall & Amanda Holden; why do we need to see Amanda eating noodles badly for so much of that ad, and then the silly mare is using a shoe as a phone?! Wut.

I think my least favourite of all time is IKEA "Chuck Out Your Chintz." It was of course incredibly successful as an advert but it led to British homes looking sterile and unfriendly, and promoted an attitude of everything being disposable. As well as portraying the idea that furniture you don't like is a form of oppression and buying consumer goods is striking a blow for women's rights

It's been mentioned a few times but that Galbani one puts me off watching Come Dine With Me 😂😂😂

The one where the scouser is going "GALABANARRRRRRNIIII" 💀

I'm scouse and I don't claim her.

Pretty much all of them. I remember when you used to get some really creative, funny ads but now it seems adverts are All Men Are Stupid/All Women Are Smug, shouting at me, or have some sort of right-on agenda to clobber me with. I avoid them as much as humanly possible.

The incontinence knickers ad. 'Wooosh!' and all that palaver. And the bit that REALLY grinds my gears is when the woman states at the end, that incontinence is '........completely normal'. 🤬 Noooo! Its NOT completely normal!!! Very common? Yes. But its NOT normal. We were not designed to p1$$ ourselves.

Saw an ad last night for Thortful cards. Some weird couple making screeching animal noises at eachother. Hideous.

ETA: Sorry, just seen that it's been mentioned recently. Haven't been on this thread for a while but I had to make an exception for this abomination.

The Asda ad is utter bollocks, I genuinely thought it was a wind up the first time I saw it. Imagine somebody has actually pitched that as a positive way of representing a brand.

You literally cannot escape that advert or the We Buy Any Car ad with Phillip Smugfield.

When I watch anything on Drama channel (I like old BBC crime stuff) there is constantly an ad for over 50s dating and and it is just so bad I cringe if I catch a second of it.
Oh that advert is cringe. Especially the bearded white haired bloke waffling & looking misty eyed. Nope. Rather be single! 😬

I HATE the Mr Kipling ad, where the sweet little boy brings the cake home from the party, to his little bee-atch of a sister, who tells him to 'get out!' of her room. She, specifically, makes my blood boil. Poor little boy.

PS slight exaggeration.
If that was me, after the sister snaps “get out” I would have responded “I was going to leave you this cake that I got you from that party but I’m not going to bother now“ and purposely ate it in front of her
