Such great social history. The Oxo one in particular is interesting - putting gravy on kebabs?? It shows I think how food in the UK had been very limited (and bad) for a long time, and it was really only in the 80s when food from elsewhere became a bit more mainstream. It was a novelty to a lot of people, and many didn't really know how to eat it. Even now, you still occasionally see people in Italian restaurants trying to cut spaghetti with a knife.
Merry Christmas from all the lads on the Ark Royal.

That Smarties advert was way ahead of it's time 2:38
Boycie in a tea ad!
Certainly a lookalike if not.
It was definitely John challis . He had been doing only fools for five years by this! They just got rid of the tashe for the advert!
I could do with a d bit of different meaning now haha love all these x
I wonder who did the voice on the Scotch videotape advert. I always thought it sounded like Deryck Guyler.
Oh yes.
Was that boycie in the brooke bond d advert
I've got that exact Seiko
I’ve got a Seiko too. They’re the best, like Japanese cars and electrics and cameras!
I think this is later that 1986. I seem to recall that D tea ad was from late 80s?
A young Sam West describing the Blockbusters game?
17:30 "I could do with the D" , implies something completely different today
What? (yes I naïve)
No, it's not Sam west. Dunno who he is but Sam didn't look like that when he was 20.
When did they stop making coloured toilet 🚽 paper?
They didn't. you can get it anywhere.

Every hise has a lainge
Followed shortly after by stating the wine wasn't real!
