    As tame as it looks now, I remember the disappearance of Carol Hawkins' tennis outfit really getting my attention as an impressionable teen! There's a whiff of Benny Hill about that whole Dunlop advert, and we will not see its like again.
    What surprises me watching that ad now is how well done it is technically. I tried to spot the edits where they must have removed each of the products, and in most cases they were barely perceptible. They even managed to get the dog to be (almost) perfectly still between shots! In those pre-CGI days, a lot of work must have gone into such a well-made ad.

All those blokes in pyjamas coming up to me saying their names were Cane, Sugar Cane, but I could call them sweety. That's what comes of a better life promised by advertising. Used Lifebuoy carbolic soap impregnated with essence of pickled onions after that and have never regretted my choice to this day.

    I acvtually used to look forward to some of the adverts in those days, for example the Guinness ads. Nowadays it seems that the people making the adverts believe that the more annoying the advert is, the better it works. I sat down the other day and tried to remember what the most annoying adverts were actually for, and I realised that I did indeed remember the ads but had no idea what they were advertising. A perfect example is the "Captain Sensible" adverts.
