i liked the one where the kid killed his mum cos he wasn't wearing a seatbelt, his face was a picture.
i liked those adverts set in jamaica, i can't remeber what it was for but it had something to do with taking things easy. there was one with a lazy bus driver, and one with mobile phones where the guy was in the sea trying to get a signal.
i also liked the peter kay ads for the lager, my fave was when he put his mum in a nursing home to make room for a snooker table.
cilit bang deserves a mention, such shockingly bad adverts, but whether it was planned like that i don't know, i mean every one know what cilit bang is now. 'bang and the dirt is gone'!!!
the zelda advert with the music from the conan film was ace when it came out.
i hate those WKD adds, they are just stupid, i have a wicked side, but it doesn't invole standing around looking gay with my mates all drinking the same thing.
the cigar adverts (castanela?) where the bloke tries and tries at something, gives up, and starts smoking to that music were always good.
i hate knock off nigel adverts.
or anything about starving africans living 20 miles from the nearest watering hole. focking move you thickos, your house is only made of mud anyway.
lynx adverts are dreadful. wear deoderant and you will pull. bollox!! i agree wearing deoderant helps pulling girls, but only cos you wont stink of sweat.

I thought it was Robocop at first, but I think it's just slightly different to that tune.
Great ad though. Now we know who Kylie ripped off for one of her music vids :lol:
Oh, no. Every time you turn up something monumental and terrible happens.
I don’t think I have the stomach for it.

Speaking of British TV ads, aside from the lager or tobacco ads (some of which were fantastic, as they used humour to sell their products) the three best adverts I remember are recentish, say a few years ago (although the way time flies, it might be a decade or more :o).
Can anyone find these adverts on youtube or wherever (I've tried, but with no success):
1. A man and a women are in a restaurant,sitting face to face at a table. He says "I have something to tell you", and she says "So have I", and she goes first. I may have got the words wrong, but the gist is right, and I'll hide the rest, as it spoils the punchline, but anyone who knows the advert will recognise it from this:
Spoiler:
She says "There's someone else. I'm leaving you", and he says "I've just won the lottery". It's the expression on the woman's face that's so funny.
2. I think it's an advert for de-odourant, mayeb Lynx. It's basically all of these women, one at a time, saying things that the ideal woman would say, like "Of course I'll lend you money for a lapdance", "You say she meant nothing to you? OK", and "My best friend is lonely, can she join us in a threesome?". If only life (or just women) was like that.
3. I've asked this before; some years back there was a TV advert (for a building society, or insurance, maybe, I'm not sure) showing funy clips of home videos. The best one was of a football match, an amatuer or Sunday league match, I think, where the goalie, after a goal is scored, picks up the ball and throws it down on the ground in disgust, and the ball bounces on the mud and goes stright back into the net! Does anyone have a link to that clip on the 'net?

It's a lynx ad, and I went to school with the girl on the ad who says "You like football too", she was a posh chick, right dirty as well. I never shagged her but I know at least 10 people that did, one of them was my best mate in school at the time. She had blonde hair when I knew her though.
I knew a guy who was on an Oxy 10 ad as well, funnily enough he wasn't spotty in real life (maybe cos' he used oxy 10 eh :D).
Erm, I have no idea why, but this just popped into my head... another one that takes me back:
EDIT: Erm... and now this one's just popped into my head:
I once tried to use that as an excuse for sitting in the school library during lunch (you weren't allowed to be in there unless you were doing some work or reading... I, on the other hand, just wanted to eat my MacDonald's in peace). "Yeah, I'm looking for Fly Fishing by JR Hartley...". The librarian wasn't impressed!!

there are loads of those clips, amature goalies are always doing it, just search utube for 'own goals'
i liked the budweiser ad, where the gf is wearing her ex's t shirt, and the current bf is asking why she doesn't wear his, she answers 'cos he has a bigger one, and it fits nicer'

I know the ad... but I can't seem to find it on YouTube!! :sad:
Found another golden oldie though:
EDIT: Ooooooh, and another (yes, I really am *that* bored):
No, you got it right - it's the Gameboy version of the tune.
Ah fuck. How sad am I? :lol:
Never played the Gameboy version but I used to play the speccy one quite often.

Just remembered this ad, never seen it on telly though:
It was the 2006 Coke ad for the Superbowl, it was when the Indiana Colts won. I only know this because my wifes uncle said I was a living good luck charm, because it was the first time I'd watched a Superbowl in the US. I said to him can I come over with a few beers and do the traditional thing since I never have, I said maybe Indiana will win and they did.
I'll be honest I only really remember that because I couldn't give 2 fucks about American football, and this ad was the highlight of my night :D

As for old ones, apart from the Ariston ones, there was that Shake and Vac ad.
And a foreign ad I like is this:

Whatch Out!!!
i.e. beer turns posh girl into a thick spacker :lol:
Also how big is the can, it looks like a 24oz to me.
I love this one. It looks like it could be fun :D
I want one!
