I am gradually sorting through some of my ancient video tapes to log what is on them, and capturing some vintage clips whilst I do so.
Here is an advertisement break shown the British television premiere of the 'unofficial' James Bond 007 film 'Never Say Never Again' (1983), shown on Thursday 25th December 1986 (known in some circles as Christmas Day!). The adverts are of the Thames (/London Weekend Television) region. Being from the Christmas period, there are lots of sales advertised!
Adverts include:
* Swan lager
* Interflora
* Dettox
* Nescafe Gold Blend
* Jaeger sale
* Texas sale (argh!)
* Lloyds Bank (part of as series featuring Leo McKern)
* Martini Extra Dry
I have also uploaded the other two ad breaks from the film.
I am still going through all of my old tapes and uploading various clips, so check back regularly!
That Dettox music is very Blade Runner.

I have often wondered do people go to d.i.y, carpet, sofa, bed stores on Boxing day? I would sooner stay in and get drunk ;-)

Didn't that Martini advert nick the music from the old Turkish Delight ad??

Well that advert is a load of old tosh...there is no way in the world he would have got three phone calls on that phone before the battery had run out...

As I've already pointed out somewhere else on here, the Lloyds Bank ad sums up the dynamics of 1986 better than almost anything else.
