The most annoying thing about the "piracy is a crime" adverts is when you were forced to watch them before every DVD, yet if you bought a pirated DVD you didn't have to sit through it at all. There's a tick in the pirate DVD plus point box for me.
I thought the version he watched _was_ the original version, and that JT himself was the one that changed the music for _this_ video to avoid copyright.
I’ve seen American adverts which are literally on after every 5 minutes in a programme. They are terrible and so annoying. At the end of a 2 week holiday you actually know the order they are going to be on, what it’s selling and the jingle, and it sticks in our head for weeks on return to UK!!
The late great Leslie Phillips' catchphrases were 'Ding Dong' and 'Hello'. He voiced the talking hat in Harry Potter but his acting career spanned decades mainly in comedy films.
People in the UK HATE hard sell, so advertisers know we will actually watch a good advert, rather than nipping out to make a cuppa while the ads are on 🤣
So true, even online, a good advert will at least make me watch it, as opposed to ignoring or fast forwarding past it, and so many adverts now that make you just think wtf are they trying to get me to buy.
@@riverraven7359 they have anywhere from two adverts too four minutes of ads per ad break. I've seen some videos with a advert at every 10 minutes. The thing that makes me laugh is youtubers are still complaining about ad revenue, how much is youtube pocketing from these adverts
The guy in the old sports car in the Nanna Shreddies Advert is Leslie Phillips who mostly played a Lathario and his catchphrase was "Ding Dong" when seeing a pretty girl. He was in many films and TV shows and was a national treasure sadly passed away in 2022.
Fun fact the Tango adverts had to be stopped and their advertisments changed because they believed it was inciting violence after kids of playgrounds used to double-slap their friends and shout TANGO.
The ads were changed because kids didn't just slap the victims cheeks as in the ad, but the sides of the head, and several kids were hospitalised with perforated eardrums!
I used to HATE that Go Compare advert. It was constant, on the TV and radio. Then if you'd actually use their website they had the audacity to ask "How did you hear about us?" 😡😂
EVERYONE hated the Go Compare advert! It was the most loathed ad on TV. They made a joke of it after a couple of years of tedious ads, then it disappeared thank goodness now he’s back but he doesn’t sing which we don’t mind so much. It wasn’t the man’s singing it was the song.
The older gentleman who said 'Ding Dong' was Leslie Phillips, a British film star in the 1950s and 60s. It was one of his film catch phrases. He died in 2022, aged 98
What is so special about the cadburys gorilla ad is, whilst yes it has nothing to do with chocolate, EVERYBODY remembers the ad and remembers its cadburys. It ironically works better than any ad that actually showed its product
The gorilla for Cadburys, they actually used the proper song in the beginning, but then they had to change it because of copyright. As for the crusha, ever since they took out the artificial flavours and the E numbers it doesn’t taste the same anymore. Jaffa cakes used to come in a tube kind of like Pringles and then they changed it to just coming in a plastic wrapping in a box. All of the Specsavers adverts are absolutely hilarious. Awesome video man.
@@HolyFreakinDragonSlayer No. This time it was the video that JT was watching that had the music edited away from the original. He even said it himself, when commenting about how good he thought the remix was.
Barry Scott from Cillit bang is purposely loud to mimic US car dealer ads! 'Ding-dong' was the catch phrase of the late Lesley Phillips after he played Dr Bell in a Carry-on film. He was also the talking hat in Harry Potter.
Oooooo no. That last advert was for Smiler at Alton towers….. where there was a very serious accident where two cars crashed and someone had to have her legs amputated 😢 I still love and miss the old old Milky Way advert with the two cars having a race 🚗🚙🍫
@@Amy-tb3rd"All red wants to do is stuff his face He eats everything he sees, from rocks to prickly trees" "But good ol' blue he took the milky way" Loved that advert too ❤
The go compare ad the opera singer character name Gio Compario is actually a real opera singer and that's him singing too, he's from Wales his real name is Wynne Evans & he's from a part of Wales called Carmarthen. He was paid £450.000 for a two year contract doing that ad. Specsavers is where some go to get their eyes tested and for new glasses, or as you call them an eye doctor or as we call them an Optician.
