    I always got a laugh out of the old fire safety adverts that used to be on tv in the early 90s. Some blond smoking a fag, leaves it half lit and goes to bed.... cue ominous wah wah guitar and her house going up in ball of flames...

    Well try as I might I couldn't describe it as "that video with the two little asian girls fighting over a cherry" without making it look dirty :(

    The Mentos ads are the best.

    I remember back in the early 90's an advert for some sheep de-wormer or something along those lines. The music was "bha-bha-bha-ba-ba" all the way thru and then some of the sheep jump up in the air. (I'm not mad, does anyone remember that gem?)

    I remember an ad for cough sweets years ago. It was hilarious. It had this really posh guy speaking about his family in such a posh british accent!


    It ended with him saying:

    "If i had my way i'd give them all a dam good thrashing!"

    Then he gets torpedoed by a packet of cough sweets! :D

    "Kate, its me, the guy from the bar! HELLO?!" I think it was for Digifone (now O2?) was funny maybe the first time but became overused by just about everyone I know. :mad:

    I've just watched the other one and it's the funniest thing I've seen in ages, but it probably would upset some people, especially cat lovers.

    The cat add was the best, I think all these Ka adds were banned for TV but turned up as viral adds, f,ing hilarious.

    Does anyone have a link to the early 'Carling black lable light hearted lager, so full of flavour, Carling' ads of the 80's I think.
    The ones where the adds carried through into the next add with a posse of cowboys chasing some outlaw through a supermarket? This will make sense to those that saw it. Hilarious stuff.

    Its a national scandal that nobody remembers this ad. It was barely ever shown, I assumed some prick banned it

    The Pot Noodle Horn

    Gas one as well, the Coors truck travelling through the Colorado rockies on its determined journey to get beer to the world and according to the narrator, "absoloutely nothing will stop it."

    *cut to truck grinding to a halt upon seeing 3 birds and a bus from "College Girls Beach Volleyball Tour 06" on the roadside*

    "Well, almost nothing...." :D

    Coach: "Where are you?"
    Player: "Im at the Superbowl"
    C: "Who am I?"
    P: "You're coach"
    C: And who are you
    P: "I am Batman".... Brilliant - saw it on youtube at weekend, quality
