    Much respect to *that one guy* who did basically every voiceover in the 80s. You know the one. Yeah, him. Worked his arse off through the 80s n subsequently formed a massive portion of my sense of nostalgia lmaooo

    That Commodore C16 package looks an absolute deal for the time, i loved the second-hand one i had but understand that when new they didn't sell that well, hence the Xmas bargain?

    That Ronco display looks interesting! Am in the US and we did not have half of these items!

  • @colinr0380
    @colinr0380 Před 3 lety +1

    Those BHS adverts comparing two people sitting next to each other seems similar to the kind of spy thriller set up when two characters accidentally swap bags. The grumpy lady ends up with all of the nifty BHS gear whilst the previously smug shopper turns out to have a bag full of Soviet secrets and spends Christmas and New Year on the run from assassins!

  • @ColmORourke1981

    Most of those Ronco items are weapons.
