Adverts we like

VW Golf ad where glamorous woman ditches boyfriend ,throws fur coat away but hangs onto the keys of her GTI Golf

Oh yes!

Wasn't she a model, Paula? ** I think

Yes but her surname escapes me ,it also had a good soundtrack which I cant remember

It was Paula Hamilton and the music was Changes by Alan Price.

Nick Kamen stripping off his Levi’s and the Cadbury gorilla one. Both fir tge music spas much as anything.

For the music as much as anything….

I loved the For mash get Smash advert with the wee aliens!

Also, ghe sexy couple in the Cointreau ad, The ice melts.

Thanks GrannyPiper such a cute dog in the ad.

Joan Collins and Leonard Rossiter in the Cinzano advert on the plane.
Priceless 😁

Milk Tray, Hamlet Cigars, Old Spice, Harvey’s Bristol Cream sherry, Flake,…. all things bad or macho
Sunsilk Shampoo, Harmony Hairspray, Flash Powder with the Scottish woman. Dreft and Luxe soap flakes…. mainly quite sexist…
Coca Cola with The New Seakers, Homepride Flour, …..naive and amusing
But all very memorable
I barely watch any commercials on tv now and there are few that stick in the mind. Most are utterly tedious and condescending.

Does anyone else remember the cute Premium Tea ad from the early 60s with Primo, the comic cartoon bear?

Dum dum dum te-dum, te-dum dum dum....Gives you a sparkle. Premium Tea"

Oh, help! It was an ear-worm then and it's an ear-worm now I've thought of it again.

Oh, and I loved the Peugeot 405 ads featuring "Take my Breath Away." The only car ads that have ever come close to making me want the product!

A Finger of Fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat - still sing it to myself every time I see one.

I like all those mentioned and my favourite recent one is for J.P.Bell - it's the music that appeals to me .

I like the ads for Lloyd's bank as beautiful black horses are featured .

Do you remember the one for Birds Eye Chicken Pie in which the lady pretends that she made it herself ?

Not a tv ad, but years ago, I was in a cafe reading a newspaper and when I turned the page, it was an ad and picture of the new Jaguar Xf type - the punchline was ‘cat got your tongue’. Well, it got mine and I was lucky enough to get the car (I called it Kitty) a few years later.

Another clever one that tickled me was on a billboard. It was for Barclays Bank - the loan arranger. How do they think up these punchlines?

Oh and of course, Yellow Pages with JR Hartley and the Smash aliens.

And here is the Levis advert:

I can honestly say I don't remember many of the other adverts mentioned by others - I suppose some do just stick though..
I remember this Levis one though - and the Yellow Pages one and Smash.
I liked all these.

I think there were several quite good Levis adverts actually

One where a couple broke down and the car was towed by the Levis guy - and one involving a fridge.
Probably more..

The OXO ads with Lynda Bellingham and British Telecom with Maureen Lipman and her “……ologies”!

Any of the Specsavers ads. The vet trying to treat a cat, turns out it was the nurses fur hat , And the Astronauts arriving at the airport luggage carousel. ,, Always make me smile

I agree the Lloyds Bank black horses are beautiful, and I know the Lloyds symbol is the sign of the black horse, but the accompanying voice overs to the ads are just meaningless drivel. Nothing to do with the products and as for ‘always there for you’…tell that to customers whose branches have closed.

This my all time favourite - The AA dog: www.google.com/search?q=AA+dogad&rlz=1C5CHFA_enGB790GB790&oq=AA+dogad&aqs=chrome..69i57j33i160l3.5299j0j9&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:6bcdcfea,vid:_kq327Uw41E I found it on line so I can watch it at will and then found a video of how it was made.......and watch that too! Love it!
