What Does That Mean?

It means I'm about to chuck the remote at the tv. Flipping annoying advert.

What advert is giving you the pip at the moment? I rarely see adverts but sometimes it is not my choice.

[naomi24]

I record everything and fast forward through the ads. I never see any of them.

[rockyracoon]

Same as Naomi. We rarely watch anything live. Apart from the news, but that annoys me so much that I either switch it off or ignore it altogether

[Bobbisox1]

Now what but who ,when watching ITV GM withPierce and Susanna, bliddy Andi Peters, he grates on me , I mute the remote for him and Ads

[lankeela]

Any that have those stupid poems read out in a boring monotonous voice.

I think that very very nice man, that rolls up outside an old couples house with a big grin on his face, of course he's thinking of the commission he might get out of this if he can con them into proceeding. I'm sure his name is Barry? :0)

Any advert, but particularly from banks, that features people working from home but still looking after us during lockdown. I couldn't give a hoot. And the addition of the odd cat on a keyboard (or even worse some child photobombing) to give it that personal touch is also cheesy. Anyone with a cat knows they are always on laptops causing havoc.

^^ Equity release :0)

All those recent ads for hair colourants. They make it look so easy to apply and believe me, it's not!

Bobbi, // Andi Peters, he grates on me//

Apart from the political programmes and the news, I don't watch daytime television - but whenever he pops up anywhere else he grates on me too, Can't stand the man. Such a big head!

[Bobbisox1]

I usually watch ( or it’s on) ITV mon,Tuesday and Wednesday as I don’t like Ben Shepherd and he does the other two days, turn over at 09-15 to see what subjects JV has on C5, if something catches my eye I’ll stay with it, other than that, the tv gets switched off till we watch the Chase at 5

The ridiculous Old Spice ad

[Bobbisox1]

The Colegate Total where she ‘tickles ‘ a a tooth with her electric toothbrush

[Peter Pedant]

I have just turned over from Nicola Sturgeon
but she isnt an ad - - she's the real thing!

we eat Wheatsheaf - the BEST of bread!
gets my wick

//The ridiculous Old Spice ad//
irritates me as well but my doris is inexplicably drawn to it

[Bobbisox1]

I think I love your Doris ael :0)

[barry1010]

I record and fast forward all the programmes I want to watch but daytime the tv belongs to the family. Sometimes I can’t avoid the ads :( Bring back the Smash Martians and Frank Muir’s Fruit and Nut

[DarceyK123]

The silly girl who knows how to look after her body and heart but can't work out an electric toothbrush cleans better than a manual. Needs the oral b dentist to tell her.

[Canary42]

What ad is giving me the pip ? The daily Party Political Broadcast on Behalf of the Tory Party (masquerading as a "health bulletin").

It's a deliberate and cynical politicising of a world-wide tragedy (something its critics are quite freely accused of)

Thank goodness they're cutting out the weekend ones owing to dwindling audience figures.

[jazzyjen]

Teacake, I think you mean “Alan”.
How could you not think he is genuinely interested in getting the best deal for his beloved clients?
I agree it is awful along with the one where the neighbour comes around into the conservatory to bring misdelivered post from the pensioners policy company.
