its looks as though that fat cnut from the go compare ads might be being killed off... hopefully in a very horrific manner
anyone else seen the 2nd July countdown adverts?
I know discussion is the effect that the advertisers want... but I for one don't care as long as I never hear that fcuking tune again
Go Compare? Go Fcuk Yourself :angry:

them adverts are gash tho! if only the BBC would follow we would all be £140? a year better off.... :undecided:

I read they were wanting to regain title of most annoying add?
Expecting even worse :tongue:

If they do axe him, perhaps we'll go (and) compare the new adverts to the old ones....

Good...I hate those type of adverts with the subliminal jingles that get into your head regardless of wether or not you paying attention to it. My head is full of useless websites I will never use, such a waste of brain space.
But even if they do get rid of him and his song, they will just replace it with somethiong even more annoying.
Thank god for Sky +

Thing is....They know the fat b@stard pisses the sh!t out of everyone, but it's the fact that he's so annoying that's spread the word, which in turn works just as planned for the company. It's clever marketing.

someone grafitied on one of the bilboards i drive past going to work, arrow through his head and a few other things and scribbled out compare and changed it so it said go jump off a cliff :grin: :grin:

they haven't been defaced... it is all part of the new marketing campaign
they have changed agencies but I think part of the deal was that they kept the annoying fat cnut in some respect..

This one is near us.
Another one with compare scribbled out and "AWAY" in big silver letters is just down the road from it.

from a post on digital spy
From the advertising they have been doing of late i.e adverts, billboards I have come to the conclusion that on the 2nd July 2012 Go Compare will launch another advertising campaign which will most likely be worse than the current one .
Go Compare.com have got bored with Gio Compario and they agree that it is time for him to go and they are using the hate for the character as a form of advertising.
They know you hate it .
Here is some examples that could spell the end of gio.
Billboard Ads

The compare the market adverts are very funny and make me laugh the 1st time I see them :grin:
Aside from those, I despise adverts. Fortunately I watch most of my TV on sky+ so don't have to sit through them!

Still found the ad annoying, and trust a woman not to do a good job of killing him. I was hoping blood splatter and everything, not a looney toons explosion!

doubt they could show blood splatter... i think a sniper rifle would be more effective
but... HE ISN'T DEAD!! :angry:

Great shame! I love his singing!
