    Yes....! The great "acetastinmotivatin' Pepsi ads, the cool Cresta ads, the wonderful Martini ads (great musical theme!), and that Manikin advert I haven't seen since the 70s! Actually, what you see here is a revised version. The original (of which I used to have a 35mm print, because I worked with film commercials back then), had a rather heavier graunchy version of this music, without the girl vocal, which I liked better - and, believe it or not, the soundtrack was credited as Manfred Mann!

These days you get adverts/commercials jammed in your face every second of every day. What a simpler time. I have had the Humphreys jingle in my head for 2 weeks now. Lol.

    Going on about Jimmy Savile when he's been dead for years is pointless as a lot of young people have never heard of him.

      A lot of young people wished they hadn't as well, Andrew.

      Has to be said. You do wonder who might currently be high-profile for BBC or ITV or SKY or whatever who's getting away with the sort of thing now and who, if Savile is any indication, might be getting protection from people higher up the ladder who are covering their back and enabling it. Being reminided that this has happened - high-value TV star protected by corrupt TV execs and politicians is allowed to get away with it, big-time

    The 70's had everything. adverts for smoking, adverts for drinking, adverts for shirts that looking at them would make you go blind. Oh and a pedophile on TV.
