10 Classic TV Adverts

Here's a selection of some classic tv adverts that I remember from my youth...

1) Kia Ora - I'll Be Your Dog not quite the Iggy Pop song.


2) Kinder Egg - Maybe one of the most disturbing adverts ever especially considering it was aimed at kids. Probably gave kids nightmares more than influencing them to buy an egg.


3) Um Bongo - One wonders what the inhabitants of the Congo would make of it especially as Mbongo is an Afrian creator God that vomits the Earth out!


4) Weetabix - Dunk was the leader, Brains was the intelligent one, Crunch was the muscle & Bixie was the female member of the group OK!


5) Shake n Vac - one of those adverts with a tune that has remained in people's memories for years.


6) R Whites Lemonade - I'm a secret lemonade drinker was written & sung by non other than Elvis Costello's dad with Elvis Costello helping out on backing vocals


7) Smash - For Mash Get Smash showed us the future... dried potato that just needs water to turn it into a tastless splodge.


8) Monster Munch - mmm Monster Munch....


9) Scotch Tape - Re-record not fade away, re-record not fade away...


10) Trio - a couple of stoners and a girl doing a Harry Belafonte impression, classic.
