Posted December 3, 2010 Was having a trip down nostalgia lane on YouTube, and it's amazing how many of these ads I can still quote word for word. I wonder if, in 20 years time, we'll remember the (currently annoying) GO COMPARE ads in the same way? So, get on YouTube and post those ads you remember as a kid, from toys to choccie biscuits, go nuts. We should get a good mix here with some oldies, like me and Mr Odwin (sorry fellow old timer!) to you younger lot. Armadillos! They drink it in the Congo apparently I'll be your dog Robin Hood And my absolute favourite, remember watching it in stitches as a kid! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 3, 2010 haha I remember those adverts (except the carling one). I loved the armadillo one when I was younger, it always made me laugh. Never knew it was Harry Enfield until now though. Old Trio adverts. They were the nicest chocolate bar ever. Discontinued now though I think Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 3, 2010 (edited) I don't exactly want to bring the mood down already, but this is an advert that I still remember from when I was young. To be honest, I found it pretty scary back then.. particularly the guy with the long hair entering the pub I would imagine most of you will never have seen it Edited December 3, 2010 by nekunando Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 3, 2010 Stop posting Youtube videos! I can't view them because of this backward country and their irrational fear of the internet! uh... I mean... Four Legs Good, Two Legs Bad! *whimper* Anyway, I loved Trio toffee bars... TRIIII-O TRIIIIIIO! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 3, 2010 Sorry Iun I thought this advert was brilliant, can't believe it got banned This advert has been banned by the A.S.A. in the U.K and Republic of Ireland, this is due to 700 complaints recieved because this ad made some viewers physically sick. For those of you who can't see youtube for whatever reason it's a chewing gum featuring a dog coming out of a man's mouth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Especially the slanty eyes bit! http://www.spike.com/video/bugs-bunny-nips-nips/2722449 And this. Great lips Anyway, back to the ads. I remember this being banned because everyone at school was doing it. Like it stopped us! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This Milky Way ads recently made a comeback, but this is the older longer version... and from a better time when Milky Ways used to be chocolate coloured on the inside!

Posted December 6, 2010 Toy adverts mainly stay in my memory... Mr Frosty - "Mr Frosty He's such fun, he makes treats for everyone!" Mr Bucket -"Mr Bucket, fire's ball from my mouth..... Mr Bucket... Buckets of fun" - Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The problem is that it's actually full moon, crescent moon, and new moon. That always annoyed me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
