Past Sell By Date Add Actors.

You've seen 'em...

Failed thespians in their final stage of life, so useless even the voice-over people can't be bothered to answer their pleas for work, so they sell their souls to the Devil.

Or to be more precise, The Prudential, Wankaglaze windows, Esure insurance.or any add willing to pay a little fee etc etc...

There have been a few too!

Notable Ad Whores include Karl Howman who used to be Jacko from 'Brush Strokes' about three hundred years ago, but now cleans kitchens for a living. That now sad Griff Rhys-Jones who pretends to be some kind of Sheep f-ing professor, who partially dismantles Vauxhalls (like if the bloody things don't just self destruct without human intervention anyway) and the allegedly very attractive Carol bloody Vorderman, who in reality is as sexy as a Turkish Taxi drivers gusset.

There is one Ocka-like creature in particular, however, who falls to new depths of c-ness.
A man who makes Jabba the Hut look like Brad Pitt (Rhymes with S...T?) and is more irritating than a huge dose of Nigerian Thrush.
Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, I present to you...

Michael Winner.

Ex porn actor, Ex director and Active tw@t, this obese greaseball offends even legendary contemptibles such as the highly execrable Alan Sugar (a truly nasty hard b@st@rd, like a sort of Vinnie Jones with a business degree)

The incredulously named 'Winner' resembles one of Bernard Matthews finest oven ready birds, and appears in one of the most pretentious and irritating adverts ever to grace your living room. And proved so bad at even this menial task. he was replaced by an equally irritating cartoon mouse.

I would enjoy hacking this buggers limbs off with a Chainsaw whilst muttering 'Calm down dear its only a advert'

This is nothing new, although, rumour has it, Orson Welles ran his career backward as some sort of extravagant joke.Rising from that cheap crap Citizen Caine, to those masterclass sherry adverts.Pure genius on his part!

Reminds me of 'Dancing with the Stars' and 'Skating with the Stars' and of course, reruns of Love Boat.

I agree and I wish someone would make it all stop.
