It was strange how Harris and others were ousted by the BBC etc but Savile & the rest of the real nonces were protected and hidden in plain sight at the BBC. John Lydon spoke about it in the 70’s and he reckons there are a lot still there so I don’t read too much into the Harris accusations, same as Jim Davidson and others because I reckon they were used as a smokescreen so Savile & the rest could carry on noncing.
F**k me this was 29 years ago! Some of these I havnt seen in all that time yet I remember so well I'm not sure I wanted some of the emotions and memories some of these ads brought back 🤔🙁🤐
In 1986-1989 I was aged 7/8 and 10/11, I'm now in my early 40s. It's amazing to see the different in the ads then and For example now you don't as many ads for alcoholic beverages unless watching add for budget supermarkets. Also there quite a few ads for banks /Building Societies now these are either much less or not as many. The mid-late 80s was the dawn o healthy eating so the likes fruit an fibre bran flakes and common sense Oatbran flakes for breakfast cereal or Gold, Vitalite, Blue Band and Flora for margarine in in era where spreadable butters had not yet arrived admittedly these would have been very much a middle class thing. I was brought up on semi-skimmed milk and Flora so we simply didn't eat tinned meat or drink limeade cherryade or orangeade because the artificial colourings.
@@Summer21. Cool that someone else remembers it. In 1989 I was 19 but didn't thinking back I would've thought I experienced the advert when I was 16ish. Perhaps it was broadcast for a couple of years?
I don't really think you know what the definition of Woke means. Maybe you should just stop hiding behind the definition you think it means and let us know what you really mean
That Daily Mirror ad is creepy. The Cathay Pacific ad is dated by that man's terrible mullet. Clearly at Cathay it's always a party in the back. Fern Britton looks very different.
Yeah it is more of a Goth look. I was 15 in 1989 and loads of 'posh' girls in my year at school looked similar. They were into bands like The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees & The Sisters of Mercy. I secretly fancied them but my mates preferred the 'Bros-ette' types..lol
standenberg Shame you had to hide it Goth girls when I was in my late teens was a big part of the reason I went out on Fri night Wild as hell some of them 😋
God that trumpet on the castrol gtx took me back to my childhood !!
Uh oh.... rolf harris
Yone Zawa nothing wrong with Rolf. Brilliant artist!
@@rmlectronicsuk2410 I hear Jimmy Savile was handy with a paintbrush too...
Hoksworth Wipple Excellent artist.
Hoksworth Wipple I don’t know that but he was a good artist.

Two showings for Julia Deakin from Spaced/I'm Alan Partridge here, one in the Madame Tussaud's ad, then again in the Orchard Midlands Bank ad.
What a year. Fruit Corners and Sprite. Truly the world would never be the same.
The Midland advert- "A new type of account for a new type of customer" i.e. an absolute knob.
@@octaviussludberry9016 Why would he? The bank's gonna fuck the knob anyways.
Announcer - On Thursdays join in with Rolf's cartoon club!
Me - Nah you're alright.
Lol nice one mate
Sorry, I'd Rather watch Tugs than That.
The castrol GTX ad is amazing and took me right back to when the 80's were fantastic 😎😎😎😎😎
I loved working at TVS.
"It's safe to leave the kids to watch this darling, it's only Rolf on the TV."
Nothing shows the sign of the times like the adverts. I remember some of these.
F**k me this was 29 years ago!
Some of these I havnt seen in all that time yet I remember so well

1:26 That's Julia Deakin (Marsha from Spaced and Jill from I'm Alan Partridge)
Gwasgray *wine cork pops
Yaaaaay
I think it is her at 13:00 too
Billy Shearer it is, well spotted. And the funny thing is, like Marsha, she’s having words with her daughter who’s legging it down stairs!! 😂😂
Brilliant loved all this, Thank you
Arguably THE advert of 1989 has to be that Sprite one
Real lemon and lime!!!!
That young girl on the " Maddam Tussauds " advert plays Phil Collins and Julie Walters Daughter in Buster
Ellie Beaven
I remember her from the BBC 1 kids show The Wild House in the mid/late 90's too! Used to love that show 😊
OMG! Fern Britton, awesome!
Who’s here on Easter Monday 2024? 😂
0:55 "The walls of Birmingham wiped clean of pea and ham"
I remember this so well and have been (sadly) longing to find out what advert it came from.
LAnonHubbard I do remember that Dulux paint advert back in 1989 when I was between the age of 6/7 as I was born almost in the middle of the year. 😃
@@Summer21. Cool that someone else remembers it. In 1989 I was 19 but didn't thinking back I would've thought I experienced the advert when I was 16ish. Perhaps it was broadcast for a couple of years?
I remember this delux ad very well almost word for word
1:22, I think that's Marsha from Spaced.
Julia Deakin, it is indeed. And she turns up again later in the Orchard ad.
Dave Quinnan from The Bill 😂
That Hula Hoops ad! 🤯
Trying to figure out who the singer was. Was it Cab Calloway.
30 years ago
lol Alexander meerkats first TV appearance 22:55
Is there anything more 80's than a Benetton adverts, all style over substance!
They were on the forefront of "woke" advertising. Now most ads feel like that, sadly.
I don't really think you know what the definition of Woke means. Maybe you should just stop hiding behind the definition you think it means and let us know what you really mean
0:39 😂 ❤
Missing at 0:49:
"May the doors of Wales dry hard as nails,
The loos of Looe be smooth and fine.
May Derby's halls dry even..."
The pic of star trek the motion picture has the wrong ship
Hula Hoops commercial, you wouldn't get away with that today
You can't get away with FA today.
@@MrWings11 exactly, just ask Rolf Harris
The Paula Abdul song on the NOW 14 advert is Straight Up. Yes I didn’t know that, moving on.
FLAT HEAD FISHER!
Thank you!!
star trek and james bond movies in the same day nice
Find it funny how everyone in these adverts drives a Sierra.
The actor at 5:38 is currently on UK Drama as the curate on Classic EastEnders
He was in also Red Dwarf and various other sitcoms. His bank Boss in the ads was Gary Waldhorn aka David Horton in the Vicar of Dibley
Rolf Harris's Cartoon Club smacks differently these days.
Isn't he from The Bill, the young bloke in the Danish Bacon ad?
Yes
Andrew Paul who played Dave Quinnan
Tony stamp
I have the sealife centre ad music on a record. Cool!
11.15 - Nick Berry
No
Fruit Corners turned the yogurt world on its head.
That bandq advert was good
I was 10 in 89
Wish I was able to go back into time and reveal what Rolf Harris really is!
OMG, how shit is the Nike Air advert?
I find the Coco Pops advert as annoying now, as I did when I was 14!!
The Nike air advert they where the days
That Daily Mirror ad is creepy. The Cathay Pacific ad is dated by that man's terrible mullet. Clearly at Cathay it's always a party in the back.
Fern Britton looks very different.
17:57 I thought the new romantics died out 5 years before this ad break
Yeah it is more of a Goth look. I was 15 in 1989 and loads of 'posh' girls in my year at school looked similar. They were into bands like The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees & The Sisters of Mercy. I secretly fancied them but my mates preferred the 'Bros-ette' types..lol

Shame you had to hide it
Goth girls when I was in my late teens was a big part of the reason I went out on Fri night
Wild as hell some of them 😋
P.S. who is the girl in the Midland Bank advert?
Rolf Harris. If only they knew back then.
The Cathay Pacific advert at the end is so sinister!
