jma78b Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Now you're going to have to be bordering on old codger staus to remember these."Double Diamond works wonders, works wonders" and "Watch out, watch out, there's a Humphrey about" Anyone remember what the last one was about.? I remember all those. :( Must be an old codger (when did that happen?) What was the Humphrey ad about? Have to go google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIIIDAA Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I like the Mikado advert with the girl on the photocopier trying to get the chocolate sticks and then getting caught ....:D She is hot!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuartM Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 All the Marshans rolling around with laughter - awww they were dead good! Which advert was it where you had to "follow the bear"? I think it was some beer ad? Was that not the Hofmeister advert?? We never got that advert in Scotland but I used to see it on my granny's telly in London when on holiday.

jma78b Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Wasnt Unigate the only milk provider in those days? I dont know, cant remember. I was only little! The Sid advert was good though I cant understand the relevance of Sid but I think they wanted a name cos the Humphrey advert was so so good. Ah good times :) I'm actually liking the "retro" ads they seem to be showing now. Definitely aimed at the 40 something person. The new Green Giant ad, the Green cross code man is in another ad and the Du Pain, Du Vin Du Boursin, Le Tracteur! Appeals to my warped sense of humour.

Babybel Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I have a freeview recorder, so I just skip the adverts when watching all my telly! I hate those SOFA adverts though, they drive me mad. As for adverts I like I like those Harbio ones and I love those old super noodle ones :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Air Hostess Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Was that not the Hofmeister advert??We never got that advert in Scotland but I used to see it on my granny's telly in London when on holiday. The bear was called "GEORGE" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hedgepig Posted April 25, 2009 Author Share Posted April 25, 2009 The bear was called "GEORGE" Kristal, I'm impressed--you've passed your first advert test---indeed he was called George. Try this for size--not long ago but certainly a classic advert made by Renault: And then there was this one made famous by Walls: Sausages As you can see I'm so busy watching adverts that I rarely get out....................................

Love the Castlemaine XXXX advert, I'd forgotten that one! Just thought of another two: And, just for good measure how about this one: That's my chocolate fix sorted for today!!!! ;) ;) As I'm writing this another of my favourite ads is playing in the background....."compare the meerkat.com"!!
