Favourie/irritating adverts
Having just being reminded about this by Flogger, my children are now running around the house saying "Charley says".....

The one about them stupid sunglasses, "European style" 
Also some of the ones on Shaw's channel selection page are pretty damn irritating.
My favorite one would have to be the Staples one, "Its the most wonderful time of the year"

Re: Favourie/irritating adverts
My favorite at the moment would have to be the Cadbury's advert with the 2 kids and the scary eyebrows 
kinda freaky, but funny too

Re: Favourie/irritating adverts
my three worst have been mentioned, Slap Chop, HD vision wrap arounds and the kids with the eyebrows.
From last year its the Peptobismol Lady.
Any advert that has the participants nodding (ie the Tresemme (sp?) guy with the ultra white teeth ) has me twitching.
Favourite one by a mile is this one (you have to watch this) and possibly my favourite of all time is this one from Heineken

(sorry its the foreign version - my dial up connection is especially slow today and I am not waiting 5 weeks to trawl through you tube for the English language version)!

Re: Favourie/irritating adverts
Unsurprisingly, I find them all intensely irritating. Oh, now and again there's one which causes a twitch of mirth the first time it's on, but then it will be rebroadcast ad nauseam just like the rest of the shit.

Re: Favourie/irritating adverts
I currently hate that car insurance advert
"You don't drive like her ... " with that manic woman bouncing back and forth in her seat - agghhh - and then they always play it twice in a row ...
