Yes they were great - and you know it's being brewed in Manchester again? By JW Lees.

It's too orangey for crows, it's just for me and my dog.

We all adore a Kia-Ora.

I liked the Hamlet Cigars one that was split into three mini ads (beginning/middle/end of the break) with the Aborigini throwing boomerangs and they didn’t come back. So he smoked a cigar and they all came back. Or was it a beer brand?

This one because it made me appreciate not having to cycle on cobblestones or eating brown bread.

"I ate a hundred packets in a day once."

"Accrington Stanley - who are they?"

Don't need to post the videos.

Came on to say the Guinness surfer ad but beaten to it by SlowOldMan

otherwise the old Lionel Blair cut is surely part of our collective consciousness?

Annoyingly youtube seems to think this is an advert for Tennent's Lager. It's not, it's an ad for Caledonian Best. It's Frankie Miller singing I liked both of them

Sorry, but I can't endorse the op's selection...

If you look at the last bit you'll see that the kid is riding the wrong way into a one way road.

Not strictly an advert, but, years ago, watching Poltergeist 2 (IIRC) in the cinema. There was a scene where an Indian Chief (again, IIRC) was sprinkling a circle of white powder on a room to keep the Poltergeist at bay. Then someone in the cinema chirped up with:

'Do the Shake n' Vac, and Put the Freshness Back'!

Totally ruined the moment, but the whole audience burst out laughing. 🙂

For me..

Carling (Dambusters)

Guinness ( Surfer)

and Boddingtons (Trollies)

all got it just right

Sketchy film quality ,but I like the 'Dancing man' one as he looks like my pal Harry

Not a fan of car adverts,but this VW independent films one always makes me smile

Sorry, only skimmed the thread but for me it's:

 

"We hope it's chips, it's chips."

 

"With mild clean, fairy liquid"

 

But....

The best were the government ones telling us to close a farm gate or not to touch high voltage pylon lines etc. 

 

Honourable mention the the "world's first natural born smoker" and the Aids one too. 

 

Jeebus, the AIDS one terrified me as a kid in the 80s. 

 

Now AIDS is classed as a manageable disease, utterly incredible how far science has come.
