Wow. These are almost half a century ago and I last saw them about half a century ago. Yet somewhere deep in my mind remnants remain as I remember some of these commercials.
Great observation! That was ticking in the back of my mind, until you pointed it out. It's been almost completely lost now. Despite this, the accents are not as "Aussie" as we get in ads today. The accents still had some of the "proper" English tinge which was used in broadcasting in the 1970s.
Back then, all ads had to be made in Australia. So, even if it was for a foreign product, their existing ad campaigns were remade locally with Australian actors.
Does anyone remember the Woodbine cigarette ads which were a parody of the Marlborough Man on a horse ads. Comedian Norman Gunston would ride his horse sitting backwards!
What I REALLY love about 70's and 80's ads is that they are simple and straight to the point. Not like now how it is just crap grabs of some song you don't know and nothing relevant until right to the end of the advert (if they ever get to the point anyway!)
The thing that annoys me about modern ads is that they use old songs rerecorded by some girl pop singer that has no of the nuance or emotion of the original. A lot of the time they are happy songs, remade to sound sad and depressing. I hear it all the time. No respect for the originals.
So many memories. I was in my late teens when these ads were airing. Thank you for the reminders. I have early stages of dementia. This has helped. Many many thanks. Richard from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺
Thank you for your comment and for supporting my channel mate, us Tasmanians are a rare breed. I wish you all the best with your health challenges, take care.
man, these ads are as old as my mum old media like this is always a neat peak into the past, and ads aren't something people usually think to preserve thanks for uploading mate
7:26. The iconic 1970s Rosella TV commercial with the anthemic soundtrack. A full version with appropriate lyrics would have been a #1 music hit. 24:37. The iconic Skinny Milk ad featuring the beautiful and talented Rebecca Gilling
The thing about all these ads from the 70s, was they actually made you want to buy the product. I can't remember the last time I saw an ad and wanted to buy it. Mostly I'm just annoyed and mute them, that is if I ever watch tv, which is garbage.
I was born in 72, so was 7 when these aired. I remember the silver fishies swimming around in the cat food ad, the Skinny milk, ad, and the fire breathing anticol ad.
The dancer in the skinny milk ad is Rebecca Gilling. She acted in the movies Stone, and The Man from Hong Kong. And later presented the Our House program.
I was born in 75 and remember about half these ads maybe more. It is quite trippy rewatching them all these years later. I didn’t even know I knew them but being drawn into those memories was surreal. The ad with the kids and the fabric softener.. that got me in the feels even as a kid 😂 made me want to cuddle my mummy 😊❤
I couldn’t believe seeing the old Rosella soup commercial, it’s been virtually impossible to find, as well as Ezi-Clean, I thought I was the only person in Australia who remembers Ezi-Clean.
I'm in here to jot down the dates and the stations from which these commercials were recorded. The ones from the start of the video up until 8:07 appear to come from GTV-9 (from the very briefly glimpsed promo font) and date from June 1977, based on the Tatts Gold Lottery plugs, since there was a full page ad for them in the 7 June 1977 edition of _The Age._ The ones from 8:07 until 16:03 are from ATV-0 Melbourne and date presumably from 8 April 1978. The ones from 16:03 up until 21:41 are again from ATV-0 Melbourne and are from around June 1978. The ones from 21:41 up until the end of the video appear to yet again be from ATV-0 Melbourne and date definitively from 2 June 1979.
Your mostly correct. These all come from 3 episodes of Young Talent Time. The 77 and 78 episodes were birthday specials. The shows anniversary was on the 25th of April each year so they could quite possibly be from June. Their is a book on the show coming out soon which features detailed episode information so if it contains the air dates then I'll let you know what they are.
@aus80srockradio94 Although I didn't record them I believe they were recorded on a National Cartridge Video Recorder. It must have cost a fortune back in the day.
I remember the old ad for "Have a go". "It's a typical Aussie morning, on a typical Aussie day. And I love this place i was born in, in it's typical aussie way." We were read proud aussies those days!
Thanks for some great memories. Possibly the first time I have seen these ads in colour. We didn't get a colour tv until 1983, although it was available from 1975. The Telecom STD ad was a great reminder. When the NBN was connected to my house. The landline had to be replaced. The cable conduit dug up was marked Telecom. Must have been there a while.
