Milky Way - Red Car/Blue Car (original 1989 ad)

[scaleop4]

lol this is still showing on TV in the uk

[dolphtrains2]

@scaleop4 no the edited version is still showing after a retro relaunch....this video is the actual original hence why it is longer

[UndeadTurk]

Brilliant animation.

[heehawluck1]

It's still being shown !!!???

[ackbarfan13]

Wow, an 80s add in HD! I was joking how bad the quality was on the other ones but this one is good!

[CstudiosTV]

This Version will be in a Steven Greenwood show soon:

Health & Safety and Steve had a Race,

All Health & Safety did was ruin the Place,

They took all good things from us, like the Orange Bendy Bus,

But good old Steve he took the Motorway,

He's looking for some speed, 70 is Good,

And he looks just about Right...

OH NO! The Bridge is out! Health and Safety fails!

But good old Steve he took the Motorway!

[smellybottys]

this is so classic wish they would remake this and mAKE IT BETTER

[XblackXopsXboyX]

Brillant better that the newest 1 that sucks the older 1 is better thums up

[jubjubcat]

@XblackXopsXboyX all they did was change a few lyrics

[EdWrite]

Great to see this fun ad uploaded, although I think the idea a "nanny state" is behind the change in the message is a little far-fetched. It has more to do with a tightening on advertising rules so companies cannot make unsubstantiated claims. Surely that's a good thing?

[gmgc81]

Have you noticed they've taken out the bit in the 2009 version where the red car falls into the chasm because he's too heavy. Probably a nanny state censorship because of the peril. I much prefer the 1989 version.

[MegabyteUnleashed]

@gmgc81 and by doing so, completely destroy the entire meaning of the advert.

[TheDancinmanson]

one of earliest memories of childhood. ah...

[pufferfishish]

Because the new edited version has removed the 'cos he knows it won't spoil his appetite' line, it no longer makes sense.

[MrPokemon657]

The Blue One Hate This Three times

[essentialiser]

it's a wonder why car insurance is so much nowadays (see video).

[jorali1]

Love this ad better than the one now and im only a teenager so its sorta strange according to my friends

[JCZzify]

This reminds me of my childhood!! :)

[tmsdonline]

Eh, it doesn't make quite as much sense without the "lunchville" and "dinnertown" signs.

[yipee1231]

who cood hate this :O

[MrBIGSMOKES]

my nephew loves this and crazy frog he wants to me to play them over and over agian im starting to memorise the words lol

[ladystarlight2hb]

[EllieHopex]

[RachelH1330]

I Love this advert <3 xx

[tulud]

[RachelH1330]

I love this advert <3 xx

[f00768500]

man, THESE were the days! but no more. why? coz we're now in the "PC/Nanny system"... and it's gone MAD!

and the sad irony is that now that kids r pretty much allowed to raise THEMSELVES, they're opting to spoil their appetites (and healthy development) with the very snacks that promised WOULDN'T spoil their appetites!

[scottishwildcat]

@f00768500 "No more"? This very advert has been back on British screens for the past couple of months.

[f00768500]

@scottishwildcat : ...but not in the same way! whole lines have either been changed beyond recognition or omitted altogether!

[heartbeat1965]

Great

[mrgeo89]

Lol why did they cut the original line?

[qwertasdcfghjklmo24z]

@mrgeo89 Health fanatics had a shit attack and demanded it be removed in case kids thought chocolate was healthy.

[lillefiske]

I got this song on my mind!!! :)

[kazimann]

Oh man, I remember this ad! Jesus, serious memory lane moment there!

[ZilogJones]

I only have this one recording of TSW, there is some in-vision continuity and some trailers (mostly generic ITV graphics) and stuff. I have a couple of Westcountry and UTV recordings too, not sure if there's much of interest besides ads. I have some cable stuff (mostly Sky One) but that will all be from 1998 or later.

[empirestatebuilding1]

@ZilogJones hi zilog. thanks for the upload. It takes me right back to my school days! God bless...thanks again.
