Basically it shows people with sensitive teeth eating ice lollies in pain in slowmotion and made my toes curl the first time I seen it and for the first time ever I went out and bought it.

Any other simple adverts just really click with you and give you the urge to go purchase a product?

Doesn't make me want to go and buy the product but I love the ad and think it's so original and catchy.

It's not selling a service or product so it's not fully an advert I suppose, but this drink driving one has stayed with me for life.

Yea that ad was sad and very memorable. Not really funny but when that ad was out, my brother would start singing that song really seriously every time I was in a car with him to wind me up

I always loved the ESB Going Home add from late 80s and the Dusty Springfield music just made it.

And of course the even older Tá sé ag teach.

The only good GAA ad.
It makes up for all the GAA ads where lads are shouting that they would really like to win the all-Ireland.

Can't get my favourite ad on YouTube. It was a beer ad with Joy Divisions Love Will Tear Us Apart so I'll settle for this one