The go compare man’s brother was my drama teacher at my performing arts school (stagecoach) for about a year when I was 7/8. My whole class was very impressed and excited about this for some reason 😂 probably bc we were all Welsh/it was in Wales and he was one of the few famous Welsh people we all knew at that age. This was also before everyone really started getting annoyed at the adverts I think.
3:33 See JT, that's how we all felt at the time knowing what was (or wasn't) going to happen. You've managed to experience what we felt way back then, for the first time rewatching as it randomly came on the TV.
That overture on the Smiler is what Alton Towers would use in general to simulate the adrenaline experience in their adverts as to why they should visit. Alton Towers is the UK's Six Flags just not as big.
The Go Compare adverts are probably the most hated British ads. It was fine to start with but they were so frequent it soon became irritating. I enjoy opera but every time it came on I had to mute to save my sanity.
19:37 the smiler one didn’t age well. The smiler ride at Alton towers had a major crash that caused riders to need leg amputations etc. You couldn’t pay me to go on it!
Waaaait. Is this the first time JT has witnessed Gio Compare? Oh damm. Son, you’ve got a whole new world to discover. For like 10 years, go compare was EVERYWHERE
My mate’s dad looks the double of the singer minus the moustache. For years I’ve always sang it in front of his dad without him realising what I mean when I do and sing it at my mate!
The chap in the Shreddies advert who goes "Ding Dong" is Leslie Philips a British Actor, who's career includes a lot of inuendo's, so the Ding Dong suits his previous roles. Edit: I remember getting AOL startup discs through the mail, I viewed them as free mug mats. Edit 2: The Go Compare adverts escelated to Hitmen trying to take out the Opera Singer, to him eventually resufarcing again in the adverts.
The Original Chewits ad the godzilla ate people too, back before everything was banned. Search for 'milk tray man' or 'smash martians' for a good advert series that is proper nostalgia for us older viewers.
My son, a constant joker, never lets the family forget 'Mr. Shifter.....' when I'm bringing the tea and biscuits....now that is real long time nostalgia¬
The tango commercial started a craze in the schools where children slapped someone in th face , and shout you've been tangoed, They had to change it to a kiss , and rhe slapping got band in school 😂😂😂😂😂. Can you imagine a ton of kid slapping themselves in the face " you been tango" and running off 😂😂😂
Did anyone else think of that episode of The IT Crowd with the piracy ad? “You wouldn’t shoot a policeman, and then steal his helmet!” “You wouldn’t go to the toilet in his helmet!” “And then send it to the policeman’s grieving widow, and then steal it again!”
Seeing toy ads that I’ve never seen because I was deep into adulthood when they were first broadcast on a compilation of ads that people are nostalgic for sure does make me feel old!
it says downloading pirated content is stealing HOWEVER what they fail to take into account is its actually not illegal at all - Downloading can be a criminal offence IF the downloader makes copies or shares the files for the purpose of selling and making a commercial gain so within the UK we can stream and pirate as much as we want as long as we dont make money
The thing is and the end of the second Specsavers advert the elderly man said “What sort of cheese was that” and the thing is that with how insanely funny i can imagine someone actually thinking that that could happen and that just makes me crack up laughing
The Tango advert was filmed on Fauconberg Rd in Chiswick, West London. The shop on the corner was an Off Licence at the time and was turned into a greengrocers for the shoot. I only know this because my late grandparents lived over the road.
That ad at the end is for a ride at Alton towers. The ride opened in 2013. This ad came out in 2014 and then in 2015, there was quite a serious incident that occurred on the ride that caused injuries to several riders, 2 of whom ended up needing amputations. I’ve still never been on the rollercoasters, not because of the accident or anything, but because it’s only been open once in all the times I’ve gone and the one time it was open, I had a pounding headache and didn’t want to make it worse.
