Adverts were better than the programmes in the 80s.

Danny John-Jules had been doing Red Dwarf since 1988 and the Spearmint Polo advert was from 95/96. Before then Peter Sallis (Last of the Summer WIne/Wallace and Gromit) did the voice over for the adverts in 1980s.

I always felt sorry for the actor in the Flyte advert, we never saw his face either, the poor chap.

I've been humming this tune all way and saying some jibberish in a accent where he says juice loose moouse, did a quick search as i knew it was a sweet advert and within a minute i found this video, as i saw the thumbnail i knew it was the one, 7:14 👍 Thank you lol

The tune is taken from a song called "Hoots Mon" recorded by Lord Rockingham's XI and lots of cover versions. Several versions are available on KZread.

Couldn't identify the 'kisser' but the friend who walked in on her is Alexi Wasser who appeared in several other adverts for other products. The advert came out in July 2012 and so incensed the Daily Mail that they had two articles on it. One published on 5 August (www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2184059/Skittles-accused-bestiality-commercial-woman-kissing-walrus.html) and one on 29 August (www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2195315/Skittles-ad-showing-woman-making-WALRUS-attacked-promoting-bestiality.html) after a mother's group complained.

I don't know what video your teacher was orignally showing, but you would have to think why the KZread algorithm thought my compilation of sweets adverts would be the right one to show next! As for the struggling turtle/tortoise, he was drawn in the early 80s (I can't find the exact year) and transferring the advert from VHS to the computer meant that the thin line animation is not easy to see, but the sound is fine.

oh right yeah we couldn’t see the video and the original was an advert from 80s i think it was cause it was there first music lesson and we’re doing like music for adverts

Trying to find a 90s one done in a very Terry Gilliam Monty Python sort of animation with an old man on a bridge watching a steam train. Think it was for Wonka nerds or fizzy jerks.

I captured all of these adverts from old VHS tapes. I think the Kia-Ora advert came out in 1982 and to get a copy of it in the cinema you would have needed a video camera and a seperate recorder. The size of those two would have been fairly difficult to hide! It was shown on television later on, but Kia-Ora was the only drink you could get when you watched a film back then.

Was the entirety of the cast of Lock Stock And Two Smoking Barrels busy making candy adverts in the 90s?

Is the flyte advert set in the glades shopping mall in Bromley?

@LarryDors

2 жыл бұрын

The Glades opened in 1991 and the adverts were made in 1998, so it is possible. The few pictures I've seen of the inside look similar, but you really need to find some taken at Christmas near the top of one of the escalators where there was a statue (as passed by the policewoman).

They used a similar idea with washing up powder commercials at the time, asking people how they got on using the product. There's a bed commercial around at the moment that does the same thing (and looks just as false!).
