I like how he referred to conversation as a "talking episode"
Made me laugh so hard this comment did
That kid in the phonebox is fucking Leibgott from Band of Brothers. Holy shit.
The skinheid in the guardian advert was fully intending to mug the guy, he just saw the pallet tip at the last second and shat himself.
I hadn't seen it from your perspective before. I always thought the fella in the hat was attempting suicide by random construction site safety oversight.
The Sullivan's and Sons and Daughters reminds me of being off school sick and really bored. Not thought about this for over 30 years. Thanks for the memories.
I want Bob Hoskins to stalk me. "Go on, my son".
Kind of like a life narrator, but only for when you're on the phone to keep you on the ball
Unfortunately he's in the big phone box in the sky now. Rip big man.
@@feliz1443 Go on, my son, rip.
RIP BT advert. Gone, but never forgotten.
Miss you big advert
This is me with marijuana - don’t touch the stuff cos it sends me west - that I’m not go enough, terrified of social settings
We do be missing Bob these days.
Thanks for the uploads
The door is proper clever advertising innit - amusing, unexpected, acknowledged by The Hoskins, so it draws your attention, and also emphasises that a phone booth excludes people, even when they are * literally stalking you * and instantly takes your thoughts away from the first thing that comes to everyones' mind when they see someone going into a phone box - that unmistakable smell of years of months of days of piss
nowadays they'd just have a talking cockroach or something and you wouldn't even know it was about phone boxes until they showed the logo at the end - maybe, I dunno, I haven't seen a contemporary ad in years, don't trust me, I'm full of shit
this is the best comment of all time
@@mikeymantler1560 I strongly endorse the last 4 words
@@OkSharkeyyou *Endorse* them? Don’t let Limmy catch you misusing words like this, he’ll spend an hour on stream analysing what you said.
@@cam5556 I'm sure he'd look up the definition via the internet before making himself look silly
@@OkSharkey not sure whether you’re acknowledging that you used it wrong, or trying to say that I don’t know what endorse means. Either way, I think the word you are/were looking for is ‘emphasise’ or maybe ‘reiterate’
I remember that Sullivans intro as well... So depressing somehow on a weekday afternoon.
Had the pleasure of meeting BT Advert at a charity do once. He was surprisingly down to earth, and VERY funny.
@@thecraptaculargroup
😂funny as fck😂
...jees just brought back childhood memories and all the trauma ...ke..ke..ke..Cheers Limmy - no wonder we are all screwed in the head!
liebgott from band of brothers on the phone
Came here for this.
limmy watching all these aussie show intros is blowing my mind
The guy in the Guardian advert sounds like Biloxi Jones
Bob Hoskins treated you lot well-
EVEN WHEN YOU WAS OUT OF ORDER!!!!!!!
Take the high road, young doctors as well.
"Sons & Daughters - episode 6" has a decent bit of it, for those of us now obsessed 📺
@Jamie McCallum Referring to the overlap from the opening theme song into the dialogue, so just the beginning.
@Jamie McCallum Oh, no ploblem! I actually forgot that the BT advert was the whole point of this clip 🙃
@Jamie McCallum Do you want this mushroom?
Its good to talk
8:40 lmfao
He should do more of that type of stuff
9:20 But how did he know it was gonna fall ? the kid sprints for like 200 metres.
Im starting to think thats not real footage.
HAHAHA seconds later and yer man calls it.
Im playing this game too! Fkn class
Guardian fake news? Never.
im thinking he actually was mugging that guy but it just so happened some bricks fell at the same time
a public phone is a private phone
Bob Hoskins what a legend
Im almost 100% that the guy in that phonebox was in Band of Brothers EDIT: Its Liebgott!
Great spot!
Big tim so he is
I thought that too!! just looked it up
Green Street as well.
I was about to comment this!
Why don't the government do public information commercials any more? The fireworks ones put me off enjoying bombfire night as I was just so terrified of getting burnt
The one where the wee girl picked up a sparkler then held her hand up at the end. Disturbed me for life.
@@BrianFeral1 yes, that's the one I was thinking of. When my dad would hand us sparklers I'd feel like.... FFS Dad what are you trying to do to us!
A lot of the modern ads are run by organisations like THINK! rather than the government themselves. I think they realised scaring children shitless about every single possible scenario leads to a lot of unnecessary anxiety 😂
It's bonfire not bombfire. But Please tell me you've been saying Bombfire your whole life
@@callumc2061 I have indeed been saying bombfire my whole life.....it felt apt considering the origins and all that
This is a public service announcement
In the early 80s there were a bunch of Aussie soaps like The Young Doctors and Sons and Daughters which were shown in the afternoon and were utter shite. Then Neighbours arrived and everyone in the UK suddenly liked Aussie soaps.
