Two spring to mind straight away for me, anyway.
Firstly, the white horses Guinness. This is such a beautiful advert, I can't understand why anyone can't like it...
The peace and tranquility of the sea disturbed suddenly as the sea opens, and the waiting ends... the birds eye view of the sea is amazing, and the use of horses, powerful voice over and music make this advert no less than inspiring.
The second one some may have not seen, as it's a bit old. It was made by a newspaper, the Guardian, as that website Mr Neil provided has shown me.
Anyway, it's excellent. The whole premise is never judge something unless you've seen the whole story, and is utterly perfect. The advert is simple a single event, and is shot from three different camera angles.
The first one shows a man running down a street. Nothing much there... you don't really learn anything, and you don't really become interested in what's going on.
The next camera angle shows the man running again, but this time he's running towards another man carrying a briefcase, and you can see that the running man goes to grab the man with the briefcase, and it appears that he's trying to steal the briefcase. This is filmed perfectly, and I think really applies to the subject, being the newspaper, and how stories can become twisted.
And then you see the third camera angle... which explains everything. The man running down the street is indeed running towards the briefcase man, and now you can see why. A large amount of bricks are about to fall on briefcase man, and in a matter of seconds, the running man saves his life. It shows how a criminal can be changed into a hero simply by changing the viewpoint.
Ok, so your favourite adverts please. :0)

The irn-bru ones are all great. The new bud one with the thanks to the foot long weaner guy is funny. I also like the hovis one with the " but a caterpillar could have pooed on it"
I've got a couple of funny adverts on my website if anyone's interested, all in MPEG format.
I've got the salmon one with the Kung Fu bear (John West), the Budweiser one where the frogs are giving the chameleon a good kicking and a good one for a Mars bar type chocolate.

The Carling Black Label one with the squirrel doing the assault course to the Mission: Impossible theme tune.
The girl who says: "What do like best: daddy or chips?".
The other Carling one when he says "I bet he drinks Carling Black Label", his mates "Who?", and he says "The next bloke through that door. Cue Old Spice music ...
That Guardian one.
