Joe & Petunia Dial 999 and ask for the Coastguard 

I like how it turns from funny to serious immediately after Joe reads the balloon! Well I never!

there should be more adverts like this on tv

Joe's got rid of his slippers too and got himself some Adidas trainers

amazing re make

I was in a situation like Joe but sadly the man in the sea didn't have the ability to blow a speech bubble out his mouth, so he died.

Joe and Petunia are hilarious!! 0:50 to 1:00 is the best bit lmao :P

Interesting that they've remade this, I hadn't heard anything about it. People have mentioned the iPod and the chemtrail from the jet, but what I spotted first was Joe wearing a chav's Burberry baseball cap which of course is a relatively new phenomenon.

Good remake, nice touch on turning the knotted hankie into a Burberry cap

I love this advert, I couldn't stop laughing for ages!

do not watch this while stoned, it is far too funny

they'll have Reginald Molehusband parking a Vauxhall Corsa next....

Bit daft to add a mobile phone?.

At first I thought this was a realy old cartoon thing, then I saw the ipod and was like WTF!

All the modern adaptations but still told to "DIAL" the Coastguard. Not dialed anything in years!

Saw it on tv today and thought it was hilarious! Just how all the details had been updated for today. I like the burberry cap!

I remember the original.....

They used to show on Channel 5 at 5: 55am, before 'Milkshake' started and in 2008 on Bravo before 'Xena: Warrior Princess' started.

@WhatsTheStory94 do these kinds of adverts play in the early hours of the morning on challenege tv

Pink girl looks like a whole cotton candy roll

What if 1960s cartoons will have modern stuffs like computer, phones and ipod

Love this 21st century rendition! What does Petunia have on her MP3?

@19bootsy68 She's been inhaling fish and chips, Wimpys, and knickerbocker glories

This advert was made in 1970 so its amazing how Petunia has an Ipod and Joe has a mobile phone lol

Using '911 & ask for the coastguard' for-years :)

Remember the original ad when I was a kid. I used to think it was "dial 999 and ask for the Coast Card!"

i bet you never noticed they also added a plane leaving a nice chemtrail

Class. 'thats what they call em, Sailing Dingy'

not waving but drowning...

SO REAL to the original

glad you agree, deary me, this sparked a good hour of laughter :/

I thought the car in the background looked modern for 1968 lol It run for ages this advert. I thought he wore a tied up cloth on his head.

I thought it was from the 60's and 70's this, but when I saw the I-Pod, mobile phone and computer, I thought it must not be. But it's a remake of the 1968 version.

Remake all the oldies I say, much better messages than what we get today

this can save someones life

a class act these too they dont give a fuck i like Joes new mobile i wonder is Petunia listening to Lieutenent Pidgeon

Brilliant!

"Dial 999 and ask for the Coast Card".

This is where JK Rowling got the name for Harry's Aunt Petunia in Harry Potter

Still brilliant lol

i remember this as a child..lol

Goooweee Joe lovely day ,petunia, genius

Briliant.

@accebernosam its a remake thats why the original doesnt have it !

May 2006 this modern version came out but I thought Joe and Petunia got killed off in the WORN TYRES KILL ONE (GASPS) ILLUMINATI CONFIRMED!!!!!!!!

Must be 2006, I saw the Ipod😂
