[Mastermind12358]

[LordKKM]

@Mastermind12358 doesn't stop people from being asses and driving on

[Mastermind12358]

@LordKKM

are everyone that rude in the uk ?

[SNESIvan]

This doesn't sounds incomprehensible.

[ralfbot1]

Splink wtf

[MattWindsor91]

Well, now we'll all forget the Green Cross Code. And fail to use it.

[PortalJumper98]

SPLINK, SPLINK, SPLINK, SPLINK, SPLINK, SPLINK

[RavenSkyewalker]

I... what, Jon? No SPLINK. A better advert would be "Cars are like Daleks. If you get in their way, they will exterminate you. Good day!"

[Extermidalek]

RIP Jon Pertwee.

[mrliampep5i]

Splink???? PFFT i have a better one

Choose a safe place to cross

Observe theres no traffic coming

Cross the road confidently

Keep looking for traffic

C.O.C.K

[papoj1PVR]

@mrliampep5i

We need to make a public announcement on that. :D

[ShillishousTV]

this is only worth watching because of the kid at 0:04 who whips his hair back n forth

[ognagraunt]

awfully good ads was here.

[MeMyselfAndLouis]

The one and only.

[Ramonajunie3]

If you actually did all of this you'd be run over for being incredibly slow

[kyon813]

"Now we'll all remember the Green Cross Code, and if you don't, I'll Venusian akido your ass!"

[andyp1986]

That wasn't contrived and confusing at all, was it?

"Now we'll all remember the Green Cross Code!"

- Uh...no we won't.

"SPLINK!"

- GAH!!

[tf2whackyengineer]

o_o

O_O SPLINK!

o_o

[RRVCrinale]

@4glados What about Guru Larry?

[rojblake82]

I wonder what Dexter Fletcher is doing with himself these days, I know he was in Bugsy Malone as Babyface and he later found fame in a children,s series Press Gang. Dexter played Spike Thompson a character who fancied Julia Sawalha's character Lucy, I think Dexter was in an advert with Julia Sawalha and some of the other cast members, in the 80s or 90s an advert about drugs if I remember correctly.

[DeltaPhi79]

Good luck doing this at an intersection.

[kitkatsaysrawr]

dont SPLINK. SPLINK and youre dead. they are slow, slower than you can believe. don't look away, don't turn your back, and DON'T SPLINK. good luck.

[recon500]

@kitkatsaysrawr I didn't get it at first but then I saw the episode where it came from, then I laughed my ass off.

[MONKEYJAW89]

that made the man splink

[MONKEYJAW89]

this made me splink

[TA8AT]

Shplink!

[Kodocha7]

is it just me or is this THE MOST AMAZING THING EVER

[JackLovesTheDoctor]

Ah his face at the end when he says SPLINK!

[debluemonkey]

Why is there I or K?

[debx2000]

It's Dexter Fletcher and Todd Carty. Kids looked skanky in 1976.

[god0fgod]

I think Stop, Look, Listen is easier to be honest.

[bubbaman235]

whats with the kids face at 3-5 seconds?

[chevchelios72]

(Factoid)

The taller boy (of the two) is pre 'Grange Hill' Todd Carty

[Carnage1235]

Ahh, bloody English.

[russellkerr]

Good job they didn't spell it in upper case.

[wisteela]

Brilliant and mad.

[wisteela]

Awesome. LOL :D

[MFAtlas]

It's the doctor!

[lizzielizzie]

Wow, that's the most broken acronym ever! Worth it to see Jon Pertwee yell "Splink!"

[overlordcacius]

why aren't more people splink roll'n!!!!!

[conradojavier]

I GOT SPLINK ROLL'D!

[HighlyVisibleNinja]

The Third Doctor must like Splinking with Sarah Jane....

[KakiHat]

@HighlyVisibleNinja *Facepalm*

[ferretyluv]

Wow, we got it a lot simpler in America. Just "Stop, Look, Listen".

[Newbonzy]

Splink - Stupid People Loligag In, uh Traffic. SPLINT!

[bloodrunsclear]

Cross is spelled with a K?

[Crutchcor]

Splink.... that's how my dad Died.

[SteveCentra]

SPLINK MOTHERFUCKERS SPLINK

[Starryvideos]

A cup of tea and s slice of cake

[SpotxSpot]

Don't SPLINK. SPLINK and you're dead.

[FrederickThePie]

0:04 What the fuck is the kid in the middle doing? It think he's possessed O.O The entire thing is just fucking hilarious

[ethanpika]

lol since jon pertwee is one of the doctors i thought that it was from doctor who

[Muskateering]

Thplink!

[SonsOfBansky]

I have completely forgotten what it stands for already 0_o

[lmckay023]

if the 3rd doctor came up to me and shouted splink i wouldnt know what he was saying but i would still do it. no one fucks with a timelord

[bbqplatypus318]

Don't splink. Splink and you're dead.

[gregtamnel0576]

The Doctor had a rough regeneration, apparently.

[SpotxSpot]

Wonder how many people got sent here by ashens...

[simpleminded1uk]

The splink thing is bad enough, but who took his teeth?

[meafunguy1]

it would be funny in a sick way if the followed that and still get run over.

AND ALL THREE OF THEM AT ONCE XD!!!!!!!!1!!1

[chevchelios72]

Jon FUCKING Pertwee is the man!

[Jez32uk]

@chevchelios72 Who Da man, Dr Who that is

[mutinyonthekitkat]

After watching it I've forgotten what the letters stand for already, and I'm an adult now.

