Who would have thought it's hard to describe when or what u were doing in the 80s thinking these ads sux nope they beat today the last 10,20 even 30years since the 80s left so many emotions now even these ads are so catchy like theme tunes to everything that was around just before and after with entertainment Music,Cartoons and TV Shows of all things
I hate watching Ads now on our so call pay tv with way too many Channels that being Sky watching Wrestling just constant Ads all the way if it's 3hours it be only 2 lucky just record and fast forward oh the days like a VCR would do for us in the 80s.I watch Basketball timeout Ads spans over 2 and a half hours for 48mins Time Stops amazing how u can lose 2mins easy where it goes
I lived in NZ this July 87. Only one I half heartedly remember was the Crunchie one. Ads like Chesdale cheese were more memorable, and the Toyota (Bugger) ads were by far the best
Murray Grindlay wrote the Crunchie song. He was also responsible for the "Travellin' On" song with SRV. His other claim to fame was the classic "Shoop Shoop Diddy Wop Cumma Cumma Wang Dang".
I always remember the pixie caramel adds where the guy in prison would eat the bar so long and the guards would fall asleep . Then they would say the longer lasting chew . Good memories :)
Yes any last requests a Pixie Caramel should be here he makes the guards fall asleep by chewing gets out.Moro Creme Egg memories when Chocolate rocked never be beaten forever this decade it's on another dimension world the list is endless to go on how classy the 80s are
Georgie Pie when we dine in was cool likewise Pizza Hut had it we went many times.Give Em A Taste Of Kiwi and Heatwave were hits on the NZ Charts i have the Charts crazy what a Song can do at that exact time era

When Chocolate was chocolate a million times better than it's become now like most food aswell packaging quite pricy.Remember Creme Eggs taste so good the yolk was flowing it was my favorite part of the year Easter as a kid in New Zealand
So much more creative and soulful than any of the ads on Kiwi T.V. (RUclips) today which look and feel like bottom-of-the barrel, cheap, race-to-the-bottom garbage!
Could do a whole video of the Toyota HiLux ads with Crumpie & Scottie. Including the one that got quickly banned featuring Scottie driving in the city.
4:10 Those early to mid 80s Corollas were one of the best small cars Toyota made. The suspension was tuned for the New Zealand market by race car driver Chris Amon and subsequently adopted for their global market, I believe. Beautiful handling fun car to drive.
I don't remember most of these, but the first and last ads (Creme egg and Crunchie) are bonafide classics. They also played for years because they were so iconic, so I saw them both literally over 100 times. Another example is the Pixie Caramel ad where the guy in front of a firing squad is asked "any last requests?", but that may be Australian. They were all made in the very early eighties, but were still shown well into the 1990s.
New Pink Lotion Swirl was a great ad - Keans for Jeans that ended with a white outline bulldog face on black the Norge & HMV fridge ads set on an island with a castaway ??? - the Chesdale Cheese broz - Fruju - Trumpet on a bus with a kid calling out a bully - Spongy Puds ad 'crybabying" - the Tips tea bag ads with the monkeys - Even the cigarette ads promoting their poison were memorable New Car ads were always expansive
So funny that they used to advertise Moro bars like they are a health food bar lol . Chocolate , fudge , and caramel , and we all believed it was so good for us lol
It's a stretch to claim it's being advertised as a health bar, unlike the plethora of bars *now* that present themselves as healthy, which are still very high energy intake and ultimately contain large amounts of sugar & fat. There's only a single word that could be taken to mean that - 'goodness', which I'd take to be in relation to natural ingredients perceived as higher quality and more enjoyable. Nobody then considered them as 'healthy'(though like any bar they're not going to do any harm eaten occasionally), but naturally they do supply energy and eating them around the time of playing rugby as shown is appropriate.
I knew as a kid that they weren’t good for you in excess. But I also knew that they would give you a big boost of energy. Of course that only really applies to kids LOL…
@@ACDZ123 It was produced by Colenso NZ in 1985. Cast and crew were local too. Music written by Murray Grindlay, a NZ singer songwriter who wrote music for many NZ ads in the 80s and 90s including NZ film and TV productions.
Back when kiwi ads were kiwi people! Now days it's show's your average kiwi family being a Indian husband with a absolutely gorgeous kiwi woman! Whats up with that?
It must be 1987. Because of the “heatwave” ad, which was actually released as a single “40 in the shade”. And also because of the Atari ST advert with a teenaged Simon Barnett.
Wow Georgie pie. Went there a lot with the munchies when me and the fellas went on drives up mt Eden mountain ect for a smoke sesh. 1 dollar for a pie, got 3 or 4 each.
First time in ages I didn't have to skip the ads.
Milky bar kid,👍fave💯🤜🤛

