    I used to not like her, Winkleman I mean.

    But she's grown on me. Not in the 'secret crush way', but I can tolerate her.

    The idea of reading messages where people hate you is kind of clever. Because many others wouldn't do it because 'it would affect their brand'. (Imagine Vogue doing the same thing for that 'Liquitabs' advert).

    Let not give these ad execs too much credit. The idea is robbed from Jimmy Kimmels 'mean tweets'

    Meh, Jimmy Kimmel took it from youtube-he's not original.

    But like I said, a lot of people wouldn't do those kinds of adverts. (Vogue for example, said she developed 'anxiety' because of social media. It's all about protecting their brand).

    But I have found Winkleman interesting on other shows- just not Strictly. I hate that show.

    I had always presumed the Winkleman tweets weren't real and that ad execs just set up the accounts and tweets for the purpose of the ad. Maybe they are real but would have thought that might be a bit dodge in case those who wrote them get doxxed thus leaving the ad company liable to legal action and exposing Head and Shoulders to negative publicity.

    Tiktok ad with the horrendous remix of Mr Sandman, it is painful.


    The Voxi ad 'I am a romantic', 'I am a star baker', 'I am an international DJ'. No, you are a twat.

    The one where that toss pot Chris O'Dowd is going on about being up to his neck "in excrement and urine" I'm guessing he's talking about a baby but I couldn't care less. You're not that interesting and you're certainly not funny Mr O'Dowd.

    I can't believe they have resurrected that horrible old 'Whassap!' ad for Budweiser.
    It looks like it was filmed on a potato and all.

    This goes against the whole ethos of the thread, and I might ruffle a few feathers, but I do not despise the new Three advert with the granddad searching for the monster under the bed.

    In saying that, given Irish TV has a habit of repeating the sames ads constantly for months on end that may well change.

    The misery-covers of popular songs for ads has really gone far enough now.
    Next thing you know they will miserify Agadoo, The Hokey Cokey and Shaddup You Face etc. :rolleyes:

    Saw it on tv the other day at 5pm. I pity the mothers out there whose young daughters see it and are asking them what it is that girls have to get up there and where there is. Awkward.

    its awkward for everyone - surely it should be post-watershed only ??

    I like the stop motion animation, you hardly ever see that in ads now. The jokes in it aren't quite as funny as the makers think but Its not the worst.

    The only one that falls flat, imo is the 'we keep the good gin, throw out the rest'... I don't get it.

    It's a well produced ad. The gin one.

    The ad for tampons has been running on English stations for a while, I am fairly certain its on after the watershed 9pm onward, could be wrong.

    Some of the twitter stuff on "I was too embarrassed to talk" or "I never knew, but if that ad had been around". Don't girls talk about everything (I know a sterotype) and surely there are instruction in the packet right?

    Oh and its a really bad ad for all the other reasons.

    It's like an unfunny Wallace & Gromit. If they only spent as much on the writing.

    On the tampons, they can set up a Twitter account with their mini computer in their hand, filled with millions "how to" videos, forums where you can remain anonymous and even armed with directions on a packet, still don't get it??

    The "This is Us" An Post ad.

    Particularly the bit with the young lad going "saying yes to rules and following them".

    Stop will ya-Ireland is generally the most compliant, least rebellious country when it comes to doing what we are told.

    Nonsense.

    It comes very naturally to her. Those ads disappeared after the Nov 2018 car crash LLS Peter Casey interview, where she tried to stitch him up and it backfired. I was impressed with Chill for dropping her at the time, but now she's back, **** them.

    She has Anthrax flowing in her veins.

    Chill insurance never seem to make good adverts. Even before they got her to be involved.
