Good to see that Eat Balanced advert saying eat meat and dairy for a balanced diet.

A shining light in the dark world of vegan ads.

I'm still liking Tukker the dog on the AA advert.

Same here,mainly because our dog is absolutely fascinated by it.

They've missed off beer, haven't they? Definitely part of a balanced diet. I had my eyes opened to the quality of canned craft pale ales after my grandson bought me a selection for Xmas.

I'm loving that Laithwaite's wine cellar feeling advert. The mix of people cringing and laughing their arses off is excellent. The first woman that does a Kenneth Williams "oooh" face as she's coming back with the wine cracks me up.

Loving the music from the Homebase dream kitchens ads.

It's a real earworm.

I usually detest plinky-plonky cover versions of classics used on some adverts.. but

Love the Everly Brothers cover of "All I have to do is dream" on the EasyJet ads

By a singer songwriter called Cat Power. Been knocking around since 1992 but never heard of her.

Nice version.

The An Officer and a Gentleman one for Ideal Boilers. Mainly for West Brom's boiler mascot.

i like that advert with the guy shouting at a zoom type meeting thinking he's being ignored only to realise that he's on mute

The Heineken 0.0

Probably tastes like fermented sock, but the ad made me chuckle.

As far as alcohol free beers go, it's probably one of the most palatable.

The Haven Holidays ad with the little lad barrelling along the beach in a horse drawn chariot to the original version of "Swords of a 1000 men".

I like the Safer gambling 'Bet Regret - Tap out' ad with the angry wrestler who ambushes his next door neighbour having a crafty flutter in his back yard.

In the opening shot, the big dude is pegging out women's underwear on his washing line.

Its also an ad from a genuine gambling aware charity too, so fair play. Opposed to Paddy Power, SkyBet or Coral ad's pretending they give a single flying fuck about people gambling too much.

'Mama don't want no greasy fat from no cookin' oil,
Mama don't want no fat on food from no cookin' oil,

Mama likes a nice cod piece,
That does not swim in grease!

Mama does a mean drum-stick,
Without no oil slick!

Mama preaches that it's great,
'Cos it's low in saturates!

B'cos with crisp 'n' dry,
The food stays crisp and dry!'

Nationwide has a new ad coming up during the Euros, it was filmed at the local football club my lad played for and one of my nephews is in the final shot.

Like that new Matalan ad where the mum is applying what she thinks is sun cream to her kids shoulders while day dreaming.

“Can you smell mayonnaise?!”

It's Mrs Spion's favourite of the Christmas adverts so far.

I like it too. 😀

I like the Just Eat ads, but mainly because of the songs. The Snoop one was great and this new jam with Katy Perry is catchy too.

The Smarty Mobile one where a fella tries to buy some potatoes from a stall, but doesn't have the relevant Crypto currency. The exchange between them has me in stitches. “Crypto for potatoes?” “And onions”
