OMG! That's brilliant! I've never seen it before. :D

TV ads used to be so much more entertaining than they are now. Today it's all insurance ads, arty car ads and stuff with dysfunctional families in it. All disposable and unmemorable. For entertainment you can't beat the 'for mash get Smash' martians, Leonard Rossiter's cinzano ads, and the secret lemonade drinker. Not forgetting Lorraine Chase's "nah mate, Luton airpowt" and Sandra Dickinson's St. Bruno ad. Anyone remember Cresta Bear?

Tee hee. Bank train station. Funny.

Of course, it was filmed at Liverpool Street, which is the next station east on the Central line.

:( I am very confused as to what I said! I saw it on a screeeen there! Should I have said "tube" station? If so, pedant. :P

Yes!

Although I would have just said Bank. Or perhaps Bank station for non-Londoner clarity.

May already have been mentioned but;

All Hamlet Cigar ads, particularly Baldy Man in photo booth.

Carling Black Label (Dam Busters)

and there was one with Griff Rhys Jones imposed onto a B&W film - ended with him looking through a couple of beer glasses as spectacles. Can't remember the damned product though!

Specsavers?

Ha! No, it predated spectacle stores.

The new Cadbury's advert is fantastic.

Freestyle - Don't Stop The Rock = tune!

Freestyle - Don't Stop The Rock = tune!

Is that what it is? Good tune.

Yes it is. It's from the 1980s.

It was acceptable in the 1980s

*goes off to find*

Bacardi, Hernandez Autos, Ray from Reef Radio. From the 90s and I doubt anybody remembers. Hysterical.
