More Hamlet Cigars Adverts

[@Nexus-ub4hs]

Love these.
When one of my elderly relatives died, not British, we went to her funeral ...it was a beautiful white church, white coffin with warm sunlight through stained glass laying on the coffin. It was very serene. The church she belonged to had chosen the music. As I was remembering this wonderful lady and the special scene...this fricking music played lmao. I looked straight at my father mortified, half expecting the coffin to spring open.
I was young lol. Didn’t know the composer.

[@rubix4195]

If I was there, I would be expecting a little hatch to open in the coffin and a trail of smoke will come out and the voice over announcing as the trail finished. T_T

[@Kevin-yi8fd]

I am a classical music devotee but when even now i hear Bach air on a g string i still think of these funny adverts

[@mrbillhicks]

The mild cigar found under benches and hedges..

[@davidrule385]

I am a non smoker and these are very beauifully funny adverts

[@rubix4195]

Ditto - these adverts are the only kind I would watch right through. Not the dross of life assurance/insurance/funeral plans/equity release on TV nowadays.

[@flashcracker1]

These days I only smoke after meals and I am down to 40 meals a day

[@rachelcaullay172]

I forgotten how funny the adverts were. I really did Lol on all of them.

[@yell50]

Yes the adverts were really funny back then, they were designed to make you smile. Today in 2017 all we seem to get are averts telling us to give money while we watch a children who are going hungry or life insurance to remind us all about our impending death all these adverts were designed to make the viewer depressed or guilty.

[@tnaoro]

Yes

[@yell50]

@0972q8 Yes I know this ..

[@rubix4195]

@@yell50 It's 2021 and it's still the freaking same >< I can't watch an advert break with funeral plans/life assurance or insurance or charities asking for a direct debit.

[@Slimboyfat1979]

I have this really strong urge to go out and buy some cigars...

[@envirocam1650]

And so you should, advertising works yeah.

[@arfanmedni7294]

Make it a Hamlets, it's a mild cigar!

[@paulfrost8895]

Remember a few parodies on the Kenny Everette show back in the 80s ' one featured a young bagpiper woman when her bagpipe burst as she was playing ' and all the spectators cleared ' before someone dropped a hamlet cigar in the money box ' after which she lights up and smokes to the music ' a few also featured Kenny lighting up during various sketches ' doubt if that would be shown today in our pc times.

[@fraumahler5934]

These are masterpieces of art.

[@mikesmith8187]

Yep. The crap I’ve had to go through in life, I could write hundreds more of these.

[@stingray4real]

The one on 7:39 a product placement for Heineken.

[@tommillard4193]

We all know a good cigar goes with a good beer down the pub

[@dawnfinch9935]

thanks for sharing these memories

[@RevStickleback]

I think the sculptor/Venus de Milo one is the cleverest of the bunch.

[@michaelturner4457]

Paul Darrow in the "Columbus" ad.

[@rumeunner3245]

The Elizabeth advert would have benefitted from a renaissance sound in the theme.

[@NiceYokai]

12:07 what a second he had a lighter on him for his cigar, WHY COULDN’T HE LIGHT THE TORCH BACK UP?!?!?!?!

[@simonwtkns1]

Because it’s supposed to be the same flame carried from mount Olympus.

[@AndrewLale]

@@simonwtkns1 Also, it then wouldn't be funny.

[@fazyt1508]

he isnt even shown with a lighter

[@badmattam]

Hysterical!...thanks for sharing.

[@SkinnyEMedia]

My favourite tobacco brand in part to these hilarious, quaint adverts. Happiness is a cigar, only for this one.

[@leytonexile]

Love the two in the gents at 15:51!

[@roykassinger6903]

Nice to see what was being parodied in "Yellow Submarine" when the sub gave the boxing monster a cigar.

[@tnaoro]

I like the green line one!

[@playablou8430]

le coup de la Ferrari excellent je m'y attendais pas

[@MrSean64]

9:36 RUclips ads in a nutshell

[@jrbs]

Can anyone confirm if there was in fact a Hamlet Ad featuring a man who, being annoyed by the church bells, removed the clappers?

[@t.j.johnsonthewriter]

What’s the piece they play at the end. I always hear it but always forget it

[@lordelpus2099]

Hahahaha! Thank you for uploading!

[@stephaniespragg5586]

What years did the urinal and parking barrier Hamlet adverts date back to

[@owenz1945]

I reckon the early 2000s seeing as it was banned in the early 00s

[@tommillard4193]

The reg on that mercedes was 2001

[@neilwade7663]

Happy days!!!

[@annaszabo1520]

realy good and true. cigarette doesn't help, but u do not care anymore XD

[@envirocam1650]

40 a day man after these adverts.

[@AndrewLale]

Good man. Keep it up.

[@binagarten4667]

What a time, place, Alas lost to PC adgenda.

[@Ringolero]

These are and always have been a *weed* metaphor. 😁🚬

[@AndrewLale]

No, that's just you.

[@fazyt1508]

maybe man, hamlets make for great blunts

[@binagarten4667]

They should do one with a Indian male who is a doctor, gets riddiculled for his skin his food, him doing yoga and then white people waiting to see a doctor, making it thier national dish, doing yoga and him sitting at the departure lounge surrounded by white males, saying Nameste, and eying up the Indian eye candy, eating curry, spreading suntan lotion on and a buch of Somalians coming into England and reading a paper about Muslim Gromming gangs, as he is escorted to onto the Airport and stopping to smoke a cigar, a mild cigar!

[@haileyshannon7548]

Actually in Columbus’ time, everybody ALREADY knew the world was round!

[@mikehoy4238]

Unlike now

[@staffsyeoman]

Isn't "Queen Elizabeth" around the 10:00 mark a very young Keeley Hawes??

[@willashton5222]

Looks like it

[@tnaoro]

Meh.

[@stephaniespragg5586]

That advert with Queen Elizabeth and Sir Walter Raleigh dates back to 1984 and Keeley Hawes is a 1976 baby so it wouldn’t be

[@jonosmith4919]

GOD BLESS YOU LOL THAT'S R GANG LOL

[@TheSantiagoMatamoros]

Isn’t that Joe Pesci in 4:44 ?

[@rubix4195]

I am pretty sure he's an Brit unless Joe Pesci happened to be in the UK to film an advert for Hamlet.

[@JeremyWilshere]

6:22 Right who copied who? Casanova here or Del Boy?

Both hilarious, of course.

[@misterblobbys]

I vape now

[@rubix4195]

Yeah you vape now but, when you run of liquid one day, some guy will offer you a Hamlet, light it up and the music will play and your face will be relaxed and the voiceover will play!

[@misterblobbys]

@@rubix4195 haha you are right, vape broke back to the smokes for me

[@conscienceaginBlackadder]

2 of them are about homosexual harrassment. Being trapped in a ghost train with a lecherous assaulter is funny for a man, where there would be a political outcry for showing it happen to a woman.

[@bobmountford9216]

I've seen ads that do just that?..but they're funny?

[@AndrewLale]

Yeah, I wish gays wouldn't harass people too.

[@carryclass6807]

love the gay one at 0919 hilarious (and im gay)
