Do you remember the one for the Bull Ring Shopping Centre ?
The only line I can remember is - "Come by bus or come by car, theres a place where you can park it" . . . . .
I vaguely remember a late 70s, early 80s ad about the Bull Ring. Can't remember the words, but it was sung in an awful cod-Brummie accent and had shots of people looking awestuck at the beautiful 1960s concrete structure enveloping them, containing all their retail dreams and aspirations.
Not exactly a jingle, but...
BT's 'Beatie' with Maureen Lipman.... ''An 'ology?!? He got an 'ology!...Anthony, you get an 'ology, you're a scientist!''

I visited central Birmingham recently to see the fascinating Back to Back houses.
When I realised that the fabled Bull Ring Shopping Centre was nearby, I broke into song believing myself to be Lenny Henry:
"At the Bull Ring Shopping Centre
There's a smile on every face.
And each shop there(?) that you enter
It's a most familiar(?) place..."
Oh the power of West Midlands advertising in the ATV region! There used to be a great toy shop in Leamington Spa which advertised on TV, so we went one day...
A finger of fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat
A finger of fudge is just enough until its time to eat
It's full of Cadbury's goodness and very nice to eat
A finger of fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat
I remember an old radio one that was by Captain Sensible for Kelloggs variety cereal.... Started off.....'Breakfast Breakfast what's for breakfast look inside the breakfast box....' wish I could remember the rest
and also remember... Transformers, more than meets the eye, transformers, robots in disguise
I think this was a carpet ad...! Said this before on other freds... Remember the guy for the carpet ads... Dressed in a Superman type of suit............. he was showing *more than he should...bit of a woganberry*:D:D:o
I know the one you mean. Ran for ages before someone noticed his bits. But can't remember the name. He should have been selling fruit and veg though
