Heinken refreshes the parts other beers can't reach

Allinson Bread - better with nowt taken out

Go to work on an egg

You're never alone with a Strand
('The Lonely Man' theme was a chart hit for Cliff Adams - who also composed the Smash jingle)

Opal Fruits - made to make your mouth water
(I notice it's replacement, Starburst, hasn't had an equally catchy tune to go with it)

And all because the lady loves Milk Tray

Comet - you know where to come

Happiness is a cigar called Hamlet

Fit the best - Everest (double-glazing windows ad with Ted Moult)

Andrex (Toilet Paper) - Soft, strong and very, very long
(With the voice of Keith Barron as I remember)

You won't believe how quickly all of those came to mind!

What was that one with Barbara Windsor eating a cream cake?

And didn't actor Patrick Allen have a catchphrase for that advert for Barratt homes?

Naughty, but nice - a slogan coined by Salman Rushdie when he was an advertising copy writer before becoming a novelist

Nice One Cyril

It's frothy man

Chocolates ? No, Maltesers

1001 cleans a big big carpet for less than half a crown

There's a terrific draught in here

He was the account director, the leader of the team that created the slogan. But he says he didn't create it himself.

Similarly, Fay Weldon was the manager of the team that created the slogan "Go to work on an egg" - but she didn't create it herself

I suppose we should mention "Do the Shake And Vac and put the freshness back".

That Beyonce is irritating me even more than the Perry Como advert with her LOUD version of 'Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend'. I'd like to see her forced into singing all the above slogans - just to take her down a peg or two.

Watneys Brown Drink It Down (Eric and Ernie)
Roses Grow On You - Ooh! (Norman Vaughn)

They asked me how I knew
It was Esso Blue
I of course replied
With lower grades one buys
Smoke gets in your eyes

"Aha Mr Aubergine ... that's where you're wrong!"

"Milky Way - The sweet you can eat between meals without ruining your appetite."

Cobblers - Ask my mum.

"John Collier - John Collier - The window to watch".

"Coates comes down from Somerset, where the cider apples grow!"

Ah Yes, the Soviet Union. All them wheatfields and ballet in the evenings

Beer at home means Davenports!
That’s the beer!
Lots of cheer!
The finest malt with hops and yeast,
Turns a snack into a feast.
Straight from breweries to your home,
Why collect?
We’ll deliver!
Soon you’ll know why folks all say:
“Beer at home means DAVENPORTS “!



cheers ollie

"Bullseye !!"
