adverts, eastenders and rl

Has anyone seen those weird Flirtal adverts yet? They're mainly showing on E4 and feature three girls in 'sexy Santa' outfits singing the annoying jingle "I think I need a text" to encourage viewers to, um, text them apparently... for no other reason than the implied possibility of receiving a text from one of said scantily clad girls in response.

:D I actually adore your random blogs about adverts :D They make me miss TV yet also be glad I don't have to see some of them! Well, until tomorrow :D
I also love how shitty some adverts.
Like "0800 2 1500" - Lombard Direct.com. I WILL NEVER ERASE THAT NUMBER.
Just like the Ocean Finance one *shudder*

Happy Birthday to your mum! :) Opening presents over Skype sounds awesome :D

And yet again I get the feeling I should watch Eastenders... ><

Haha, glad my weird advert obsession appeals to someone :P
OMG that number is burned into my brain... like 0800 00 1066 - Hastings Direct. Fucking cocktards.

Lol thanks, I'll tell her you said so :) It was, but then they ate cake and I couldn't have any :( Buggers. I'm going home tomorrow though, for the birthday meal thing, so there'll be cake aplenty then!

Haha, you should, if only so I can have another person to talk about it with :P iPlayer...

Hehehe :) It makes me lol :D
OMG I HATE THAT NUMBER. The little dude and his log car >< The random talking phone. A nodding dog saying "OOOOHHHH yes!" Such things will define our culture for generations to come ><

Hehe :) But aw, that's not so fun :( But cake tomorrow! :D

LOL. Maybe one day :)

Awesomesauce.
I actually had an argument with a lecturer today about adverts... she used the Tesco Bing Crosby Xmas ad as an example in the lecture slides but kept referring to it as the Asda ad, and I couldn't not correct her. Everyone looked at me, and I'm fairly sure I've cemented my reputation as 'the weird one' :P

Yay for cake :D One of the foods there's always more room for.

You never know...

I love the Nokia adverts, Happy birthday to your mum!
I don't watch Coronation Street I have never watched it and you're not getting me addicted to it like you have Eastenders!
Nick Cotton's bring his daughter with him! and she's meant to be just as bad as him. I can't wait for that.

Lol they're great adverts :)

No, don't watch Corrie, it's crap! I hate that I watch it :(
I know, it's going to be awesome. I know he's only staying for a little while, but I'm hoping the daughter will stick around... I imagine the combination of her and Lucy Beale could be a lot of fun :P
