Odd isn't it, you'd do anything to avoid ads back then, cheered when you could skip them on sky; yet here I am am watching adds taking me back to my youth.
Muhammad Ali 😂 sending himself up. Brilliant ❤. He was the greatest
Wonderful, though I imagine the Busy Needles singer needed therapy afterwards.
If the freezer woman didn’t get extra ‘housekeeping’ where did she get the money to stock up the freezer!
FLORA LIGHT - it brightens my day!
I'm so glad I found you on TH-cam Steve, I've always loved adverts, in fact when I was a toddler in the early 70's, my Mum said I preferred them to the programmes! Adverts seem to have lost their way these days, probably due to cost, so it's fantastic you're creating these video's, I can see you put a lot of work into creating them. Keep up your excellent work!👍🏻
Cheers. My parents used to say exactly the same thing back then; the adverts are better than the programmes.
I absolutely love these. Much better than many of the ITV programmes they would have popped up in between.
Wow loved this video. Takes me back to when life was so much simpler glad I lived through this time I’m 60 now and could do it all again.
"Join the men in mining "...straight onto a picket line 🤣
Yeah, my first thought was "just wait until the 80s kick in!" 🤣
My God Steve, you bring the good ol, times back. I watch these now and it makes my christmas feel like it used to. Again, thank you!
That 1 about getting hired to work down the coal mines actually made me feel sad knowing what was going to happen to them in the 80's under Thatcher 😢😢
Yes. Every generation of the men in my family before me were coal miners. My grandad died shortly before I was born from medical complications caused by his job. It makes me angry now to see companies again putting profits before people.
@@RetroSteveUK yes, it's like the late 70s again, another winter of discontent...
Genuine question : would the coal mines have closed eventually even if Maggie hadn’t closed them when she did ? In other words, were they a dying industry ?
@@nigeljames6017 Labour closed more mines than the Tories did.
@@KillieGuy1 Really ? I was quite young at the time, but I do remember the miners strikes and the rolling blackouts. Politics was way beyond my realm of comprehension then and now I’m sat her in the U.S trying to put back the pieces of what I left behind in my own country.
Busy Needless sold one copy. And that was to the advertising agent.
That McDonald’s at Telford shopping centre is still there… and I used to love that Mullerice advert, had that song in my head for years.
So is Sainsbury’s
Nostalgia overload! Brilliant! Thankyou. Rich
I remember the Muhammad Ali and his Mum ads. Great memories.
Jeeezuz, I remember the JTS, it must have been 1984/5 when I was leaving school. I got put into what they called CTF.
5:20 - Delight cheese - The music is the classic song "The Lincolnshire Poacher". The tune was also used for the novelty song, "The Thing", popularized by Phil Harris.
Also used as a signature tune for a creepy numbers station.
Aah so that’s we’re Chock ice and Chips came from 😂
Better quality than the TV shows on TV nowadays
Brilliant, some good memories 👍
I really fancy a beef burger now! 😁
Muhammad Ali also used to be the spokesman for Ovaltine in the 1970s
Choc ice and chips? 😂 Don't tell your mother! ❤
Brilliant selection. Thank you.
Wish Kwik save would come back… 👍👍
The Mullerice advert was wonderful. Thanks for another great compilation Steve.
This is brilliant! So many forgotten brands. How do you get such high quality videos?
I can't add detail that isn't there, but the lighting levels and such can be manually corrected in video editing software. I remove background noise separately in audio editing software. After that, the TV frame hides any VHS glitching that normally appears around the edges.
@@RetroSteveUK it looks really good, thank you! It's great to be able to watch these again! 👍
@@RetroSteveUK
The guy in the flora advert was Andrew Paul Aka Pc Dave Quinnan from the Bill
@@centrevezgaming4862 Oh, that's right. I thought he was from London's Burning until you mentioned that.
I dont half love these , thank you 🙏📺🤗Sonique
"No need to check your eyes" hahaha
That is a good one. 😂
7:12Crikey, he was coming in a bit enthusiastically in his Austin Maestro there. Obviously couldn't wait to get into the Telford Shopping Centre, and who can blame him. I wonder how many takes it took or did he nail it first time.
Love the job centre advert I ended up in a charity shop working for nothing definitely got experience 😅🤣 and kwick save my dad got everything out of there but brands lots of no frills the no frills was a lot later than the advert though
Back then our Local Kwik Save started as a Bishops, then a Budgens. After it was Kwik Save it became a Somerfield. It's now a Co-op. Over the years it changed from a proper supermarket to what it is now - a convenience store. Shame, really.
I remember the No Frills mince pies won one of these snobbish Best Mince Pie taste tests one year. Laughed my **** off.
I wonder if that low fat cheese commercial was made before the Trades Description Act? There has never been a low-fat cheese that was edible in my experience. Maybe they succeeded with it in the UK.
Love the way this channel is presented, as though you are watching this memorable selection on an old fashioned telly. What the heck happened to Kwik Save? I remember shopping there to make the pennies go further. P.s I know they are not featured here but very disappointed in the route Cadbury's have taken with their "Roses" wrappers, ditching the original ones for just plain coloured boring ones. So will be buying two tins of "Quality Street" this year instead.
There was a Kwik Save near my childhood home. We did all our shopping there. It's just a generic Coop convenience store now. Very much downsized.
Our Kwick Save was quite a big one with an Iceland in half of the building, not sure if they were the same company. It’s knocked down and there’s a Tesco there now.
With the Roses wrappers: it’s not just that the wrappers are plain and boring, they’re design to take more space so you don’t get as many in the box.
in the flora advert is that dave quinnan from sun hill nick [the bill]
Apparently so, yes.
Genuinely incredible some of these adverts 😂😂😂 adverts are so depressing and miserable these days.
The Miners job advert! Hmm, obviously pre Thatcher years, she destroyed that once proud British industry and whole communities with it!!
😞
Join the MEN in mining 💪And ogle the nurse wearing Pretty Polly tights (who wears glasses to show that she's Intelligent)
Never even spotted Ali started suffering with Parkinson’s in those ads. So obvious now.
No need to test your eyes was funny.
Yep, a classic that one. 😂
Busy needles magazine is a bit jazzy....
How did the Telford song not get to number 1...?
Damn right! .. Still in my head right now!! 😁🎶
Even the adverts s were better in those days.
The one with the mum in hospital and the dad cooking food out the freezer and she said she’s doesn’t have to ask for more house keeping….. oh my. So glad I don’t live in that world now.
What happened to kwik save ?
They were bought out by FreshXpress in 2007 which then subsequently went bust a year later. The remnants of FreshXpress now exist as CostCutter shops.
Ahh the Royal mail trying to get us to buy stamps
They don't care about letters anymore. "We are a parcels company managing the decline of mail."
7:10 no seatbelts required for the kids back in the 80's. We were built of stronger stuff back then 💪
Not really. Child deaths in cars from lack of seat belts halved after the law changed (and their use became ubiquitous.)
@@ChantingInTheDark Error: irony.exe could not be found. Please reboot and try again.
@@phantomracer1050 - It's not an ironic statement though, certainly not since you added the "We were built of stronger stuff back then 💪" part, which indicates you mean it, hence no irony.
