Apart from the London regional ads, i remember each and every one of the others. Great post.
Its amazing how these adverts make you want to live back in the year they were shown...life seems so much better then! And then you realise you WERE alive then, and life wasn't better then, really, just different, because you were young.
Exactly
This makes me proud to be British. :)
Poor guy who smacked his head at the end of the Evening Standard Advert
1:44 - those eyes, they aren't human!
British Airways!! "We'll take more fare off you.....lose your bag!!" (and we'll charge you for water now, too!)
Opal is NOT boring. I grew up in the late 70s and 80s when they were called Opal Fruits and I remember when they changed it to Starburst and I thought what a load of shit. ANYWAY, you just said "If it works why mess with it". Well Opal Fruits worked in England for years and they changed it. The reason why is just to copy the yanks. It was the same with Marathon. They changed the name in about 1988 to Snickers. I remember thinking at the time that Snickers sounds SO American - over the top.
Holy shit...I would never have thought about that Twix song in my life if I hadn't watched this, yet I found myself able to sing along with pretty much all of it, including the basso finale.
I think I'll pass up on that British Airways Poundstretcher offer to Nairobi....just for the moment!
The memories, the memories..
0181 was the pre-fix code for residences situated in Greater London, and 0171 for The City
You never see an old man eating a twix.
Thanks, Karl.
SOB. What a turkey that film was 🤣
Indeed they don't. The ad agencies now, seem to only think about winnig awards.
That Guinness ad, is blast from the past...
I wonder if princess diana watched these commercials.....
@mrclassickids It's Wogan!
I'm sad enough to have remembered this number for the whole of my life and upon searching for it, found this video... I didn't remember what the ad was actually for (only being 7 at the time I just remembered the funny advert!) Now I know, I'm feeling a little disappointed ;)
Poundstretchers

I like the Prize Guy advert wasn't there a Prize Guy advert of them on the beach? That I like to see again.
