Some brilliant stuff in there. The Duke of Bedford trying to give the impression that he takes an interest in floor cleaners. And the National petrol ad is a work of art.
I remember Fairy soap it had a lovely smell it's a pity you can't buy it today, but they still do the washing up liquid which I still always use to this day! it's lovely.
Lovely nostalgia of a great time. Not one mobile phone or laptop. I loved George Best when he played for Man Utd. I have saved this and will watch again maybe when I am eating a Cadbury flake although they are difficult to find nowadays.
Wow. Non- deposit bottles. A great and then novel innovation. Leading to current landfill nightmares and sowing the seeds of our throw-away society. But it's great to see the girls doing the washing and silly old cleaning, as the chaps souse themselves in Fore. .and you know that when the Fairy had done its job, she could chomp on a Flake. Thems was the days, when ...things...happened...after a nice bath, playmates
Yes Pete. Thanks for the memory. I was a scout and at Gilwell (not sure of the spelling) We went around searching for bottles and made a tidy sum on returns.
Public information films were not “ads” . There were no “ads” on British TV until 1956 when Lew Grade and Cecil Bernstein got their licences to print money
Don’t watch broadcast TV at all: haven’t got a set. Have been campaigning against its existence since the ‘70s. Proposed V on D in the seventies but haven’t received a penny. Am wholly opposed to video funded by advertising.
Remember the carpet one.and a few others, Trebore mints, shampoo and soap one's, not all. But boy remember putting carnation milk on tinned fruit for desert, definatly wouldn't now, so sickly. Loved flake. I didn't got to Butlins but my younger brother and sister did. They loved it, all the rage then for holidays. But the Players cigerretts one was so corny.
If I'm not mistaken that looks like the 1962 built Coventry station foyer in the Inter City ad at the end? Mum & dad nearly went for the £10 Pom scheme too. I don't know why they didn't but I drew a plane in infants school and talked about it.
......when smoking was as per and coal was king.....cole, that is!...best ad?...Players at Polperro; although in some undefined way, which I can't put my finger on, I'm drawn to the Cadbury's Flake ad......
Simmers biscuits look disgusting. We had a Drambuie bottle with a candelabra in it. 4:58 is that Mr Blewett from Dad's Army (also seen in Are You Being Served)?
Adverts could be quite entertaining then, and the jingles memorable and catchy. No they are just plain irritating and many are too long. Advertisers should take note, an entertaining ad is more likely to generate more sales than an irritating over-long one.
Absolutely brilliant ... thank you very much indeed for bringing back wonderful memories.

Oh yes this is how advertising should be today I love looking 👀 looking back at theses 👍 great post
I always wanted to go to Butlins when I was a kid and my dad wasn't having it. I look back and realise how much he cared about me. ❤😅💯👍❤

It was nice to see Young Mr Grace as an even younger man!!
You find it hard to buy a perkins biscuit nowadays, lucky am a retired baker with a recipe which I do sometimes.
British adverts make anything sound sophisticated, even Australia. 😁
oh wow, its so nice to see Young Mr. Grace in his home at 4:50
Harold Bennett?

What struck me was how well spoken everyone was in the adverts …( apart from Alf Garnet 🤣🤣)
And his son in law
Hammered lol
Is that not the truth . We had our dialects, true (like Cockney) but many spoke clear English unlike todays Essex slang and that awful Estuary speak.
I think the players advert was filmed at Polperro in Cornwall.
Yes. I agree. It looked like Polperro ( it hasnt changed much).
I like the traffic free ad. There were only about three people who owned cars on the estate where I lived. 😅
I only remember the very last ad. Liked the romantic cigarette ad.
The days when Wagon Wheels were big.
last one, the ice cream van was Bernard Cribbins

Would you want to go back to when the BBC had a monopoly on broadcasting? I doubt it.

Loved them!
Ah, public information films with stop-motion squirrels. One of those taught me to clean my teeth ineffectively for the next forty years or so.
Amazing-Where on Earth did find these!?
Butlin's where everyone enjoys everything, that's quite a claim
Not now,Britain no longer has a British culture. So sad.

You know that some of the most famous ad's are not shown on here, I'm in my 70s , and anyone would remember "you're never alone with a Pall Man".
I think it was Strand cigarettes.
@@colinrogers6193 thanks your correct, can't think why I thought Pall Mall
13:39 That's definitely NOT the brain of a Sun reader!! 🤭🤣🤣🤣🤣
…..the last one got me like “😯😮😧😨”
Was that Jacqueline Bisset in the "National" ad? Did women look generally healthier and classier back then, or what?
Translation for the states '' Biscuits =Cookies .
Fun Fact: Maria cookies are the Mexican equivalent to British digestives.
Cookies are definitely NOT biscuits! Totally different.
The tufty club at the end there..
I wonder how many 'British people' were created at Butlins holiday camps?
Save 4 bob in the £1 on train fares. Those were the days. Ha ha 😅🤣🤣🤣🤣
......when smoking was as per and coal was king.....cole, that is!...best ad?...Players at Polperro; although in some undefined way, which I can't put my finger on, I'm drawn to the Cadbury's Flake ad......
At 8:48 ...Peanuts don't come from the jungle...they come from Georgia!!!!!!

What is it about biscuits in these clips lol.
Biscuits comprise about half the caloric intake of Britons.
@@dorianphilotheates3769 Can confirm, lol.
Bruhh....the flakeee
I just came here to see what The Beatles boys saw on telly when they watched it
13:31 - Only 4 quid and change for shoes?
Britain’s number one nut
Nigel Farage? 😆
🤔 so players are what we might call " a metaphor"?
16:55 Max Bygraves?
Nope! He once appeared on the Jack Benny television program in the early 1960s here in America. 😁
before the kalergi plan was heavily put into action
how many people today go out to the cinema dressed like that ?? we smoked our players together and got cancer together and died together.
