Badvertising: The Paddy Power Vampire – “Who Are You & What Are You Doing Here?”

August 7th, 2012 By Michael Park

There’s no video content for this week’s Badvertising, primarily because caretaker of the advertising corner, Michael Park, has become the victim of legal action after a woman’s head exploded after seeing his smug, self-involved face on her computer screen more than the appointed twice in a month. This means that it’s back to plain ol’ words!

When you’re making an advert, it’s important to establish a relationship for the sake of the viewer. Now, what do we mean by that? There are myriad different types of relationships in advertising from the authoritarian ‘expert’ who spends a worrying amount of time bellowing out of the television, to the ‘friends’ who love nothing more than snuggling up on a couch eating Maltesers and taking intravenous injections of air freshener.

Big Brother Betting Odds – Last Time We Have to Say it: Nicole Out, Please.

March 25th, 2009 By Ian Dransfield

Well, it’s the day of evictions once again and we can’t wait to see what reaction Nicole will get.

Okay so technically she hasn’t been booted out yet, but if she doesn’t go then we won’t be happy and we’ll blame everyone in the country – nay – the world for letting us down. It has to make the most sense anyway – Nicole‘s an arse, whereas Sara‘s hot and Lisa‘s comically insane – there’s no point in keeping the spoiled brat.

If you do want to risk some money, or make very little back from a huge bet, feel free to make your way to Paddy Power and check out their latest odds.

Big Brother Betting Odds – Nicole Out Tomorrow, Please. We’re Not Joking.

March 25th, 2009 By Ian Dransfield

It’s every woman for herself in the Big Brother house this week with outsiders Nicole and Sara up against one of the front-runners Lisa.

There’s no Kat fight and welsh teacher Rachel has survived Lisa‘s scornful looks for another week – but for the other three, it’s claws out, let the bitch fest begin.

So who will be trying to avoid that up-skirt shot (or not, as the case may be with Sara and Nicole) as they climb the BB steps to instant, bright-burning but inevitably short-lived 15 minutes of fame?

One of Lisa, Sarah or Nicole will be ousted – and about time, too. If we could get them all out, we would. The public will decide, of course – and the least favourite housemate will be thrust into the limelight and onto Davina’s couch on Friday. Check with Paddy Power to see how your decision can help net you a bit of cash too.

Big Brother Betting Odds – Can We Get Rid of Nicole Now, Please?

March 25th, 2009 By hecklerspray staff

So there’s a three-way in the Big Brother house this week – one of Sara, Lisa or Nicole will be flushed away on Friday night, as this BB game heats up.

They are all nomination virgins of course, so whichever leaves, it’s going to hurt. However, there may be some relief for Nicole if she gets evicted. At least she won’t have to put up with her arsehole boyfriend Rex anymore.

Tomorrow we’ll take a look at the favourites for the chop – but today let’s have another look those still in the running for the big cash prize, as laid down by Paddy Power. Kerching!

Big Brother Betting Odds – Stu’s Gone, Mikey’s Still Favourite

March 25th, 2009 By hecklerspray staff

Stuart finally got his “wish” this weekend and became the ninth person to be evicted from the ever dwindling Big Brother house.

The soon to be front cover model of every Heat magazine for the rest of eternity received a mixed reaction from the crowd, shrill screams of affection from the moist army of girls in the audience and begrudging boos from the boys. However, special mention has to go to Stu for his ill-advised yet hilarious attempt at crowd surfing: jump, crowd parts in confusion and hit the floor. Textbook.

Housemates fought in the battle of the century for this week’s much coveted and strategically invaluable Head of House(tm) title. Well, they stood still for around 20 minutes painted as various famous statues until it came down to Mo and Rex. Rex took the title by being the best at being still for the longest amount of time; after all he can do literally anything he sets his mind to.

So with Rex as the new head of house how does that shape the dynamics for the other housemates, will his ever changing sociopathic tendencies shine though even more, will he finally argue at Nicole long enough about NOTHING to push her before she jumps and will Mikey obey his new ginger master? As always, Paddy Power have their say on the matter.

Big Brother Betting Odds – Has Rachel Hurt Her Chances?

March 25th, 2009 By hecklerspray staff

Big Brother has got all sporty – and suddenly Stuart has woken up from his slumber. Rachel however has become all sulky and could be preparing for her final day.

But she looks odds on to be wrong – and it will be beefcake Stuart who athletically tackles those steps to freedom tomorrow, finally leaving the house and getting what he wants so badly.

It’s not just the Olympics that could be worth a flutter though, and our pals at Paddy Power have all the betting odds you would ever need for Big Brother.
