Not an advert as such, but the trailer for the show with Mark Wright, His brother and his dad. Does my nut in that they assume I'm interested in him or his family. Famous for fuck all but being on telly.
Passive aggressive adverts telling us we are pronouncing the name wrong. Hyundai and Skoda at the moment. Bad luck chaps, our accent is different. You should have learned from IKEA who did similar and got nowhere…
This. Especially with Hyundai. They 100% pronounced it the old way for years on their advertisements. Why not say “we’ve decided to pronounce it…”? instead of telling people they’re pronouncing it wrong.
Nestles, as in the Nestles milky bar kid advert when I grew up, then suddenly it's Nest-lay.
It's just a collection of insane clips strung together by a Spanish voiceover, which thank fuck I can vaguely understand, or else I would feel like I'm having some sort of stroke. The weirdest clips I remember is a woman in full motocross gear with one tit out breastfeeding and some weird mindbending piano
On writing this I've discovered it's cut down from a half spanish/half english advert which has slightly more continuity, but is equally insane

Robinson ad is awful. Choir gurgling with the drink, who does that with anything other than water or mouthwash? Girl in the choir singing this girl is on fire, can’t see the relevance of that and it’s been used multiple times before and then final tagline is Get Thirsty! No idea what that means either really. Shocking ad.

Sorry thats the advert I mistook for the Listerine advert, shows how ineffective it is if you cant remember the product, and makes even less sense.
Any of them that have a breathy teenage girl doing a slow, weak, shitty version of an old song in the background.
Virtually all perfume/aftershave adverts.
As a side note to your post, it’s amazing how many great old rock and pop songs are used in all manner of ads. Of course they are much appreciated and spotted straight away by us oldies but most youngsters will not know the songs at all and I guess they’ll think they are something new.

I have a quiet smile to myself. 😏
Yes - even some of the obscure rockabilly/do-wop/(proper)RnB songs that I listen to get an outing now and then, SoundAs.
Volvo adverts, they usually come on just before the opening credits for any series you download on sky. “Incredible stories start with feeling safe, Volvo”. No they don’t, they’re the worst stories, most good stories start with a pint which reduces safety after two or three.

Six years since it’s been on but it’s still traumatising to think about.
