      I remember when my dad was 60 and he said “race you to the bus stop” I was 13 but he beat me to it easily. I miss him when a war movie or cowboy movie was on TV and when he was going to the toilet, he’d say “tell them to keep their heads down, I’m going to get my gun”.

    As tame as it looks now, I remember the disappearance of Carol Hawkins' tennis outfit really getting my attention as an impressionable teen! There's a whiff of Benny Hill about that whole Dunlop advert, and we will not see its like again.
    What surprises me watching that ad now is how well done it is technically. I tried to spot the edits where they must have removed each of the products, and in most cases they were barely perceptible. They even managed to get the dog to be (almost) perfectly still between shots! In those pre-CGI days, a lot of work must have gone into such a well-made ad.

All those blokes in pyjamas coming up to me saying their names were Cane, Sugar Cane, but I could call them sweety. That's what comes of a better life promised by advertising. Used Lifebuoy carbolic soap impregnated with essence of pickled onions after that and have never regretted my choice to this day.

I sat down the other day and tried to remember what the most annoying adverts were actually for, and I realised that I did indeed remember the ads but had no idea what they were advertising. A perfect example is the "Captain Sensible" adverts.

    The blonde in the bath went on to be Trillian in the TV version of "Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy". Incidentally, only two of those adverts were either originally American, or else American adverts over-dubbed with British accents to disguise their origin? (Kelly le Brock would not talk with that accent - she was over-dubbed). what a difference from today!
