    Does anyone remember the john west salmon advert where the man fights the bear for the salmon.

    Best advert ever. Such a simple message and very funny.

    That was in the running for my 2nd choice - fab! :rotfl:

    I HATE the "I am going to do a poo at Paul's" :mad: usually I comment "well :silenced: off then and stop putting me off my food!" - can't imagine how pooer Paul feels :rotfl: (and just like all the other germ and toilet humour ads usually on when we are eating dinner and associated with some cop shop on ITV1).
    Failure is only someone elses judgement.
    Without change there would be no butterflies.
    If its important to you, you'll find a way - if not, you'll find an excuse ! ~ Easy to say when you take money out of the equation!

    "Clever you, clever Centrum" -partronising!

    "The last puff smells as good as the first" - what?

    "I want to do a poo in paul's bathroom" - okay...then...

    "An international company giving you a local feel" - some stairlift company I think, some random guy obviously reading the quote

    "Where you position it could be quote important!" - I told my girlfriend this lol - they changed it now to make the man look stupid but here is the original

    "Bazuka that vercua, bezuca that-wart" - I noticed they changed the intonation now on the advert, funny, cos the first version was very annoying

    "Because I used New sensitive leno!!r" - the first version of the advert sounded very sarcastic, the second one not so.

    I want a link to the razor/bush one!!

    "Bring on the trumpets!!" -classic

    I also like the t-mobile dancing adverts - are they real? Did anybody take part in that and was it spontaneous or was it done at midnight or something with pre-arranged people?

    Anything that says "the perfect gift" everyone's favourite, etc. Theyre lying.

    I love the new Robinsons ad, where the birds come home and act like humans.
