    Dave - text that flashes up sometimes on Dave during the adverts
    OK so i watch Dave alot, and its been annoying me for ages that sometimes at the start/end of adverts there is a red screen that flashes up with text on, but it flashes up for like half a seconed.

    ANYWAY, i paused it and read it, and (I have only read one, i don't know if they all say the same thing), and it said baisically in short, that the swiss are idiots, does anyone know what on earth os going on here? haha?!

    They're called vanity cards or something - they come up at the end of The Big Bang Theory episodes as well. They are usually a bit bizarre, and are usually different every time, though I would guess Dave haven't made enough for every ad break to have a different one...

    They come up after the episode if you watch them online. There is a huge index of them here.