Wow... amazing how much they instantly come back to you after not seeing them for literally decades
It's been 20 some odd years since I've seen that crunchie add but I sung it almost word for word. Memories.
So happy to see all these ads from my childhood🥺🥺😅😅sooo much memories brought tears to my eyes seeing this video...😢❤
I literally knew all these ads word for word. Wow.

Great to see Margaret Urlich in the L&P ad. RIP
Lots of wonderful Kiwi talent in that ad - Margaret Urlich, Erana Clarke, Betty-Anne & Ryan Monga, Annie Crummer...
Without a doubt the Crunchie Train robbery is the best ad ever produced in NZ!
Murray Grindlay wrote the Crunchie song. He was also responsible for the "Travellin' On" song with SRV. His other claim to fame was the classic "Shoop Shoop Diddy Wop Cumma Cumma Wang Dang".
That ad lasted for years.
My uncle is in that
Wow that Crunchie bar ad, that brings back memories a damn good ad for an ad so catchy.
first time not sick of seeing ads🤣

I feel like that was an Australian advert, hence it wasn't included.
Back wen ads were so good u were excited to see wich ones were gonna come on.😊 also i loved Georgie pie. $1 pies. Epic.
Crunchie ad was my favorite growing up in Nz.

To be blessed and part of the greatest decade of all time never to forget miss it so much oh hail the 80s
Watching these ads is like reminiscing back in the days of my youth when i was in my teen years
Miss these dsys

250g block of chocolate and far less cynical.
They def showed that Creme Egg advert after the 80s, I remember it clearly even though I was only a baby in the late 80's.
It ran for a long time.
that went for years - they recycled it in the 90s and early 2000s and it disappeared from our screens.
I remember first seeing it about 1985.
Not possible...it was made at my old school in year's either 1987 or 88...I remember the filming 😊@@clannard1
My childhood memory!! *Georgie Pie.*
So much more creative and soulful than any of the ads on Kiwi T.V. (RUclips) today which look and feel like bottom-of-the barrel, cheap, race-to-the-bottom garbage!
Loved the Europa ads they were GREAT!! ,miss the 80s

