Ding a Lings - Do stupid things Channel 9

[sorcy79au]

These ads were awesome. They should bring them back

[baronjrandy]

Does anyone find it funny that they made the ding a ling a red head? I'm sure the current PM wouldn't be impressed at the stereotyping, lucky it was made before all the political correctness came in.

[tpuglisi]

Had these on the east coast as well - WIN Wollongong at least...

[JDVHS]

[BiggerThinking1]

[Paige410]

Hey everybody - I'm 40 and I remember these from my childhood. These were first out in the late 70's, along with all the 'Life Be In It' ads (remember Norm and his family?? I think Norm was based on Arthur Dunger!) I used to sing these songs in bed when I was about 9 or 10 and it used to drive my brother insane!! Where is the one about the 'monsters' around the house - that was my favourite!

[jodienas]

[FreoRockMySox]

Omg I remember this! haha xD I'm 17 and use to love seeing this ad :) they should put it back!

[dockersrule]

[Welbungin]

[guatemama2]

I've been singing these PSA's to my kids for a couple years now and am THRILLED to find the videos here ... 'specially 'cause I live in the USA!!

[graceeight]

Just shown these to my two kids, they love them. Wish they'd put them back on TV. They were some of the best ads we had!

[dagoelius]

the brilliant Graham Bond from ABC's Aunty Jack variety hour- He wrote,sung and produced all these brilliant ads for channel 9.

Anyone know how to reach him?

[roryracer10]

@dagoelius Well actually they were co written, sung and all instruments played, arranged and produced by Rory O'Donoghue

[roryracer10]

Well actually they were co-written, sung, all instruments played and produced by Rory O'Donoghue.

[jasonhutchens]

@roryracer10 And they're brilliant; countless 30-somethings around Australia know and love these songs. Would love to see them performed on your channel, Rory :)

[schibets]

[katanning6317]

Thanks... I was brought up on these ads and am now going to show these to my three little guys...

[TeRRaYeLLeN]

omg wicked lol ah the memories ....

[bigfaluda]

I reckon it's Ernie Carrol. Channel Nine and that.

[stusouth014]

It's definitely Rory O'Donoghue and possibly Grahame Bond (both of 'Aunty Jack Show' fame)

[roryracer10]

@bigfaluda The complete soundtracks, voices and everything were done by Rory O'Donoghue and Grahame Bond. Animation by Gwyn Perkins.

[southwestblues]

[southwestblues]

Wow this brings back memories !

[claremd12345]

[1YOTC]

Don't hang around abos, kids.

[mikel758]

[scottcongdon]

the dingaling looks like a ranga to me

[JDVHS]

@scottcongdon lol

[badmoppity]

@1YOTC another thing Perth does well: produce racist fuckwits.

[drakkas666]

racist?! are you serious? That's the most ding-a-ling thing ive heard in a long time.Seriously dude, get a life.

[milesmedia]

Hmm, this ad is racist. Can't help but notice the "Ding a Ling" is darker than the other kids. Please explain Channel 9

[divideandmultiply]

I think it's more pertinant that the dingaling has red hair lolz.

[Quicksilver1111]

I still remember this word for word after all these years.

[88kyle88]

we all have a little ding-aling inside us BWAHAAHAHAHAHAH
