Yes! What's more annoying is the fact they use the same library sound effect on every single advert.

How about "Powered by A.I."? No, A.I. is not a feckin' power source. So many ads talk about "Powered by". EE is not a feckin' power source either, or any of the others.

A new one. Vauxhall's electric vans are powering Britain. That can't be good for their range can it?

I've taken to listening to Greatest Hits radio in the car, because they have Ken Bruce (and Porpmasssstorrr) and Simon Mayo's Drivetime show, complete with "Confessions".

But they also have adverts, and I'm. becoming increasingly irritated by Paddy bloody McGuiness and "Bookin' Geniuses". And "you can holiday laaak a fewwell".

And not Paddy bloody McGuiness, but "Everybody's talking about triple glazing!!".

No, they're not. Only in the context of your stupid advert being bloody irritating. Go away

I've just seen one for the Sky television

Some s with Turkey teeth were well impressed that their Sky television can do voice controls like a 2016 Ford Fiesta.

The current Keep Britain Tidy “Bin the Butt” advert.
Cigarette butts are the least of our problems.
What about all the fast food businesses whose customers (not all of them obviously) dump their rubbish in lay-bys and country lanes because they can’t be arsed to either take it home or find a litter bin.
Boils my piss!
Didn’t even realise Keep Britain Tidy still existed- our country is a disgrace when it comes to rubbish - some serious education needed.

Don't underestimate the disgusting environmental impact of cigarette butts.

Totally agree - smoking is a disgusting habit and cigarette butts and chewing gum are just another form of litter that needs addressing.
The message should be “don’t litter, full stop”.
You don’t see it on the continent to the same extent.

And the vile habit extends to disposable vape users who just dump their dummies on the ground when there's no more juice in them.

At least they've now been banned so we should start/stop seeing these soon. Can't understand the thought process behind them tbh, if you're gonna vape, at least get yourself something permanent and just fill it when required. Waay cheaper!

Surprised no-one has taken Vauxhall to task over their latest misleading radio ad, which on the face of it seems to be claiming that electric cars are no more expensive than their petrol equivalent, costing the same monthly payment etc.
Unless you're a complete moron, you'd realise that paying x amount per month for 4 years is not the same as paying the same amount per month for 5 years, as is the case for an electric car.
I don't know how they get away with such snake oil salesmanship, maybe they wont if the ASA get involved...

They DO say it's over an extra year,and just the monthly payment is the same. If you are too stupid to work out that's more, you shouldn't be driving!
Although considering the state of traffic, it probably applies to a lot of people
