UK ITV advertisements (LWT region)- September 30th 1984 pt.1

PB on celery is common in the us. If you put raisins on top it is called "ants on a log."

[dirtydonki]

when they were on TV we hated them. Now they are nostalgic. LOL

Ya'll in England have such cool commercials! The Shredded Wheat boxes here in the US didn't contain buttons w/stars' pictures on them. I would have LOVED to have had the WHAM! button when I was a kid!

@kevikan2 You get a lot of Kellog's cereals we don't get though.

[KOATV]

It makes me think back to home & London again

Thanks!

peanut butter on celery (!)

[netpreference]

Oh wow... been searching for the Shreddies advert for a LONG time... I'm in it! Was 14 at the time... thankyou!

[marksoutof10]

There was a time when I was gullible enough to fall for most TV adverts, including those for peanut butter. I think that when I discovered said product was the edible equivalent of Polyfilla, I was from then on not so easily influenced by commercials!

[UKArchiveTV]

you ought to clip out the Entertainers cartoon and host that, it's terrific!

BEWARE AIRWOLF IS COMING!

One of the old early Halifax adverts that feature people forming an 'X' as the bank's logo was probably the inspiration that led to its ads in the early 1990s.

[drfrisby]

My dad has always referred to peanut butter as "yum yums" after that ad came out.

[NikkiClo]

I remember the badges with the cereal.. I swear I had the Michael Jackson one!

[trissybabes]

God, it's like therapy...

[roastlonely]

my old mate did the forward flip at 00.06 on the shredded wheat ad mental to see that again, he also bodypopped on a peanut butter ad id love to find that

[brhodes0]

I remember the day at school when something strange happening. Kids bringing in cardboard boxes and then chucking themselves about like loons. Didn't know what was happening until a lad gave me a tape with 'electro' written on it. Now got all the street sounds albums. That was fantastic that shreddies ad.

[funkg]

brilliant and one of my fave bond momemts

[scottandrewsykes]

On the peanut butter advert did I see someone put peanut butter on celery?, or am I just imagining things- Brilliant ads, Im 25 so this is an education..........lol- thankyou

[JayFirestorm]

I just looked - I think they did! It was like, "let's show as many uses for Peanut Butter as possible!". And on the Shreddies pop stickers advert... I just love how they hype it up, like one tiny sticky disk will bring so much joy!!! =)

[agfagaevart]

I'm considerably older than 25,and these ads give me a little nostalgic kick. Friday nights with Airwolf were the bees-knees back in 1984.

[KevCityboy]

I'm only 22 so wasn't born until a year later. These are good ads though.
