  Yeah but have you seen the other bingo ads out there like the FOxy bingo ad. I’d suggest looking at some of the bingo comparison sites and using their info – user reviews and comparisons of the offers etc rather than just expecting a shit ad for online bingo to generate new players. Word on the street is that The Sun is doing Ok but that must just be down to their huge database

  Hey Carly,

  I’d love to complain about the shameless advertising for Bingo Alerts that you’ve left in the comments of this post but then I remembered that allow Google to place ads on this site in exchange for huge sums of cash… so I don’t really have a leg to stand on.

  Maybe a little more subtlety in the future though, hey?

  Cheers, Silky.

  I have to say that I dont mind people telling me about websites that could be useful to me and I did go to bingo alerts at Carlys prompting and found it to be a good site with loads of useful info and offers. Its the shameless plugging of useless sites that annoys me. At least Carly was on topic!!

  what does the blonde girl say? not only does the advert annoy me but not knowing what she says is worse. is it something to do with broadband? arrrghgrh!

• Silky

  

  Said on the 25 September 2007

  I think Jon, but I may be wrong, that she says “It broadbandsome”.

  Which is obviously complete gibberish… but then what do you expect from a Sun reader.

  Ooh, cutting.

  Hi,

  Does anyone know if these are real actors in the ad? I think I recognise an old friend!!

  Said on the 12 October 2007

  I to have been wondering for ages what the crapping hell that blonde girl says, it bugged me sooo much! But I think she is saying “brought by the sun” If it’s not brought it’s something like that but she is definitely saying “by the sun”. But it is the shitest advert I’ve seen for a while

• Jon

  

  Said on the 12 October 2007

  Natalie, you may be onto something there, at least that kinda makes sense. I will now be able to slit my wrists with a clear conscience. hehe. But I think we may need to get Lizzie to ask her friend what is being said..

  I dont think its what the people in the ad are saying I think its the constant chanting of B.I.N.G.O which makes me want to thrown my kitten through the TV. I know how to spell the word, so why cant they just say it. Plus those girls in the ad are clearly too stupid to knwo how to turn a computer on let alone work out how to deposit money on their credit card!!

  Its brought by the sun. Why didn’t they just say bingo for b?

  The one saving grace of this rather irritating advert is that the ‘never boring’ woman is really, really cute!!! Or am I on my own with that one!?

  what is that woman saying

• Jon

  

  Said on the 12 October 2007

  If you read from the top down or even bottom up you can usually get the gist of a thread. But just in case, I originally asked what the blonde girl says in the Sun B.I.N.G.O advert (what this thread is about). We think we have cracked it and she says (“it is B”) “Brought by the Sun”.

• Ellie

  

  Said on the 12 October 2007

  thats great that you cracked it, but why do they need to sing B.I.N.G.O. Also who is the composer of the music, he needs to be taken to the Hague and tried for crimes against humanity

• Mike Empuria

  @Ellie

  The reason that they are singing B.I.N.G.O. is because they are remaking/using/destroying the classic hit by Ottawan called D.I.S.C.O.

  For the sake of completeness here are the original lyrics (oh God I can’t believe I’m posting this):

  D.I.S.C.O (3x)
  She is disco

  She is D delirious
  She is I incredible
  She is S superficial
  She is C complicated
  She is O oh, oh, oh

  She is D desirable
  She is I irresistible
  She is S super sexy
  She is C such a cute
  She is O oh, oh, oh

  D.I.S.C.O.
  She is disco

  She is D disasters
  She is I impossible
  She is S super special
  She is C crazy, crazy
  She is O oh, oh, oh

  She is D delightful
  She is I incredible
  She is S sensational
  She is C sweetest candy
  She is O oh, oh, oh

  D.I.S.C.O
  She is disco

  Ottawan are of course also famous for the classic hit “Hands Up”

  That’s it! A shotgun or “Have I Got News For You” beckons – not too sure which.

  Bang!!

  Said on the 13 October 2007

  Thanks for that Mike… and let me reassure you that in no way does knowing the lyrics to D.I.S.C.O. by Ottawan bring shame on you or your family.

  Honest.

  The blonde says “Broadband Sun”, I’m sure of it.
  Terrible ad.

  It’s not so much the plonky ‘actors’ or what they are saying that gets me.

  What I can’t figure out (and never will) is how Sarah Cox keeps getting so much voice over work when she’s got the WORST dippy female voice I’ve ever heard in my life!

  It just baffles me???

  Is that the Shrek looking bloke from Hear Say in this ad??

  Get it off TV NOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  Re Fiestyfox 151007 – couldn’t agree more re Sarah Cox – I mean Sarah Cox is ok I suppose – but she comes accross a bit untalented – it’s hard to desribe her but I just don’t get how she is famous as a DJ or voice over – she isn’t that great – she is unfunny and makes childish cringeable comments and just sounds unprofessional and a bit lazy – can someone please tell me why she is slightly famous? I mean yes she comes from Bolton and used to go to Bedford High School in Leigh Lancashire (so I hear?) and her dad had a farm and she had a horse called Gus or summat and she has a dog called Snoop or summat (no idea how I know all these sad things??? – I just have a ridiculously good memory for stupid shit)

  Also while we are supposed to be on the subject of bingo – I digressed – no I don’t think he is the Shrek type bloke from Hearsay on the Sun BINGO ad – I think he just looks like him and although the ad is pure shit it’s better than that Foxy bingo ad – now that is just fookin creepy!!!!!

  Following another assault on my ears and eyes, I’ve just googled Sun Bingo Advert and got here. Thank goodness I found it as I now know it’s not just me. Reason for search is that I couldn’t for the life of me work out what the B was – it sounds like “Rob Anson” – who the hell is that? Thankfully the “Brought by the Sun” has explained this (though “Broadband Sun” was the best explanation I had worked out prior to that) and I won’t feel like someone who’s just heard nails scratching a blackboard anymore.

  On another note, a friend once said to me “How can Sarah Cox have a job on the radio? I’ve never heard someone with so many speech impediments at the same time in my life”. I’ve never forgotten that and think of it every time I hear her voice.

  I guess they couldn’t get that other voiceover favourite Mariella Fostrup to degrade herself by being part of a Sun ad.

  No comment re “Hear’Say Guy”. His enthusiasm astounds me…

  The “never boring” girl is indeed f*cking stunning. Something really sexy and cute comes across in that one short, but oh so sweet line!! We definitely need to find out who she is!!

  Said on the 17 November 2007

  Stef, glad you found us and glad that other advert haters could help you out.

  Sara Cox does have an annoying voice but in a cutesy way that makes you think she’s good to her Mum, wouldn’t you say?

  One of the girls in the ad is my daughter and who is laughing at who….she got paid good money for doing this ad and went on to do better and bigger things by it and it certainly got you arseholes talking about it, ( which is the idea of any ad )so he who laughs last laughs longest… by the way she probably has more brains than any of you put together and is now on 6 week vacation in Thai land thanks to all the money she has made ha ha ha …