@@ACDZ123 I remember in about 1972, Tarax had a competition with the bottle cap had one of the letters of the word Tarax underneath, if we could find enough caps which spelled tarax, we won a prize, but we could never find a cap with an X.
I'm 57, and these ads come back to me like yesterday. Great copies too. This is Australia, the real Australia in the 70s. The country has gone to hell! Brashs' Camberwell was our store. I bought my first TV there in 1987 10 years later. For a split second you saw Johnny Young and the Young Talent Team with the Channel O Melbourne. Palmolive at with The VFL. Robert Morely Hienz add. These are from Melbourne TV😄
I loved the State bank commercial,,, this was when you got service when you went to a bank,,, instead of getting pushed into online banking to make the greedy banks richer,,,,, how times have changed 😢
This is really special. Not many recordings off TV in the late 70s exist as VCRs/Betamax were only just in. And for someone to still have the tapes is incredible.
Eventually the whole Holden range got RTS. I still remember the ad for the HZ Kingswood SL. Filmed on the Eastern Freeway in Melbourne, near the Yarra Bend Rd bridge. The freeway was not, at the time, open for traffic.
@@barbz8122 My Teacher at high school had a torana sedan ,and he optioned it with power assist steering, because of a little conflict called the Korean War that left him with a weakness in the torso . And I'm envious as I was priced out of the market by the time I got a job . Would love to have a SS with the lot including the tail gate camper option from NASCO ( HBD ) .
Born in 1971 - scarily, I clearly remember a fair bit of this stuff - especially the Salada, Murine2, and Velvet soap, Pure and Simple, Addwash, Wales travel adverts., Skinny Milk, Bank Card, Other adverts like Gladwrap, Heinz soups, Palmolive, Oil of Ulan, and many others, rang a bell, but I know those brands were running adverts for years.
I remember the Uncle Sam deodorant ads - this is the school boy parody of that ad - You need Uncle Sam, you dirty old man, 48 cents for a rusty old can, the perfect connection for cats and dogs, and under your arm is the smell of the frogs!
The one I remember didn't have 'you dirty old man', but it did have: "...the perfect connection for teachers that smell, 'cause under their arm is the bottom of Hell."
Of all the things it's the Scuff Stuff I remember....there was also the two women with the Jif (?) ad "You're putting me on", "No I'm putting you in!". There was also a cough medicine ad that had these "germs" that would pulsate on the screen and it used to frighten the absolute shit out of me🤣🤣
I still remember the spinning top game in the early 1970s. The reporter asked the champ kid what his secret was, he said - Its all in the wrist action! For a long time, if one of us kids asked another how did something, he would respond with 'its all in the wrist action!'
The Colgate 'ring of confidence' - I remember when Samuel Johnson created the adverts for their toothpaste, they did a parody of the Colgate ad, and had a square around the woman's head instead of the ring of confidence.
Great memories... I remember and really loved the cartoon Kentucky Fried Chicken ad where the car is bouncing along the country road, and they are all singing along. It started off with HEY DAD, THE WHEELS ARE TALKING...If I heard it wherever I was in the house, I would run to watch it. That ad alone would make you WANT to get some..and also the chicken was nowhere near as greasy as it is now.I
Does anyone remember the awful BrylCream ads from the early seventies, from memory, Bryl Cream - oily cream added to hair to make the hair look shiny. It was in decline with the young 1960s adults. Ad had a conga line with a man saying 'I came back' (to using Brylcream) and a woman behind him followed this by saying, 'And I am glad he did' This ad did not seem to work or work for long, haven't heard of Brylcream in decades.
Does anyone remember the Alto Ford commercial with the girl ona bike with tiny shorts, as a teen I loved this ad and the song, but never seen it since. I'm from Sydney and I must say, I dont remember a channel "0", anyway thanks for putting this up, it brought a lot of good memories, cheers everyone.
I remember seeing outtakes from the Dame Edna whitegoods ad at 29.40 Barry starts talking about how "you should jam pack your house with so many Westinghouse goods that you'll need to smear yourself with Vaseline in order to squeeze yourself between just to get into your home possums" while the director (think it may have been Bruce Beresford) was saying "thats enough now. Barry, Barry. BARRY! ENOUGH!!!"
Very few of these products still available, but Kit-Kat and Snack chocolate taste exactly the same. They got it right and never changed it, however they are smaller now.
