Talking Adverts - the ones we remember

Adverts that make you smile or a catch phase you remember years later, InLove and myself thought it may be good to start a thread - so here goes

Cadbury's Smash, Dairy Milk Gorilla Advert (the one where the gorilla plays the drums) .......... Did you catch these though?


How many people remember this one? I was at infant / junior school and our head master was called Mr Humpreys.....

I can't put any videos up at the moment but does anyone remember the advert for Honda with the song:

Hate something, change somthin.....Hate somethin, change somethin make somethin beterrrrr (followed by whistling??)

I've got that tune stuck in my head now. I'll be singing it all day

I like the new Honda advert too with the giant jigsaw car

Found it, found it - I think I'm also at work so I have to search without sound

Unfortunetly I can't see any videos because I'm at work. I'll have to let you know later, although I'm sure that someone with sound will let us know if it's the right one.

I'm desperate to get online at home

Did you know that the F1 Guru Murray Walker came up with the slogan "a mars a day helps you work rest and play"?

I really like the spoof trunk monkey adverts

I hadn't seen the "trunk monkey" before - Loved the first date one
I wonder if there in Halfords yet? (not the couple !)

The Charlie and me advert reminded me of another public saferty advert - the green cross code man - They not only had the original green cross code man but also did adverts with Alvin Stardust, Kevin Keegan, Les Grey of MUD and Joe Bugner. The hair, the cars ....

I'd forgotten all about the Kevin Keegan advert!

I tried with no luck to find the Leonard Rossiter and Joan Collins Martini adverts, they where very funny

I did find this more recent energy drink advert with Vinny Jones. Sadly it was dropped due to complaints of cruelty (its an advert its not real )
