Eynsham Red Mar 2022 4:55pm, 31 Mar 2022 8,608 posts	Quote Pin Eynsham Red Just adverts. Don’t care for who or what, they are all really annoying. AND, the sound is always louder for adverts than the programmes they interrupt. 🙏 that the BBC doesn’t have to resort to adverts. Their programme promotions are bad enough! That is all. Except the News telling me what they are going to tell me later on in the news! That might be all!
Fields Mar 2022 5:24pm, 31 Mar 2022 3,791 posts	Quote Pin Fields I fast forward all adverts as most of what I watch is films I’ve recorded. When I do see an advert it tends to be at half time when watching a live rugby game and I feel a little victimised by the assumptions of the advertisers as they’re mainly about erectile dysfunction

The current AA one makes me smile as their doggy mascot is reminiscent of our resident ted, Junior Bear. And so we call him Junior Dog (we're imaginative like that...)]
Surrey Phil Apr 2022 1:19pm, 2 Apr 2022 8,164 posts	Quote Pin Surrey Phil My treatment for prostate cancer in the autumn left me like that. While recovering, every advert seemed to be cancer related or for Numan. It was like something out of Minority Report where the ads were talking to you.
