- A compilation of ads I found on various videotapes while I was archiving them. The sequence starts in 1989 but after that the dating is rather vague and mixed up for the early-to-mid-1990s. There are a few from the 2000s right at the end.
Because familiar situations and stereotypes help to support the effectiveness of advertising messages, and the people making the ads were most likely born around the middle of the 20th Century or a bit later, these commercials can't help looking backwards nostalgically as well as forwards to the UK's thrusting new business and commercial culture. I think there are definitely occasional glimpses of a Britain that would not have been out of place in the 1970s, as well as a pressure to keep up with the times and embrace change and new attitudes.
There are a few popular celebrities - most fondly recalled but one or two pariahs as well (I don't think we need any comments about *them*, we all know who they are).
It can be interesting to compare these British telly commercials with ones that are currently running today. Those products, companies and people you assume will be around forever? They can vanish from memory. But the roads will always be suspiciously empty, cars will provide a refuge from the wild world outside, and the family will get together for dinner. Perhaps there's a comfort in that.
Adverts whilst watching adverts how ironic 😂😂😂
Lovely to see Joe from the Royle Family in the Jewson ad.
Nice view of thd Oval Cricket ground. Seeing Millbank Tower in the middle background. Note at the right side of the view you can see one of the Vauhall "flat flats" (mid rise Lambeth council built point block) which had unobstructed views of Parliament
The Leeds Mortgages advert goes hard.
Who would have gnome!
Sort the tracking out! 😂
The Renault 21 advert was based on a British tv show called ‘the prisoner’
HTV was our local network.
Sok many members
was this filmed during the 1989 AFL season?
15:24 Rodenstock Photocolor.
What month and day did that Mac tonight ad aired: 39:22
I'm sorry, I don't know - my videotapes were recorded over and recorded over, so I just know it would be early/mid 1990s. I checked at hatads dot org (History of Advertising Trust) where there are lots of British McDonalds commercials but Mac Tonight isn't among them. Possibly the US parent company wanted to try it out in the UK.
Louisa Jamieson before she was in Eastenders or Emmerdale
But long after Doctor Who
Only recently watched a couple of old Who episodes with her in it as Tom Baker's companion
And Tenko! @@poppysperspective8947
1:19:21 She wasn't the only one.
32:26 RICHARD BUCKET THE RENAULT AD WAS THAT SIR PATRICK STEWART?
If you mean the first Renault ad,it wasn't Patrick Stewart.....the voice of the man trying to eliminate the Renault 21 driver sounds to me like Gabriel Woolf(the voice of Sutekh in Doctor Who)
Ad for water privatisation! 😠💩