Everyone used to actually go round school running up to randoms "tangoing" them!! Soooo many folks got in sooo much trouble!! It hurts but funny as hell watching their reactions!! X
The Cadburys catchphrase was "a glass and half of joy in every bar" and they advertise joyful things lol fun facts the go compare guy is still doing the adverts, as both the character and himself, he is a real opera singer who has sang with some of the most famous names in opera.
You can tell its Cadbury's because of the purple colour in the background. Phil Collins, the original singer of "Something in the air" was also a drummer. The eyebrows ad is also instantly identifiable as Cadbury's by the purple dress the girl is wearing. The colour is copyrighted ad Cadbury's purple.
Adverts in Britain are often made by movie directors - Ridley Scott, and Hugh Hudson come to mind. That's why a lot of them are so beautifully made - and, as you say, often better than the TV shows they interrupt.
Interesting thing about the Cadbury ad: not long before, there had been a bit of a scandal, because there had been traces of salmonella in the chocolate. After getting their shit in order, they then decided they needed an ultimate ad campaign, one that would get the name of Cadbury in peoples' faces in a good way. The drumming gorilla was the result.
I've been watching you for a long time and I love to see you just getting better and better confident and love and respect to you and your Mrs and your pets
@11:34 "You wouldn't shoot a policeman and then steal his helmet. You wouldn't go to the toilet in his helmet and then send the helmet to the policeman's grieving widow"
The first one that came to mind for me was the Citroen C4 Ice Skating transformer (although I had to look up which car it was!). I can remember being at school with one of those tvs on wheels they used to use and our teacher was trying to talk to us prior to the programme starting but quickly realised the entire class had heads at 45° to look behind him. After a moment he admitted defeat and let us watch the ice skating car before continuing lol
ohhh you should watch a Thailand advert called sisters. its not in English but I think when you watch it you'll understand and it may even make you cry.
What makes the Smiler ad scarier is the fact that a little after this there was an accident on it that caused serious injuries to five people and two of them to have their legs amputated. That thing is cursed.
Waaaaaaaay short of being iconic. To get the best of UK adverts, you really need to go back to the 70's and 80's. The Yellow Pages "J R Hartley" one, "For Mash get Smash", Leonard Rossiter and Joan Collins (Campari), "The water in Majorca.....", Carling "Dambusters", R Whites Lemonade, Flake, Hamlet Cigars, the list is endless. Honourable mentions to more recent ones such as the Guinness one with the surfer and horses coming out of the sea, the Skoda cake one, and the Bravia one with the multi coloured one with the multi coloured balls getting chucked down Lombard Street.
Superb adverts. I’ve always loved the Smash aliens and they are literally a mile away from me in Bradford media museum but I’ve never been! Berries and cream opal fruits (starburst??? ) Never seen or heard of the advert or product. Must have been regional only. The Carling dam busters though is the best. I always laugh when I think of it and occasionally act it out in my head just to amuse myself!
The funniest thing about the "piracy is a crime" advert is that the music used in it was pirated from a music festival 😂😂😂
I loaded up the comments to say this too 😂😂😂
wait no way 🤣
The most annoying thing about the "piracy is a crime" adverts is when you were forced to watch them before every DVD, yet if you bought a pirated DVD you didn't have to sit through it at all. There's a tick in the pirate DVD plus point box for me.
Pirate bay was popular lol, I heard that it wasn't legal to download only if u burn them off its illegal
The IT Crowd did a really funny spin on this.
The first Cadbury commercial with the gorilla is so much better with the original music. The version you watched didn't do it justice!
I had to skip past it, just not the same without that song
They most likely changed the song just to avoid copyright strike because of the song
Absolutely, it has to be Phil Collins or nothing.
@@AlexrsGAME I get why the poster changed it, I’m just saying it’s not the same as have in the air tonight
I thought the version he watched _was_ the original version, and that JT himself was the one that changed the music for _this_ video to avoid copyright.
Original Cadbury gorilla has better impact than the remix version.
The 'remix' is not even in time with the Gorilla, total pants!
