That Oxo ad is weirdly meta and self-referential: "all I can say is thank goodness for commercials", said no normal human being ever. EXCEPT when watching them thirty years later on TH-cam, of course 😁😆
I remember that Birds Eye country club advert, great animation. Also like the buttah advert dropped in the middle of all of the adverts for low fat dairy products.
Hi .. new subscriber to you .. great to watch the tv and think back to how good adverts were then .. unlike now where there’s no comedy and it’s full of crap ordinary Britons can’t relate to !!!… great channel 🎉🎉🎉
The ending of the Constable's The Hay Wain advert (5:45) was visually fun, but I could've done without the xenophobic "it don't look English" nonsense in the earlier part of the ad: "It's soft and mild. Right nice is that - we wouldn't want any of that foreign muck, like flavour. Oo-ar."
The narrator of the Moulinex ad has been quietly nagging at the back of my mind since Friday, but I now realise that it's Peter Egan. Or, at least, I'm pretty certain it is - can anyone confirm my belief or instead correct me?
Did countertop ovens do well in the UK? Once microwaves became affordable in the US, you would never see anything like an actual oven other than a regular one. It's funny how Heinz is a US company, but they only sell ketchup and steak sauce in the US. Seeing cheese outside the US makes me jealous. Good proper cheese, unless it's cheddar or a "jack" cheese, is either very difficult to find or it's stupidly expensive for Americans. Instant gravy might be the one convenience food most Americans don't use. The ad with the pig looks cursed. Why was milk in a tub?
@@jwb52z9 Countertop ovens (or hobs, as we call them) are pretty standard over here. Microwaves are only generally used for heating things up, not cooking. Now, air fryers - they're going great guns over here right now.
@jwb52z9 I know countertop ovens exist in the UK (they're more commonly called mini ovens here), but I've never seen one in the wild, as it were - they're something only people with really limited space would generally have, would be my guess. (Toaster ovens, also, are basically not a thing here.) If by milk in a tub you mean the St. Ivel Gold, don't worry, it's not milk 😄 It's a low fat butter spread, made with semi-skimmed milk. But I can see why you might think it was a tub of milk from that advert if you didn't already know the product.
Fantastic another set for my playlist really enjoy these
You might like the playlists set up on my channel.
Man, all these adverts that has to do with food makes me hungry. Another scrumptious video Steve 👍🏽😎👍🏽🍽️🍻

Or going to the cinema. The ads at the beginning always helped if you were running a bit late.

Not even for a Dairylea slice! I'd forgotten all about that advert, a very common phrase at school at the time.

@@RetroSteveUK your welcome xx
Love all these posts, but have to be honest, hadn't caught a lot of the food ads in their day....love them anyway...thankyou..CC
I remember "moulinex makes things simple...and that includes the price".
Unfortunately Colmans is no longer making mustard in Norfolk. 😕

Where is today's vintage advert compilation?
Whoops! I accidentally scheduled it for 5pm instead of 3pm. I've just updated that and it'll be dropping at 4pm now. Thank you for the heads-up. 👍
When will there be another vintage music advert compilation?
Might be a little while. I collect the ads in categorised folders and put out a compilation when there are enough of a certain type.
@@RetroSteveUKThank you for telling me as I like the vintage music advert compilations a lot.
👍👍

Bring back St. Ivel Gold is all I'm saying!
I loved Golden Churn, but only because of that awesome churn-shaped pot it used to come in.
@@RetroSteveUK God yes! i remember that. Didn't Willie Rushden do the voiceover for the ad?
@@davidbowie2046 I don't recall, but then I've only seen one ad for it recently, on one of the compilations.
stick to butter, far healthier
@@sarahlouise7163 That's true, especially since they found out that margarine is almost like plastic.
