Is it my imagination or not?  Are we getting more and more Ads and lasting longer and longer?
There will soon be more Ads than programmes at this rate.

The majority of them drive me up the wall anyway, because they are all repeats over and over again.   I am sick to death of either Cruises  or Cremations!  Every single ad break those two are on, all day long.

I used to actually like the man with his dog at Noel Fitzpatrick's  but even that has been done to death now too. 

Are there any ads you actually like or dislike?

Moan over.   :wink:

Totally agree Scrumps.    And the blinkin'  advert is on at almost every single ad break here, too.   
I could say they are plugging it to death.   :wink:

I don't watch live telly, but I use You Tube a lot and the amount of adverts is ridiculous.  I looked into having ad-free access to YT £12.99 a month UK  !!!! although they've introduced a ' lite' version for UK, £7.99 a month.
Don't think I'll bother. :rolleyes:

Netflix seems ads free unless I am doing it wrong

Ah,  I've only got Freeview.    I wouldn't know how anything else works anyway.

All the time, every 15 minutes,   it's  either cremations or cruises.   :rolleyes:
