Those were the good old days when Marathon wasn't called Snickers, that's when Britain started to go downhill when we were overtaken with foreign names.
The newsagent in the TVTimes advert is actor/singer Mike Berry, who also played Mister Spooner in the later episodes of "Are You Being Served?", and the late Charlotte Coleman's father in Worzel Gummidge.
Notice how the paper delivery boy looks all cheery and innocent, today a hoody type, would say ' what you looking at, you tosser'.
