  • Actress Cindy Morgan is among the cast members of this vintage 1979 Irish Spring commercial, where life in pastoral Ireland is evidently all about wrestlin', carrying pocket knives, and endorsing bars of soap.

      Good thing you guys randomly carry a bar of soap so you can explain 'bathing'.

    To me this ad will always be remembered simply as "The Chest." Was 16 when this aired and my love for furry chests was hitting it's peak. It was a great time for a hairy chest-lover. Magnum P.I. was on TV every week with Selleck frolicking in the Hawaiian sun shirtless. The television movie "The Sacketts" was also around this time. Jeff Osterhage was in "The Sacketts" and, I kid you not, made his co-star Selleck look like he was almost smooth-chested in comparison, lol. If all that wasn't enough, Randy Powell was appearing on "Dallas" as Alan Beam, Lucy's conniving boyfriend, around this time as well. Powell was the only one to give Osterhage any serious competition in the chest pelt arena. Both were amazing!

    Wow, I looked for this commercial featuring the unbelievably hairy-chested wrestler and couldn't find it, until now. That chest amazed me back in the day when I would see this ad, and it still does today.

      Roma Downey says that she auditioned for these commercials but was rejected because she didn't "sound Irish enough" and was not going to be the Hollywood leprechaun (very commendable). They went with girls from Boston and Philly instead.

    Hey, as a typical North American- sounds close enough to an Irish accent to me. As far as I'm concerned, they should get the Oscar for best foreign film. Just kidding. I love ribbing our Irish brethren. And if they want to shower outdoors, it's OK with me.
