UK TV Ads

Just spotted this new Ad' this morning - well you couldn't miss it could you?  All those twiddly bits bolted on. Standard stuff, of course - only the very end, THE VERY END - JUST LISTEN. We're used to some "techy" noise being added to the end of car adverts - normally three notes, reminding us forgetful people that vehicles are full of tech these days.  For others it's a little tune, for others some nauseating strapline or other " here to help " or " we start with you ". Citroen pull it ALL out with this Ad' First the 3-note techy thing - this blends into the sexy French voice saying  . . .  well, I don't know, because THAT was blended with a twiddly tune - ALL THREE!   Marvellous.  

Dec 17 TV Ads.  Usual car stuff.  Bit bland .  Finishing voiceover: "Built to build families". Bloody hell!  What a tech advance eh?  Keep that parked WELL AWAY from the house guys.

Strapline: Tesco Xmas TV ad. "everyone's welcome at Christmas" Useful that.

I know, I know - it takes the mickey out of itself (nice) but my god - the prices? Dominoes pepper a lot of their adverts with exclamation marks - they do this: Any size Pizza - for £9.99! Fantastic eh?  Just call it a deal - and it becomes one . . regardless of the mind-numbingly disgusting pricing.  

British Gas By god they must spend millions? Every damned evening - through multiple channels, across multiple time-slots this friendly guy and his sweet, sweet, sweet little Penguin tell us how British Gas are committed to a warm home for everyone, to reducing fuel bills; the music calming, the little sweet, sweet, sweet Penguin waddling about in a really sweet way, little expressions of sweet modesty, little messages of care, and hope, and love from this company.   Can't wait to get home to see another one, can you?
