When the mute button has to be used?

[Husty]

Dont blame her. I am same when they also show the Double glazing one, where the comedian guy screams out BUY ONE GET ONE FREE and shouts like a crazed man....do pass on my condolences to the wife next time that friggin tenor is on

Detest the go compare ones but rather oddly i love the BOGOF ones!

(1) Whenever they play that truly horrendous and embarrassing bouncy version of Sussex By The Sea after games at Withdean. Luckily I think they only do it when we win so we don't get to hear it much. I bet the away fans wonder what the hell is going on.

(2) Whenever any adverts for 118 services pop up on the radio, no matter which one

(3) When these cackling harridans are on screen:

Actually, in the case of the last one, it's not so much the Mute button, as the Off button, come to think of it.

Oooh, and Iceland adverts featuring Jason Donovan and a non-specific Nolan. If ever there was a sign that your televisual career has been consigned to the bottom of the toilet pan and your dignity flushed away like a particularly smooth turd, hawking mini chicken kievs, salmon & prawn roulades and frozen profiteroles to the underclasses is surely it.

whenever Nasser Hussain is commentating!

For me its when that goddam annoying Go-compare friggin advert comes on, with the twirly moustached pavarotti figure...grrrr

A friend of mine knows the husband & wife team that wrote that advert [or so he tells me] - as well as this they penned 'Sheila's Wheels' and the Direct Line one.

Apparently they're highly academic, very intelligent and intellectual people. And, I would imagine, absolutely f*cking ROLLING in it.

When I was a young lad I'd be watching a smutty film with the sound turned down low cos my parents were in the next room. Everytime the ad breaks came on, I guarentee you'd get that WHOOOOOOAAAAHHH BODYFOOORRRRMMMM, BODYFORM FOR YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU commercial for vampires teabags come on at full pelt, creating a mad panic of rustling sheets as I desperately rummaged for the remote control.

Alan Brazil on Talksport. I don't mind a Scottish accent, but his voice just grates. Same with Darren Gough on Talksport, talks such a load of crap as well.

 

[brakespear]

If I could have a selective mute on my radio just to filter out Alan Green that would be fine.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

That Go Compare one is up there with the Dell one with the men in the factory singing "Lollypop, lollypop, ooh lollypop..." for total and utter tediocrity.

Yup, those two. Will boycott their products til they stop broadcasting that shit. Oh, and the Sheila's Wheels ad is equally pathetic. I don't believe for a second that it works. Or if it does, it only works with special people.

 

[Cian]

Toolstation ad, only seems to be on the cheaper satellite channels. Its seems to be an Argos for hardware, but the ad makes it out to be some mad wacky fun-house. Where I want to kill everyone.

 

[Voice of Reason]

No they dont, I purposely would avoid a product when the advert totally pissses me off

Wot he said!

And, of course, Sky Plus gives you the pause button so you don't need to watch them at all.
