I liked the one where he gives his girlfriend his dinner after the dog's been at it, but I can't remember what it was now.
I used to like this too.0 -

Milky bar kid is strong and tough
'Wake up in the morning wanting some breakfast; What Margerine do I spread on my bread; Ohhhhh Ohhhhhhhhh, Vitalite; Thats Right.' From 1993 advert.
the red car and the blue car had a race
all red wants to do is stuff his face
he eats everything he sees
from trucks to prickly trees
but good old blue he took the milky way
he's looking for a chocolate treat
fluffy and light
cos he knows it won't spoil his app-e-tite
mm mm MMMM!
oh no! the bridge has gone, poor old red just can't carry on
but good old blue, he took the milky way
Reading that I could see that ad clear as day in my head:D

i remember one from when i was a child- sometime in the 80s, i think this was. it was basically all about keeping your chocolate in the fridge in the hot weather :rotfl: the jingle was something like:
Bounty and Marathon, on a summer's day
From the fridge!
KitKat, Topic and Milky Way
All of your favourites, deliciously cool
Straight from the fridge
That's the summertime ruuuuuuuuuuuuule
all accompanied by visuals of people smiling and clutching chocolate bars. i brought this advert up in work last summer- nobody remembered it. please tell me someone here remembers this one??0 -

A dear friend of mine sang on one of the earlier flake ads, now she is no longer with us they make me cry!Slightly bitter0 -
Woolworths Christmas ad 1981 - 'have a cracking Christmas at Woolworths' - guaranteed to get stuck in the brain.
Limara bodyspray ad 1981/2 - 'remember my name' - sung by Stevie Lange.
Cadbury ad from around mid 70's - 'everyone's a fruit and nutcase'.
I will be back with more, love old ads, also (and this is sad) I like watching the regional closedowns before it all went 24/7 at the end of the 80's. A website called TV Ark has a lot of this old stuff.0 -
I want to teach the world to sing
in perfect harmony
Its the real thing (Coca Cola)
Cant remember all the words. Also, very old
You'll wonder where the yellow went when you brush your teeth with Pepsodent.The forest would be very silent if no birds sang except for the birds that sang the best0 -
Oochiepoochie - I remember that commercial, its the Mars Cool Em advert from early 80's - 'chocolate on the rocks'.0

Another vote for the Tango man.
Also, Virgin Radio...tune in or next time he's naked.
I also love the John West ad where the guy kicks the brown stuff out of a bear for his salmon.
The kitkat advert where the guy waits all day for the Pandas to come out, turns his back to eat his kitkat and the pandas appear on rollerskates.0 -

quick look on youtube- that's a different ad to the one i was thinking off but i remember that one too! 1981- blimey, that makes me feel old...
i can remember all the adverts with the children sneaking into electricity sub-stations (to retrieve frisbees and the like) and getting killed, too. god, they gave me nightmares :eek:0