I don't remember the Europa commercial being so long, but the quality is still really good. And i never knew that was Stevie Ray
It sounds odd to say but the quality of ads were better in the 80's, not dumbing them down and treating the audience like children.
I remember that NZI ad...
The Crunchie bar ad was a classic. Brings back memories..😪😪
4:10 Those early to mid 80s Corollas were one of the best small cars Toyota made. The suspension was tuned for the New Zealand market by race car driver Chris Amon and subsequently adopted for their global market, I believe. Beautiful handling fun car to drive.
That was the Corona by Amon, not the Corolla.
The talent in that LnP ad is amazing - our kiwi talent right there
Awesome 👍 these were the best 😄🇳🇿
Damn, we had some slick big-budget ads back in the day..that Europa one, the L&P one...one-minute (and longer!) timeslots. Great compilation. 👍
Yeah it’s crazy how much NZ television has degraded in the last decade.
That Europa one must have cost a fortune! Maybe that’s why they went bust.
@@danieleyre8913it just changed hands
SRV and Midge Marsden and the Mudsharks, traveling on
A real classic. Long as ad too.
Europa fuel
These bring back memories I especially liked that Corolla ad
People forget that Murray was basically the voice of NZ commercials for 25 years +
Half of these were Australian adds ..Cadbury egg, sprite, topex
'Dont get caught with shit on your face'
❤ CADBURY CRUNCHY IS A CLASSICK N.Z LEGENDARY ADD ❤
Awesome! So many great memories.
I am struck by how much artistry went into some of these ads; you can sense a lot of frustrated filmmakers making ends meet by shooting ads!
RIP Georgie Pie :(
Miss it.
Been a while since I saw the Crunchie ad. I think last time it was on TV was 2010 or something.
The old computer ad .far owt memory s ,I want go back in time.
GENERATION X!
🥲💖🙏🏾☝🏾
I have a Toyota Corolla today,,,wow 1990 model
😊BRING BACK GEORGIE PIES👍👌
i miss the $1, $2, $3 and $4 value meals
Oh m8! How did you not have Barry crump and his hilux ads 😢
I like old times
Good afternoon sir Frank
Good night brother
Good old days
Advertisers must miss the days when they had a massive captive audience thorugh TV.
mid to late 1987 - i remember that l&p ad was from that year - the jingle actually became a hit song.
Rip Margaret Urlich
Liked the orginal Spieghts ad, " with the box seat at eden park" not sure when it came out but it was a goody.
Bring back the l&p ad
First ad was filmed in a classroom at Saint Patricks College, Silverstream.
Stevie ray Vaughan, legend.
Saved the best till last. Where’s the Milky Bar kid?
My God I was thinking exactly same thing!
What does it say about me that the only two ads I recognize are for Cadbury chocolate 😅

Give em a taste of kiwi 🥝👍🎬👏👏
"Would you mind if I washed down this Kahuna Burger with some of your tasty beverage? Sprite! THAT HIT THE SPOT"
Where is the Milky Bar Kid ... lol
My little bro once auditioned for the Milky Bar Kid.
Good old adds in the good old days when NZ Cadbury made the best NZ chocolate, boy has things gone downhill since.
Love the crunchie one
have been trying to find old big ben pie
Feeling like only yesterday 😪
You must be old like me.

There were ads between the ads
Send me back.
Heatwave..Erana Clark awesome❤
You missed the Pixie Caramel one lol
The Cadbury Crunchie Great Train Robbery ad is certainly well made and memorable, but not an 80s ad; it was made in 1975.
SRV ❤ R I P
Vaguely remember the europa ad but certainly wasn't that long
It probably only ran at that length for a handful of times. Certainly seems longer than anything we see today though.

The Cadbury creme egg add sounds like a split enz song.
Nope.

Lemon & Paeroa!
I remember,❤️🤜🤛💯proud as fuck

Back when kiwi ads were kiwi people! Now days it's show's your average kiwi family being a Indian husband with a absolutely gorgeous kiwi woman! Whats up with that?
Kiwis are multicultural now - the white supremacist days are over, gratefully - we now have an awesome diversity - we're all people after all
Boomers opened the floodgates. Hopefully our young people can learn how to ask "Can I rent it please?" in Mandarin
Wait till it's African on Eskimo. Then you'll know the Jews have won.
Wait till it's African on Eskimo. Then you'll know the Jews have won.
The 2nd ad was Kiwis dressed up as Egyptians...
With all these ads for chocolate and fuzzy no wonder people growing up in the 80s have bad teeth now😅
But "Mrs Marsh" came to the rescue...because "it really does get in"...

Does anyone know where to find
"Pink bike shop " TV commercial in late 80s?
"Pink Bike Shop"? I'm not familiar with that one, but maybe I'd recognize it if I see it. Was it a regional ad maybe?
@@newzealandstories5621 it might have been regional actually, Invercargill Southland
it was known as a druggies shop as well
@@jamesmccann1449 Mike Hughes was the owner
Mike Hughes? That pink bike shop? Yeah it was only for us Southlanders.
I’m guessing circa 1989
It must be 1987. Because of the “heatwave” ad, which was actually released as a single “40 in the shade”. And also because of the Atari ST advert with a teenaged Simon Barnett.
I wonder if that generation of young add watcher got a bit plump in there middle ages because of these adds ( just look down ) lol

Don't make adds like that anymore they were dam entertaining not like the soft as crap they pump out today...
