I'll never forget seeing the BBC programme "How Do They Do It" years ago and them saying how the final shot from Ryan Giggs took them 350 takes - but man does he nail it. A great ad from way back when.

The Dublin City Marathon 2009
I'll never forget quitting my training programme after three weeks when I told myself I'd do the Dublin Marathon. In honour of the crazy people that actually do the marathon, here's a taste of some of my favourite sport ads that have been released in the last few years.
Fila - Born To Run
Reebok - Escape the Sofa
Nike - Courage
Adidas - House Party

Advertising selling advertising
I'll never forget how just hearing these jingles remind me of the very ad campaigns they're from.

Phenomenal!!
I'll never forget seeing this ad for the first time. Although I love simple ads with a strong message this is anything but simple and started manys a fight when first viewed 'cause people didn't believe it was real. I know it's stereotypical but this is probably my favourite ad of all time.
I'll never forget when I was working as a lounge boy and this came on the TV during the half time of a United match. Everybody in the pub stopped talking for 30 seconds in amazement. The second it finished the fights about it's authenticity started and I knew I wanted in on the advertising game.

My least favourite TV ad. Good god!
I'll never forget my reaction to this ad when I saw somebody on Facebook saying they wanted to have a 'poo in Paul's' and somebody else replied 'I love that ad'. I had no idea what they were talking about so googled it. I am still in shock at this...

My favourite TV ads
I'll never forget the following ads...
I love this ad for the simplicity of the execution but the power of the message. No big budget. No big actor. Just a great little actor in an empty room. Lovely
I love the weirdness of this ad and the fact that you really don't get what's going on until the end yet you can't turn away before you find out. I love the style of it too but where did they get your man?
Love this ad too. This is one of the oldest ads that I remember and my ma loved it. There's a lot of old TV ads coming back on our screens because nostalgia is in at the moment (and money is out) and I think they should release this again. I love good music in ads too and this has a brilliant piece of music from Dusty Springfield. Special nod to Alan Hughes from TV3 too.
