Up until recently you couldn't go through an ad break without being inundated with commercials offering you loans. Since the credit crunch has kicked in I've seen far less of them (good thing, too.)
Has anyone seen the Lombard talking telephone recently? |

Can you still get all these, I wonder? And where would they advertise anyway?
Strange, some of those products had legendary adverts... Hovis 'our Dad were a great baker...' Funnily enough, Bisto was in the OP, and I heard a Bisto ad on the radio the other day. |

Birds-Eye Rissoles. "with that savoury, spicey farmhouse flavour."
I remember the commercial from decades ago, because that nonsense of a line. |

Some of these suggestions from DS posters certainly bring back a lot of memories...
I remember most of them, though. You don't seem to see many proper adverts on TV these days, except for compensation, online bingo ads, car ads, or other mundane rubbish. Most ads these days don't even make any sense and they barely mention the product that they are supposed to be endorsing. Anyway, I had a think about this thread and came up with these Smash Potato - "Mash Get Smashed", with those robots. I remember this being on TV a lot when I was a child. Fresh Cream Cakes - "Naughty But Nice" Brut Aftershave Advert - "The Essence Of Man", lol. I seem to recall Kate Moss advertising this at one point. I am too young to remember the old Kevin Keegan and Henry Cooper ads, though, but I also remember Paul Gascoigne advertising this in the early 1990s. Birds Eye Potato Waffles - "They're Waffley Versatile" Typhoo Tea "You Only Get An Oooo With Typhoo". I think that Kenneth Williams used to provide the voiceover for this advert. It was a very similar soundalike if it wasn't him! I seem to remember that it was a very camp voice and sounded very much like Mr. Williams. I may be able to think of more, given time... |