@@philiprowneyAgreed the remix is awful! doesn't have same impact as original at all
i was also going to say the same :)
First time I've ever seen that vid on YT without the original sound.
The shreddies advert features the late Leslie Phillips saying "ding dong" which was his catchphrase in my films
Cilit Bang is how we imagine American adverts.
It goes by the name of Easy Off Bam in America
It' no "Kitchen Gun" advert though
@@juliajoyce4535 and are the adverts shouty like this one?

The real Cadbury ad was brilliant. The Cadbury purple was on the wall behind and we all recognise that colour. 🇬🇧

You might have noticed all Cadburys Adverts have the Corporate Purple in them somewhere.
On the wall behind the Gorilla and the Girls Dress etc.
you need to react to British Christmas adverts there are some amazing ones over the years
yes this is a mustttt
The dolmio advert always did my nut in. 'now made with real ingredients', I mean, what the heck, what on earth was it made with before!
The "Go Compare" opera singer really is an opera singer.
You will like this, he is Welsh🏴
And the adverts are still going today.

I can remember being at school with one of those tvs on wheels they used to use and our teacher was trying to talk to us prior to the programme starting but quickly realised the entire class had heads at 45° to look behind him. After a moment he admitted defeat and let us watch the ice skating car before continuing lol
'Barry Scott. The only man who thought he needed to shout so you could hear him through the telly'
Love that they got Leslie Phillips in on the Shreddies advert there.
ohhh you should watch a Thailand advert called sisters. its not in English but I think when you watch it you'll understand and it may even make you cry.
Need some 80s British ad tvs. The Milk Tray ads, Shake n Vac, Treeo
you should do a video on specsavers ads, they're fairly epic and memorable! 🤣
The irony of the anti piracy ad is that the company behind it stole the music that is used in the ad and got sued by the creator of the track.
What makes the Smiler ad scarier is the fact that a little after this there was an accident on it that caused serious injuries to five people and two of them to have their legs amputated. That thing is cursed.
The Cravendale ad Cats with Thumbs should have been on this, one of my all-time favourite adverts.
I sure hope the OXO ads with Linda Bellingham are in this video or you dropped the ball, JT! Love your vids ❤ English bird approved.
Cadbury is pronounced more like cad-bree, rather than cad-berry, still tastes the same though 😂 remember all these ads
Cad-berry and that's final, cad-brie is just too close to the cheese
I say cad-bu-ree. I'm Scottish.
Um, I've ALWAYS pronounced it as Cad-berry.
Not sure what lah-di-dah part of the UK you're from!
Loved the Cadbury gorilla. Will say our Irn Bru adverts are on a whole new level instead of Tango though lol.
Waaaaaaaay short of being iconic. To get the best of UK adverts, you really need to go back to the 70's and 80's. The Yellow Pages "J R Hartley" one, "For Mash get Smash", Leonard Rossiter and Joan Collins (Campari), "The water in Majorca.....", Carling "Dambusters", R Whites Lemonade, Flake, Hamlet Cigars, the list is endless. Honourable mentions to more recent ones such as the Guinness one with the surfer and horses coming out of the sea, the Skoda cake one, and the Bravia one with the multi coloured one with the multi coloured balls getting chucked down Lombard Street.
the Crunchie Rollercoaster and Caramel bunny were awesome too
And any number of Cadbury flake, Milk Tray, hamlet cigars, hai karate aftershave, and Cointreau ads. And that's just the serial ads, not the one offs!
Superb adverts. I’ve always loved the Smash aliens and they are literally a mile away from me in Bradford media museum but I’ve never been!
Berries and cream opal fruits (starburst??? ) Never seen or heard of the advert or product. Must have been regional only.
The Carling dam busters though is the best. I always laugh when I think of it and occasionally act it out in my head just to amuse myself!
@@BronyumHexofloride who knew that the silky voice of the Cadbury bunny was potty mouthed Miriam Margolyes??!!
@BronyumHexofloride I had a small girl crush on the caramel bunny, then I found out Miriam voiced her and I was in love
