    Interesting that the advert says Imperial Leather is made by Cussons. Cussons was selling washing up liquid for something like 25 cent in Tesco about 6 weeks ago and it's always been very cheap so they havent obviously been ring fencing Cussons as a premium brand despite the adverts.

    I couldn't think of much things worse than dropping the soap in a prison shower.

    Rumour has it if you do you get ridiculed for days by everyone in the prison. The inmates the prison guards all mock you and laugh at you in the canteen, in the prison yard for being such a clumsy oaf :(

    I'm old enough to remember that ad, but never shared the fantasy of bathing in a Concorde. But I often think fondly of the Hai Karate ads!!
