Post Two Hundred (and One)
27 June 2008 by SilkyYes, TWA has made it to 200 entries. Some have made us laugh, some have made us cry, some have made us consult our lawyers. All have made not one jot of difference to the quality of adverts on TV.
Not one jot!
Anyways, in what at first glance may seem like lazy, slap-on-the-back, self-satisfaction, but in reality is something that has taken me quite some time to do so is in no way lazy, here’s a list - in no particular order - of 5 of my favourtite entries from the past 200.
Enjoy!
Cerco IT Training
And advert encouraging peope to start a new career as an IT support desk professional. A career choice so bad that Tony Robinson is doing a special documentary about next week and an advert with even worse spelling.
Peugeot 308
Another one of those bloody environmentalist adverts pushing a product that will enable you to repent your filthy polluting ways and be at one with nature - or some cock like that.
Ferrero Rocher
Sebastian Faulkes had better watch out. Not a particularly bad advert in any way, shape or form but I like the entry. And this is my list. So it’s on it.
Teach - Work With…
I can think of only one thing I’d rather do less than work on an IT support desk and that’s be a teacher.
Four words as an explanation: Solar Powered Killing Sheep. Oh dear, oh dear.
Dulco Ease
“Bowel stuff… it’s hard and uncomfortable.”
Nothing more needs to be said.
You Want More?
As tired and well rehearsed as the jokes all seem on TVs Worst Adverts, I think the dead horse that is UK TV advertising still has some flogging left in it. Wouldn’t you say?
So thanks for reading and for all your contributions over the past 200 posts and let’s look forward to 200 more shit adverts.
Ta ta, Silky.
