I think it's the old Severn Bridge
-
The old adverts were definitely much better, we never see food adverts now, think its soon going to be outlawed to even THINK of food, incase we all get obese dontcha know.
-
@MattTheSaiyan My guess would be the Humber Bridge.
-
I know this is an odd question to ask, but...can somebody please tell me the name of the suspension bridge in the "Yorkie" commercial?
-
I think I'm more susceptible to Seventies ads. That Guinness ad of the 90s which won all the awards - the one with a man surfing and horses for waves; "Tic follows tock follows tic" - did nothing for me. Yet the far simpler one here just makes me want to down a pint of the stuff.

@Feisty1967 My dad is a good mythbuster there for a truck driver!
-
Ha nice Yorkie ad. I use to drive them Daf 8500, Nice trucks.
-
Yorkie was based on the then current fad for American truckers and CB radio and Rowntree Mackintosh cashed in on it.
-
I can't believe how people preferred to deal with Smash rather than the taste of real mashed potatoes! Oy yay!
-
Just how much were BT (or the Post Office as it was at the time) ripping us off? 10p for a 3 minutes phone call? 35 years on and its cheaper than that!
Every time I watch these ad's it takes me back, back life when everything seemed so basic and simple!

Much better than adverts now - all about getting a loan, car insurance or life insurance..... yawn.
