    Go Compare countdown

    Seen this on the adverts over the last few days. No one really knows what it is a countdown to. Some say the death of the really annoying opera singing man.... or new ad campagne.

    Any thoughts?

    Yep I think he's going to get it. Generally regarded as one of the most annoying ads I'm sure it's the end for him. But how will they do it ?

    This ad has been going for three years. Surely it's time to give the nation a much deserved break from the most annoying ad in living memory.

    Looks likely to be the latter, Steve ... 'Go Compare' Compere, aka Gio Compario - played by leading Welsh Opera tenor, Wynne Evans - is very much alive

    Mmm ... the ad can be a bit "jarring" on the nerves - but it seems to be a favourite of a friend of mine for reasons best known to himself.

    D' you mean the TV ads though, Steve ... yes?

    Must admit, I get ed~off with most of them at the best of times.

    Mind you, for non-sporty types like me, they did, at least, provide some light relief from the constant deluge of events such as *Wimbledon - following hard on the heels of *Euro 2012 - and the next sufference, the *Olympics on BBC ... ***ALL partly responsible for the postponement/rescheduling of many of my regular favourites.
