Anyone remember the Denny's rasher ads with this guy circa 1986/87 ish? In retrospect he came across like Kevin the teenagers older gurrier brother. There was a voice over rap type thing that went "and off while he dashes (?) and demolishes the rashers". At the end the words "Rashers was here" appear spraypainted on a wall.

Ha, I remember my older brother hated yer man in it. Whenever it used to come on he'd say he'd love to beat the **** out of him

Cocky foxy haired git in a leather jacket. Weren't there two girls in the ad with him who looked like twins who didn't say anything, maybe they were dancing or something?

Ha, you've a great memory. It's just missing one line. "Hi it's me , I've had me tea!" it just came after the "demolishes the rashers" line. I misquoted it in the thread title, was trying to remember how it went.
