For me the best/funniest one was banned - it was advertising some sort of breath freshener (can't remember which). I always referred to it as the 'Dog Breath Advert' - the guy looks like he's about to vomit and a slimey snarling dog comes out of his mouth!! It was really funny, but apparently it made people sick!! Some people are just toooo sensitive. K x |

My favourite has got to be the KFC advert where mum, dad and son on couch, you know the '@SLAPHEAD ONE'. |

There's a new one out for toddlers pull-up nappies with Joe Pasquale doing the voice over - it's quite cute. |

The dancing car always reminds me of my 19 year old son - he does dance like that!! I used to like the Fosters adverts - Drink Australian, Think Australian. |

My favourite ad is one from a few years back. I can't remember what the product was, but the ad featured a legion of Roman soldiers marching through the British countryside in the rain, while the Centurion shouted out 'Sinister, dexter, sinister dexter ...' (Latin for 'left, right, left, right ...'). They were all out of step, then suddenly they were all drinking some sort of beer from cans. Afterwards, they tried the marching again, this time singing (as per the US Marines) 'Ven-i, vid-i, vic-e ...'. Don't know why, but that's always appealed.(My husband thinks I'm Boadicea revived, thanks to the way I drive. Shame he took the scythes off the wheels of my Escort!) The ads I find myself singing along to have changed over the years, but they all feature the 1960's Mungo Jerry song 'In the Summertime'. I've also been known to dance about while doing the housework (That's why it's not properly done!) to the theme tune for televised cricket. Don't know what it's called, but it's some sort of Samba. Just as well nobody can see me. CB >|< |

I love James Nesbitt Dave. Not sure whether it's that lovely Irish accent, the twinkley green eyes or the fact that he's a damn fine actor. Probably all 3! lol Been watching the new series of Murphy's Law. It's brilliant! |