Possibly I did not watch enough TV, or the ads did not take on me that well. Even though I did actually work in broadcast just after this period! I do remember a lot of the brands or stores, amazed at the prices of things back then. I really need to work on that whole being brainwashed thing. The things I did remember were, the tune from Rosella, the cartoon Mr Sheen. I vaguely remember Palmolive Gold. I do vaguely remember the Heinz tomato soup (series, was it Robert Morley?) the MacLeans (series) and also their packaging. I do remember the Skinny Milk model (I was probably as thin back then, but no skinny milk for me!). Strangely, I remember the Gascor Insulation animation. Hah! I remember the ETA super spread margarine, completely, but primarily because they used Ronald Binge's Elizabethan Serenade - advertisers note, you cannot beat an orchestral piece ("Anyhow have a Winfield" rings a bell, because Tchaikovsky). Anticol yes, remember it. It did not escape my attention that the compilation came from recordings of the ad breaks during Young Talent Time, on the then "Channel 0" (later Channel 10). I do need to try harder on the nostalgia front, maybe in another 10-20 years I will get there. Until then, 70s advertisers, you largely failed.
(11:35) While Shane Gould comes across as Rocky Balboa selling Beast Aftershave (Rocky II) in that Muesli Flakes ad, (12:06) Robert Morley really knew how to sell a tomato.
@@bikepacker9850 OK, sheesh, you were talking about Melbourne, then you posted "You flash Sydney people with your 4 channels" , it seemed like a really random comment; The, "you flash'' ( i was thinking like a flasher in a park, flashy people lol). Lived in Newcastle many many years ago when i was a kid, was Really nice back then, heard it's not so nice anymore...
And the YooHoo flavoured milk ads, showing Jessalenko and a kid with the kid saying YooHoo makes me burst my buttons as all the buttons on his jacket pinged off!
I'm now 60 and my brain still remembers most of these ads. Many of these were on Sydney TV so these are the ones I remember.

I do remember the Skinny Milk model (I was probably as thin back then, but no skinny milk for me!). Strangely, I remember the Gascor Insulation animation. Hah! I remember the ETA super spread margarine, completely, but primarily because they used Ronald Binge's Elizabethan Serenade - advertisers note, you cannot beat an orchestral piece ("Anyhow have a Winfield" rings a bell, because Tchaikovsky). Anticol yes, remember it.
It did not escape my attention that the compilation came from recordings of the ad breaks during Young Talent Time, on the then "Channel 0" (later Channel 10). I do need to try harder on the nostalgia front, maybe in another 10-20 years I will get there. Until then, 70s advertisers, you largely failed.
how quickly we forgot Alvin Purple flogging cheap jeans.
Was that a young Liz Burch in the Colgate ad at 6:25?
Enjoyed this one, thanks for the upload:)
(11:35) While Shane Gould comes across as Rocky Balboa selling Beast Aftershave (Rocky II) in that Muesli Flakes ad, (12:06) Robert Morley really knew how to sell a tomato.
These must have been Melbourne ads, i don't recognise many. Melbourne was like another country when you grew up in Newcastle.

@@bikepacker9850 OK, sheesh, you were talking about Melbourne, then you posted "You flash Sydney people with your 4 channels" , it seemed like a really random comment; The, "you flash'' ( i was thinking like a flasher in a park, flashy people lol).
Lived in Newcastle many many years ago when i was a kid, was Really nice back then, heard it's not so nice anymore...
Best yrs! I remember these! amazing! a child of the 70's, a time where being white wasn't a crime.
Bring back the ..... Australia policy 🇦🇺
People relaxed, had fun, trusting, hopeful. It is wicked what they have done to us.
After watching these ads, it makes me think that maybe Arthur Caldwell was 100% correct.
Racist comment of the day fool
Julie Anthony singing the Ansett jingle @ 10:07 ??
20:45 I thought that was Judy Nunn.
It is
I do it at night twice, frequently more than twice but not what the ad is doing.
...AWESOME !!! ...
These ads are actually good though, the products are appealing. Why do they make repulsive ads nowadays? It doesn't seem to make sense.
Psychology...
And the YooHoo flavoured milk ads, showing Jessalenko and a kid with the kid saying YooHoo makes me burst my buttons as all the buttons on his jacket pinged off!
Great era. Back when people were normal.
Very lucky and privelaged to be born in the 60's ,only regret is not being born in the 50's.
