Not sure about the dancing at the end though!

The latest meerkat one...
'I'm looking for a mr steve smith'

Some of the adverts from Japan aren't bad-

I like the Weetabix one with the dog

"Get in down you Boy"

MOst recent ads are rubbish compared to the stuff from about 20 years ago:

(I bet he drinks) Carling Black Label

Rutger Hauer in the Guiness adds

The Bombadier one with Rik Mayall.

The Carling Black Label adverts from the '80s were comic genius. They don't make hilarious ads like they used to...well not that I've seen, although admittedly I don't watch loads of TV.

The adverts I tend to see now are....well on the radio.

There are two particularly:

The cravendale ad with the cats with opposable thumbs (the TV ad is the same but not as funny) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6CcxJQq1x8

and there used to be an ad for Mr Green, a online casino which were very funny. - https://www.youtube.com/user/mrgreencasino

Tend to watch stuff on the Sky+ and whizz through the adverts most of the time. Can't think of any I particularly like at the moment (though the Meerkats are always brilliant). I can only think of the ones that annoy me the most. Both the old and the new Wonga dot com adverts especially - those pensioner puppets are even creepier than the Dolmio ones. Shudder.

Welcome to the forum Doubleagent73

I love the Meerkat adverts.......I think THIS ONE is the funniest, so far.

I think the ING ads are great.

The WORST advert currently, and IMHO a contender for WORST EVER advert, has to be the Haribo Super Mix commercial ("Squidgy! Squidgy baby!"). It does dangerous things to my blood pressure whenever it comes on! Aaarghh!!! See it on YouTube here.

I hate that one too. You could start a new thread for Worst Adverts Ever.

As to funny ads, I used to like the old Renault "Papa and Nicole" ones.

Out of the current lot, the Pepsi Max one with the guys in the office, wearing masks, makes me chuckle.

Also love the Specsavers one with Postman Pat leaving a trail of destruction through the village.

Also like the Fosters ads with those two Aussie beach bums giving advice to blokes.

First one was the best, giving advice to that guy who was asked to rub sun cream on his mate.

Best advert for me I think it was the John West advert where he kicks the bear in the nuts, I've been chuckling to myself about it just writing it!