Warren Randall If you aren't able to appreciate the beauty of early 80s Aussie soaps you'll need to give Prisoner: Cell Block H a massive swerve... you'll die of the cringe.
I think it was the flying doctors. My mum watched it.
That kid who dunched Hoskins with the door was in band of brothers
Going for gold with Henry Kelly.
School was alright, but it wasn't as good as watching the telly
3:01 If you are signed in you can say your not interested, but if you're not signed in there isn't much you can do.
A wise man once said said can’t done on purpose
Your accents are something else. I think I'm watching something else. Then I see your face
It's Kathy Burke in the Guardian ad!
thumbnail: carmageddon face
I bet Hoskins was fucking livid about the door thing, though.
you want a private toooolk ? You should take a wooooolk pmsl
Sons and Daughters - truly messed up
Love these
Lolololol hope you don’t wrap it around a lamp post?
love Limmy more for shitting on Jim Davidson
My OwN cAr
2:20 yeah cuz BT know that everyone is thinking.... "but that's contrived as f**k" because it is
Play it Safe magazine was a creepy thing back then do you remember it ?
The cockney accent cracks me up man hahaha half the time I have to really concentrate on what Limmy is saying and then he does a perfect cockney accent lol
Would have blew limmys mind if he knew the guy on the phone was Ross McCall from port Glasgow
was just about to say that, massive Celtic fan
He also played Liebgott in Band of Brothers.
Wasnt that guy on the phone in Band of Brothers ?
Maurenn Lipman is my 2nd Cousin, once removed.
Before the Sullivans
Just realised that young lad is in green street
That’s the This Is England sequel right
He's in Band of Brothers too :)
Shitest film I've ever seen
Without seeing if he finds it, I paused the video to write this, the advert with the punk was The Sun in around 1985, I was around 5 when it was on and remember it well, I'm 99% certain I'm correct
In case you didn’t watch the rest of the video, you were 99% spot on.
It’s a shame ya didn’t get to watch Number 96.
Why did BT even advertise? Who else could you use back then?
Talk to frank ? Was that it?
It's good to FACKING talk eh?
In retrospect, it seems almost impossible to believe those Hoskins/BT ads were real commercials. A slightly threatening, white guy with a bald head? We can't be doing with that, now!
And that Guardian ad seems like a huge oxymoron... like they care about the plight of the working class.
8:45 really caught me off guard and made me roar with laughter.
hmm
Where in the world are you getting all that nonsense from? Come down off the cross
Sycophants
Love your mug Limmy! (Your drinking vessel I mean)
His muffit*
Has limmy ever addressed why he doesn’t have TH-cam premium?
He's tight and he occasionally likes to chat about the adverts.
@@BennysBasement fair dos
Schools and Colleges
@6.35😂😂😂😂
Glesgee
Forgot about the sullivans. I fucking hated it.
honestly thought that guardian advert was from the 60s until it said 1986 lmao, the 80s were shite
That date is disgusting to look at
Which one is the fucking month?
The middle number you pair of dirty yanks
@@bobtom2633 Naebdy puts the year first!
@@abc-oq7dt look up how many countries do lol
@@bobtom2633 yer talking Chine, yer talking iran, yer talking north korea! Yer talking Nazi Germany, yer talking Canada and Afghanistan. I dont associate with such evil evil countries and their practices
I used to share a flat with an irishman and he used to listen to Sons and Daughters like I listen to Pink Floyd. And that fucking Cell Block H theme tune. lol
8:45
Did Bob slip into an American "Come ahhhhn" there? What's that about?
"come out of there"
Was the ad to sell their "friends and family" deal?
Also I’ve gotta say, I never really understood the point of phone boxes but I never considered that maybe you don’t want your mum and dad listening to your convo, makes perfect sense, I remember my brother using a phone box on holiday about 14 years ago to phone home to his girlfriend, that’s the only time I’ve ever known someone use one, I bet it’s not there anymore
We didn't have mobile phones. So phone boxes were how you made calls when you're out or away from home.
God I'm old.
The point of phone boxes is so you could call people when you were out. It's pretty obvious when you think of a world pre-mobiles 😂
I'm lost
Somebody needs to tell him about TH-cam premium so I don't have to watch somebody watch ads.
Adblock aye
Not giving youtube a fucken penny
