60s were brilliant, 80s were creative, 90s were the best... now it's all crap cos humanity reached its peak at the turn of the century. On the anniversary of the tragedy, 911 was the point at which the West began to decline
Loved the 80s! Ads were, Short, clear, well spoken, funny and straight to the point. Now, they are .. Loud, irritating, uninteresting, fast paced and poorly spoken at times.
@@Useaname Sylvestra le Touzel. Rather typecast as a Sloane Ranger. Haven't seen her in anything for years. Rather out of the same mould as Haydn Gwynne: posh totty who you could never decide whether were fanciable or bloody scary.
Same here ,I was born in 61 . If you research what's going on we are living in Very sinister times . I'm just glad me and my mum n dad before me lived our lives when we did
@@keithphilbin3054 And...unemployment was just over 3 million. Even though there were fewer landlords around, who could afford to buy those 16k houses even back then? Thank Maggie!
I was 6 or 7 back then Remember and ads for Blue band and Gold Margarines. Also remember the ad for a breakfast cereal Start and ads for Kellog''s Fruit and Kellogg Fibre and Kellogg's Bran Flakes. Kellogg's Start had the slogan song Lets Stick Together. Gosh those were the days when credit cards were new and places didn't always take them. I remember my mum making a cheque out getting cash back with bank card in our local Waitrose when doing the Weekly Shop. My dad occasionally smoked Viligar Cigars I don't remembering him drinking either of the beers advertised but I remember one of mum's friends drinking Martini. I do remember may parents using making coffee using Dowe Egberts filter coffee.
@@handsoffmycactus2958 These In th1980s there was a bath of soap which had the same name it is no longer on the market. Since the late 1990s there has been a Washing Powder/Liquid and fabric conditioner. The original washing up liquid now also in upside down Max version exists a part of a wider range washing up products. also exists in Dishwasher products.
Nanette Newman in the Fairy Liquid ad. She is a very attractive lady, but they hired a lady extra, with much more beautiful hands than Nanette, for the hands close-up shots!
The young lad in the Heineken advert is Mark Hadfield. He was 3 or 4 years ahead of me at Bramhall High School. He played Pizzaro in the school production of Royal Hunt of the Sun.
I remember seeing Robocop when I was 8, when the violence kicked in it made me realise why it was an 18 and I shouldn't be watching it. Didn't stop me, although some of the images are still vivid 😂
That Coke ad towards the end is pretty invisible on the internet in any form. Searching for the song/lyrics used or the fact that Jennifer Runyon from Ghosbusters (Female Student Venkman does his ESP experiments on) appears to be in it very for a few frames, all turn up with zilch when you Google it. The only other evidence that I’m aware of that this ad exists is an old Ben Elton routine about the absurd lyrics and lifestyle this ad portrays.
When chocolate was proper size and things lasted and had quality. Now chocolate is smaller like everything else with a fair trade label which means shareholders dividends not what they say. And the throw away culture we now have because nothing lasts too keep you know shareholders happy. Cooperate greed has ruined western society.
@@handsoffmycactus2958 I should of said Deflon. Look up Dupont and the film Dark Waters as they explain it better than I can. And deflons health issues.
@@mekonta Why should ads in 21st century be allowed to espouse the views of the 20th century just to spare the creativity? Surely those making the ads shouldn't be spared having to realign material with the changing views of society on certain topics? Indeed some would argue that for some products the material in the ad has to change in order for the ads produced to remain relevant to the time it is shown. What was funny/cool/acceptable in the 1980s is not always be viewed. that way a generation or more later. For e.g. the PG ads with the monkeys might well be viewed as cruel today or to ad certain food/drink products as only for consumption by one gender is not acceptable.
Considering the massive turnover petro chemicals are making now. When the rest of us are buying air fryers to try and lower our bills. Sounds like patronising.
