have表示“某人/物有……”，there be表示“某处存在某物”，两者不能在同一句中同时使用，排除选项A；be said to 意为“据说……”，常作插入语，相当于“主语＋be said to...”。
该句可改成It is said that there will be no ad during TV plays.故C项正确。

under no circumstance相当于in no case/in no way/on no account/by no means/never，意为“决不”，置于句首时，句子要部分倒装，即：将助动词或情态动词放在主语之前。

由语境可知，此处有责怪的意思，情态动词应用should。
