You've just reminded me of the when the ads about AIDS became a bit more mellow and less scary in the early 90s,which had celebrities like Pat O'Mahony,Hillary Fennell and Thom "The Diceman" McGintey giving advice on AIDS.The series of ads just had each of them sitting down in a darkened room speaking to the camera,with the exception of The Diceman who just held up a sign which read "It goes without saying.Protect yourself.Always use a condom."

I distinctly remember that bitch Hillary Fennell basically blaming men alone for the spread of AIDS in her ad.

Another version which ends with the serial killer doing this bizarre Hannibal Lector impression at the end. I cant for the life of me recall this version being shown back in the day, anyone remember seeing it? I'd imagine it must have been replaced early on as the effect is unintentionally comical.

The Hilary Fannin entry in those Aids pifs from the early/mid 90's.

Is that Des Nealon playing the husband I wonder? He went on to play the Pickarooney in Fortycoats and Simon Delaneys father in Batchelors Walk.

Another old RTE tv license pif, this was shown on Reeling In The Years.

It was posted on Killianm2s twitter account but he tends to take them down after a while.

Here he is. Safety Man. This is from 1979.

Actually after checking its from 1977, so seemingly pre dating the British Play Safe campaign.

Its up again in this reel, third one in.

That one is here at the 1:08 mark.

Here's another Health Education Bureau one. I think a shorter edit of this was used in the "fit enough to catch that bus" one.

Edit:it must have been "Fit enough to catch that train" rather than bus.
