23:33 - I’d actually listen to this track, ad jingles back in the 80’s were some of the best!

Bloody hell, still have the game 'Knock Your Block Off'! Remember getting that at Christmas 1988. Great to go down memory lane!

Pls bring back some tv what we used to watch on a sat night in 1980s

Me. Installs ad block Also me. Spends 1:45.00 watching adverts

John shrapnel and joss Ackland have the best voices for voice-overs ever , takes you back to the 80s when I hear their voices.

God, I remember so many of these. Thanks for the blast from the past.

The funny thing is when they read the phone number on the British gas ad, i recognised it as though I was back in 1985.

Finally found an old ad I remember from when I was very little in this collection, thanks for uploading - even if the years vary a bit!

God that Wisk advert went on didn't it. Anyone would think it was a trailer for some Hollywood epic

The product itself was groundbreaking at the time the first non powder or bar soap for laundry . Lever forced to introduce it here by public pressure as USA had been able to use tide liquid for years by then .

Nice collection .....however if this is from 1985 how come it featured an ad for the sticker album called "Soccer 88".....?!!!

23 quid for that block game in 85 madness

Presto was the new larger branches of Liptons. The name came from the first store at Preston Grange, North Shields. They where mainly in the North East of England. In the early nineties they were bought out by Safeway. All gone now. I was a rep for Van den Berghs (oils and fats) and called on about 10 of their branches on Tyneside.

Trying to find a particular ad - I think it was in the 80s. Can't remember what it sold. It featured a piece of film of individuals repeating the same sequence of movements that were recorded at different times so they sort of laced their actions into a single clip. Anyone know it or know where I can find it?

I think adverts kept improving until the early 2000s, but nowadays they have to have 50 people on every advert so that every type of person is represented, and political correctness rules. The quality of the adverts have suffered as a result - the originality and humour has gone, and pushing social/political agendas seems to be more important than actually advertising products.
