Laughable endorsements

This just in...

Anne Diamond signs for Another Year with Postgoldforcash

7 July 2010

Radio presenter and TV Breakfast Queen Anne Diamond has confirmed she has signed to be the face of Postgoldforcash for another year, encouraging customers to choose the TOP company to sell their unwanted or broken jewellery.

Anne Diamond had no doubt from the beginning that she had picked the right gold buying company to endorse. She was proved right in the last year when Postgoldforcash appointed top independent research company TNS to conduct a mystery shop. Postgoldforcash came top of all TV advertisers.
Being a BBC Radio Presenter, Anne was also not surprised when the BBC One Show found that Postgoldforcash paid more than all the other TV advertised gold buying companies in a postal gold survey.

‘Postgoldforcash provided me with a great experience when sending my gold away a year ago and now they have proven they have kept to those standards by scoring top for service in the TNS research.
I would still encourage people to send of their gold as the gold price is still rising and with the poor economic climate, what better way to make some cash from sending in broken and out of fashion gold, silver or platinum jewellery. I will need to look through my jewellery box to see if I have anymore odd earrings,’ says Anne Diamond.


Let us hereby open the floodgates for laughable endorsements. Post them right here. That dodgy bloke out of The Bill and Eastenders doing the lawyer ads? Lenny Henry's 'popular' Travelodge shite? Both welcome. Any more?

That dodgy bloke from The Bill and Eastenders who does the Injury Lawyers 4 U adverts also happens to be Captain Price from CoD.

Don't mess. :P

The one with Angela Griffon. WTF is all that about. The yoghurt one with Martine McCutcheon is cringe worthy. Saying that, all ads with semi celebs are. The less we mention about Ant & Dec the better.

Anyone one seen the ad with Terry Venables in it at the moment? It's an advert for a dry pasta sauce or something, and he's telling this couple how to cook a pasta bake at a fruit and veg market. Very weird.

Supposedly she was an absolute diva on set, made clear her complete hatred of the actual product she was advertising and insisted the cartons be filled with Petit Filous instead.

FANTASTIC! I knew it was her being a total cunt that led to her lack of any work whatsoever.
Mental exhaustion my arse!
And how do you know?!

I have my sources ;)

It doesn't surprise me though - she's high profile enough to be able to get away with it.

Still, I'm pretty certain if an unknown had been cast in the part and showed a dislike for the product, they would have been quickly shown the door.
