    I think this was my all time favourite Christmas. I was 11 and got a tape recorder and I was taping all of these adverts adding my own content 😂

      @5:01 - it is too nice. I almost drunk a whole bottle once and had to point out to my brother that it is thick glass and you don't get as much as you would expect inside.

    Ray Burdis leading out the football team in the Debenhams advert, and David Bradley enjoying a pipe full of St. Bruno. Michael Angelis and Chris Langham enjoying Skol lagers.

      I'd better atone for my error....definitely Derek Nimmo as the main voice in the KP ad , Paul Darrow was being billed for room service , etc in the American Express ad and Jeff Rawle was the mug who bought the chest wig in the Panama Cigars ad........I hope!!!

    Interesting that the George and Mildred film debuted on TV only five months after its cinema release. Was special dispensation given for the film to be screened so quickly? Wasn't the normal rule four years after a cinema release?

      @@Scatscar1985 Indeed, but the British film industry took its embargo on showing films on TV extremely seriously. Originally there was an 8 year limit set, later reduced to (IIRC) 4. Such a short amount of time as in this case was absolutely unheard of.
