Has anyone seen the latest advert for Lynx body spray? It's got this guy standing on a beach spraying the stuff on and hundreds of women running from the hills and sea toward him. One of the stupidest commercials I've seen for some time. 

There's one for a newspaper (can't recall which one, might be The Sun), but it's the whole "Women, don't expect any help on Sundays" thing (what with the page three girl, e.t.c, e.t.c. ).  ::)

I haven't seen it, but my bf was talking about it the other day! Said he was going to try Lynx body spray!  :P

I don't exactly hate those Boots commercials about looking your best for Christmas, I just hate that music.  It haunts me at night.  Plus the lady in the tub peeling the sprouts???  I need something more realistic for me.

Everytime I see that commerical I think it's an America's Next Top Model competition. lol

Ok. Hate the Nicole Kidman ad. It's just barmy.

Did not like the Phones4U ads at first but now they make me laugh. I just find the daftness of the hand signal and the guy who only says Yeah Yeah very funny. Along those lines, I LOVE the bank guy who tortures the customers. Nope, can't do that. Nope, can't do that. Nope, that doesn't work. Oh and give me back my pencil. He cracks me up and is much better than the bug-eyed Halifax dancing dude.

I am also digging the Young, Handsome, Suave Santa commercial to the tune of Santa Baby. Yeah, he's hot. Like his smile. Have no idea what he's selling but it's not annoying.

OMG, i HATE that one!  :o
I just keep thinking 'are they trying to convince me that THIS is the new Santa?!'
And i hate that music too.
(I think it's an advert for Debenhams...)  :(

Different strokes, eh!

I think it's his smile. I'm a sucker for a good looking man. Otherwise the commercial would totally annoy me.  ;)

I've just seen that advert for the third time this morning, and still cant see the appeal.

One woman's 'good-looking' is another woman's 'slimy', i guess!   ;)   ;)   ;D


Also... ive kind of had enough of the adverts where Davina is talking to her mum on the phone about hair dye.  ::)

I can't stand that Debenhams advert I never really noticed whether the guy was good looking or not ...I guess the woman in that advert is mrs claus. I just don't like a body popping santa claus ::)

the ugly betty channel 4 ads are getting on my nerves. I giggled on the first one but now the novelty is wearing thin.

But never fear, gentlemen; castration was really not the point of feminism, and we women are too busy eviscerating one another to take you on.

Phil was keen about wanting to see it because he heard so much about it then dad sent us episodes :-\\\\

I wonder how well will it fare with UK audiences.
