Iceland TV advert.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who's getting urined off at the annoying Iceland advert being shown for most of every ad break on every commercial tv channel!

Wouldn't be so bad if half of their food tasted better than the box it came in! (And I do get stuff from Iceland tho)

  • I don't buy anything there (I don't buy frozen food in general, really) but I do find their adverts really annoying. And I am a mam. :)
    too foreign for diplomatic or PC answers, too poor for a sig
  • Some of the mums look tasteier than the crap food they serve.

    Agree with Gerrard.

    I am not interested in their food or Jason, but some of the Can-Can dancers....

    Yum-yum.

    Say what you will about Iceland, but they were the first ones to sell conveniently packaged "party food". Guess what? everyone is now copying them, including M&S and Waitrose.
    What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?
  • It is an absolutely shocking advert. Can't remember the last time I bought something from Iceland that wasn't chocolate fingers or pringles.

    I generally avoid places where all the Mums go anyway, so the ad isnt helping. ;)

    I do confess to chanting out the theme with peak volume at Jason Donovan the other week, as he was appearing in the Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds tour. (I dont think he saw the funny side though;))

    If anything is going to stop me shopping at Iceland, its the thought of Jason Donovan endorsing it. :D
