One thousand and one ..

Hello Madam. I,m the Esso blee dooler, whilst delivering to a cartoon lady standing at the door in her nightie, very red faced and confused?

Urmstongran , it was Frank Muir,, Anyone remember Mr Max Factor of Hollywood now makes your dreams come true,

Don't forget the Fruit Gums, Mum!

All together now..
'All the dirt, all the grit,
Hoover gets at every bit,
cause it beats as it sweeps as it cleans'.
Unforgettable!

oh Nanah that has to be the cheesiest one of the night! I remember cringeing every time it came on

There was a bacon advert, which I think went:
Yummy yummy yummy, I've got room in my tummy for the big taste food of today

Mummy says I'm going to be a proper little madam - from a Clark's shoes advert

There are 2 men in my life ..to one I am a mother the other I am a wife ..I give them both the best with natural shredded wheat !!!!!!

Heaven's above Urmstongran, I'd forgotten about that one! We had an orange and green Cyril Lord carpet, back in the 60s, and it was horrible! Nylon tufts that you snagged your shoes and toe nails in and got huge electric shocks from! My mother thought it was beautiful!

Oh god. Just thought of another one WITH A SONG!
?

‘ ... wash it and the colour springs back,
Squash it and (....dum de dum)
This is the carpet, the family carpet
That’s built to last for years and years
and years and years and years and years (sorry but I’m singing it in my head & it did go like this!)
This is the carpet that you can afford
By CYRIL LORD!’
?

The best peas went to Farrows!

More Aussie ones.

Thanks Bathsheba for that! Wonder what it means? Must Google it now I can spell it! One thing leads to another doesn’t it?

(How to waste time without even trying).

I loved that series Cherrytree, it was like a mini soap opera! I think there were even adverts about the advert, teasing us about the next 'episode' due to air the following night - I may be wrong about that, but there is a vague memory that we knew when the next one in the series was due to air.

Piat d'or Urmston

"Bring out the Branston"!

The long running Gold Blend coffee saga
First ad was the girl at the door.... ☕

Nicole?
Papa!
Renault Cleo ad.

Bathsheba ?

‘Pi’a dor’ (?sp) wine ‘The French adore Pi’a dor’. I don’t think I’ve spelt it right. And I’m pretty certain the French didn’t love it! I remember mentioning it to a French girl at college asking if it was nice and she said ‘it’s crap’. Oh dear.

Yes Smiths crisps.
The Nescafé coffee advert with Sharon Maughm and Anthony Head.

this one urmstongran?

Was it ‘Smiths’ crisps that had the blue bag of salt in them annodomini?

On the edges of my memory is an ad for ‘Wagon Wheels’ with injun music and tomahawks....

Fresh cream cakes - naughty, but nice.

Roses grow on you (Cadbury's Roses chocolates)

And who remembers the Heat Electric ads? "For all your creature comforts..."

What has a hazelnut in every bite....
Pure milk chocolate for your delight...

Umbongo umbongo - they make it in the jungle

Only the crumbliest flakiest chocolate tastes like chocolate never tasted before ?
