There was a series of ads in around the late '90s for, I think, Little Chef (or maybe Happy Eater, one of those roadside chains) that featured ex-soap stars like Bill Waddington and possibly Sherrie Hewson, that had a copyright-skirting not-quite Corrie theme at the end and the slogan "That's right up my street." Haven't looked to see if any are on YT.

Starry, if you find the 90s BT Sharon one where she calls up old EE icons I will nominate you for a knighthood!

Kylie Minogue has had a few adverts on TV over the years with one of the most famous ones being for Pepsi while she was on TV singing On a Night Like This.

Seem to remember Sally Lindsay in one for (I think) Maltesers - possibly Twix - pre-Shelley.

The "soap advert" I haven't seen since it aired, and would love to (frustratingly I'm sure I used to have it on VHS) was the Carlsberg one that came on after Bet's last Corrie in 1995 - "Probably the best large hair in the world." Terribly groansome pun, but it was really effective; as I remember it came straight on as soon as the episode ended, unusually there wasn't even a break bumper or a trailer before it (presumably a special privilege spot granted to the advertiser).

So I'll add that to Letitia's BT ad for the YouTube Challenge (I think the episode was up there at one point, but it cut off during the end credits!)
