I dont like that advert at all, why do people find it so amazing. I like the advert with the people playing one note of a instrument, and it goes down the line, like each person plays a note one by one really fast. You get me.

The new Sony Walkman one :bigsmile:

It's to advertise their phones. I think. Not sure.

Love it though!

My favorite advert is the National Accident Helpline one with the fat woman falling on the floor.

Alan Carr - "The advert's funny innit? When that fat woman falls over, it's funy innit? In that reception, she don't see the puddle does she? Too busy eating, that's the trouble. She goes down like a sack of sh*t don't she? Her handbag flies in the air and a pasty comes out - no LUNCH!"

LMAO

It's a really good advert. I remember when it first aired, who knew it would have created such an interest.

I love the gorilla advert, its very clever how they have made a fake gorilla look so real. It always makes me chuckle

However, I do think this advert is the best this year:

My favourite is the Cake Skoda one, but I LOVE the one with the woman falling over. Looks like she spent the money she won on that nice new haircut.

Just out of interest, this ad (Yes another Guinness ad!) is supposedly the best one ever made:

I think that woman needs Trinny and Suzanna to sort out her fringe.
