Graham Kennedy's Blankety Blanks Lemonade - TV commercial

[retrooldcommercials]

I love the pastel look of those 70s plumbicon colour cameras used in adverts, it has that certain character to them. I take it the commercial was shot on a portable broadcast camera like a RCA TK-76 or Philips LDK-2?

A friend of mine had a complete unopened case of BB's Lemonade cans - told me (10 years ago now) got offered $2000.00aus - I can't imagine what it would be worth today!

I CAN REMEMBER DRINKING IT HOLY SHIT WISH I KEPT THE CANS

Graham Kennedy's Blankety Blanks Lemonade is so delicious that it's _____.

OMG I so remember buying one of these!  I must have been 5yo ... thanks for posting

[bloggaloggs]

Does anyone know if these cans & bottles might still be found at collectors fairs, bric a brac shops, or such?

They do occasionally pop up on eBay...

[quizmaster85]

I wonder if it tasted like BLANK...

[Conniptions886]

As I remember, it was bloody awful - I much preferred Leed...

Grundy must've made a fortune.

My mum wouldn't let me buy it - she thought that Gra Gra was too rude...

i remember having this at kfc in manly when i was a little kid. It was the large can and too much for me to finish :)

[Aphra68]

I remember this was around briefly when the show was happening. But never thought of it since until I saw this.

[heine71]

Since there's a Blankety Blanks Lemonade in Australia, how come in the USA there was never a lemonade in the American equivelent of Graham Kennedy's Blankety Blanks called "Match Game" with host Gene Rayburn?

[KingFahtah]

you sound like being seriously deprived. My smpathy :)

[MrLogoman007]

Because Match Game Lemonade doesn't sound appealing. Besides, if such an idea was feasible in the US, Todman would've thought of it already. He was in the business end of G-T.

@heine71 That would've been good. I would've loved that.