[GoodTimesMuch]

Stupid People (Like Idiots) Never Kare.

BOOM BABY.

[somariman1]

John Pertwee scares me.

[chopin65]

Yeah, and bunnies.

[Drinkman7]

Who came up with Splink? its like a drunk dyslexic came up with it LOL.

[Kevo216666]

I'm back again after 4 months to get my SPLINK fix.

[lotrcrazygirl]

SPLINK!

love his face!!

[zambookii]

His face at the nd when he says "SPLINK" is hillarious lyk lmaooo

legendary!!

[WrongRoadRailways]

Perhaps, since leaving Dr Who in 1974, Jon Pertwee says Splink to do his time travelling...

[LuvsGeorgeSampson14]

wtf

splink how fucking gay

[dogeymon83]

Splink???? LOL!! Why not create an acronym 50 letters long? I'm sure kids will remember that just as well.

[Iegendlol]

SPLINK!

[2DM]

0:04

wow.

[JBGUY2K]

SPLINK!!!

[Kevo216666]

No one Splinks like Pertwee.

[Kevo216666]

Splinkin' genius!!!

[koosk41]

Isn't that Todd Carty on the right?

[TehKalkkuna]

Errm wat? Look what does that kid in the center do at 5 secs. Seizure? :D

[darksmeg]

Well noticed xD

[hedleythorne]

Get back in your tardis!

[Xbox360danslayer]

Just got splink rolled

[Phobos957]

SPLINK,bitch!

[XblackmondayX]

the kids look retarded looking left and right while walking across the road

[kieran9031]

LOOK AT HIS FACE :)

[holabalooser]

he looks like your dad

[JoeFox23]

I can just imagine some little kid trying to cross the street.

"OK, Splink... what the fuck does that stand for again?"

[Rillor]

Roflsplinkter.

[vastariner]

This is like Fist Of Fun's Peter Dibdin, with his mad mnemonics for learning how to drive. Like the traffic light sequence..."red is the colour of the apple, that's right, stop"..."but what about green apples?"

[eleanorworm]

The dodgy guy at the end

Haha Wow

SPLINK

[Ashworth6]

I wonder how many children were mown down by traffic in the 70s because they had to rely on this rubbish acronym. The technobabble Pertwee spouted as Dr Who made more sense.

[holabalooser]

pervert

[TALK2meFM]

hahahah that guy looks drunk

[LilyKnotwise]

I love Jon Pertwee. This is the best advert ever.

[Shifterred]

That was the best thing ever.

[Zachmister]

splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink splink

[tallaussiebloke]

Ah, good old Dr. Ashens.

[PrinceGaz]

Stop, Pavement, Look, If, No, Keep.

Well the first half of Splink makes some sense, but I've a feeling they ran out of meaningful words they could use and still make an acronym that can be said out loud. I'm glad that film predates my learning to cross the road, because I'd probably get run-over while crossing trying to remember what the hell the "ink" parts actually stood for, instead of watching out for cars.

[KlayMan2007]

SPLINK!!

[TomSFox]

That's a nice way to remember it for kids who can't read.

[RacerX93]

If you don't use SPLINK, you use SPLAT!

[TheMiniEvilGuy]

I want John Pertwee's babies.

[ScrewAttackEurope]

They'll be pretty mummified babies now, considering hes been dead for over 10 years.

[fattoler]

SPLINK!

[jos0531]

SPLINK

[lindarahldeen]

This commercial deserves to win forever and ever.

[Ihateprovos]

fuck me, that caught on didnt it!

[MYchemICAlRomanCEBMJ]

what does splink stand for?

[Applemask]

If you don't know after watching the film, you never will. Which is why they scrapped it.

[MYchemICAlRomanCEBMJ]

just watch his eyes at the end

classic

i cried it was so hilarious

[markstirton]

no, it's Jon Pertwee. Who I met once in aberdeen, just before I got run over. DTTDWWC! Don't Talk To Doctor Who While Crossing.

[TherezaBazaaar]

splunk lol!

[TheOncomingStorm07]

Lol! Now I'll remember the green cross code! I only know part of it from the hedgehogs!!!>.<

[kevyboy545]

That's Tucker Jenkins

[themetalcloud]

no its John Pertwee

[knifesedge]

No it is Tucker Jenkins (and Mark Fowler)! - Todd Carty played the elder boy and the younger boy is Dexter Fletcher from Lock, Stock and Hotel Babylon

[beaton67]

thanks for that, i never took much notice untill you mentioned it, well done that man

[rojblake82]

@knifesedge Dexter Fletcher first got, famous in a childrens show press gang which also starred Julia Sawalha.

[classrule]

WTF?

[stig114]

A mneomic can only work if it makes any bloody sense.

[MisterTrimble]

There was an alternative version of this PIF, in which white animated arrows pointed to the children's feet in the "stand on the pavement near the kerb" part, and the listening part of the drill was enhanced with an animated "radar" and synthesized sound effect. In turn, has anyone realised that the older boy's Todd Carty in his pre-Grange Hill days?

[knifesedge]

Yep and the younger lad is Dexter Fletcher

[MisterTrimble]

Now that I honestly didn't know, so thanks for passing it on.

[Tradermike2005]

splink!

[gabrielnyc]

Um? Um what? Out with it, you insipid iliterate little runty bastard. you're not some smarmy little teenager.

[Donalisme]

I love alliteration.

[crowningglory]

um...
