Interesting that they've remade this, I hadn't heard anything about it. People have mentioned the iPod and the chemtrail from the jet, but what I spotted first was Joe wearing a chav's Burberry baseball cap which of course is a relatively new phenomenon.
I thought it was from the 60's and 70's this, but when I saw the I-Pod, mobile phone and computer, I thought it must not be. But it's a remake of the 1968 version.
I like how it turns from funny to serious immediately after Joe reads the balloon!
Well I never!
there should be more adverts like this on tv
Joe's got rid of his slippers too and got himself some Adidas trainers
And a Burberry cap
amazing re make
Joe and Petunia are hilarious!! 0:50 to 1:00 is the best bit lmao :P
0:50 and 1:00
I love this advert, I couldn't stop laughing for ages!
I was in a situation like Joe but sadly the man in the sea didn't have the ability to blow a speech bubble out his mouth, so he died.
Good remake, nice touch on turning the knotted hankie into a Burberry cap
do not watch this while stoned, it is far too funny
Bit daft to add a mobile phone?.
If they used the phone box they would still have to update it
they'll have Reginald Molehusband parking a Vauxhall Corsa next....
I remember the original.....

Plus they have a copy of Hello magazine
Love this 21st century rendition! What does Petunia have on her MP3?
All the modern adaptations but still told to "DIAL" the Coastguard. Not dialed anything in years!
What if 1960s cartoons will have modern stuffs like computer, phones and ipod
Pink girl looks like a whole cotton candy roll
Saw it on tv today and thought it was hilarious! Just how all the details had been updated for today. I like the burberry cap!
In the original, Joe ran to a payphone - here, he has a mobile!
@WhatsTheStory94 do these kinds of adverts play in the early hours of the morning on challenege tv
Class.
'thats what they call em, Sailing Dingy'
Using '911 & ask for the coastguard' for-years :)
Brilliant!
Still brilliant lol
They used to show on Channel 5 at 5: 55am, before 'Milkshake' started and in 2008 on Bravo before 'Xena: Warrior Princess' started.
At first I thought this was a realy old cartoon thing, then I saw the ipod and was like WTF!
SO REAL
to the original
I thought the car in the background looked modern for 1968 lol It run for ages this advert. I thought he wore a tied up cloth on his head.
this is a 2006 remake
glad you agree, deary me, this sparked a good hour of laughter :/
Briliant.
Remember the original ad when I was a kid. I used to think it was "dial 999 and ask for the Coast Card!"
Prouncation
"Dial 999 and ask for the Coast Card".
this can save someones life
This advert was made in 1970 so its amazing how Petunia has an Ipod and Joe has a mobile phone lol
it's a remake, and i'm awnsering you 9 years later
i bet you never noticed they also added a plane leaving a nice chemtrail
Remake all the oldies I say, much better messages than what we get today
Goooweee Joe lovely day ,petunia, genius
@19bootsy68 She's been inhaling fish and chips, Wimpys, and knickerbocker glories
I thought it was from the 60's and 70's this, but when I saw the I-Pod, mobile phone and computer, I thought it must not be. But it's a remake of the 1968 version.
