The Aldi advert with the bear in the woods. "Honestly. You people."

The Paddy Power advert where the guy comes on and get's struck by lightening! Quality. "Oh dear, he's definitely going to be out for at least 3 weeks!"

Must add the M + Ms advert. "So it's that kinda party!"

All 3 are hilarious :D

Anyone watching Spiral? I've missed the first few weeks :(

Jaggy, you can still get all of the episodes of Spiral on BBC's iPlayer although the first two will expire on Monday.

This is apparently series 5 but I've not watched it before. I am hooked, though. The only slightly disturbing thing is that the discredited barrister (Josephine Karlsson) looks unnervingly like my first ex wife.

I was shocked a the death of one of the strong characters, that said it is developing as a drama series.

I found the early series too self consciously grim, so I think I missed the last couple. This one doesn't take itself so seriously though.

Most adverts leave me scratching my head, to be honest. The idea that anyone would watch them and think, "yes, I need this product!" is absolutely mystifying, and the people making them often don't seem to give a shit that they're supposed to be selling something anyway. Just shows how clueless execs at big companies are when they spooge money away on useless nonsense.

The Ski Sunday Theme tune.

Reminds me of Sunday afternoons at my grandparents' house, watching Scotsport then Ski Sunday with Grandad while Nana made Sunday dinner. Absolutely glorious.

Not sure Grandad would approve of the Slopestyle snowboarding you get today though!

The BBC's themes for most sports were things of beauty. The people they employed to write those did tremendous jobs of encapsulating each sport, even those I'd never have watched in a million years.

Anyone tried humming the theme. Get so far and then it turns into something else entirely
