The line at the end was "dont say yes say yop". I have yet to find anyone who even remembers this ad, its as if I made it up in my head. It was the most bizzare advert I've ever seen. Used to be on during the den i think. Any help to find a clip of it would be great Thanks

darkdubh wrote: » That Yop ad got me thinking of a similar weird one from the 80s for Caprison(or was it Kaprison?).It featured these claymation characters waiting at a bus stop and two of them get into an argument about squash and Caprision.At the end one of them melts into a puddle of goo.I've often wondered if I dreamt it.
Seasan wrote: » That ad,I think,was for Capri-Sun. I vaguely remember some of the ad where one of them is drinking ordinary orange squash and the other is drinking Capri-Sun,every time the former said "squash" the latter said "capri-sun",and it ended up with the squash one either gettin squashed himself or melting while still saying "squash".

I still remember the first ad that came out for it on Irish TV-twas somebody who looked like a newsreader in a studigrio,and there was a mini screen in the top corner with a woman ironing her clothes and smelling them,while the "newsreader" says "...do your clothes sometimes smell when you iron them?" and then he says ".....well now we have....RADION!!" And on British TV,Anne Diamond was doing ads for Radion Micro,with the slogan "...It's The Best Yet".

Seasan wrote: » And guess what?? Ive just remembered another ad similar to that one-the trouble is the only thing I remember is that in this ad the line they are saying is "DAVID MALONE HAS GONE THROUGH THE ROOF" or something....
Eeden wrote: » Yeah, I think that one was for a guy getting a loan for a home extension (attic conversion). Still don't remember the bank, though.

One about beans or spaghetti,where two kids visit a haunted house and there is a song which starts with "Come to the haunted house for tea,you'll be amazed at what you'll see...." and it finishes up with the line "It's our speciality",and the kids turn into vampires? Or this one about ice-lollies-a Hansel and Gretel themed ad where the kids say "Oh wicked witch,do something nice,turn into a water-ice...." ???
