UK ITV advertisements (LWT region) - February 8th 1986 pt. 2

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 the second advert break shown during a repeat of 'The A-Team's second season episode 'There's Always A Catch' (1983), broadcast February 8th 1986 at 17:35 (some regions took it at 18:05), in the London Weekend Television / Thames region.

Adverts include:
* McDonalds (Ronald McDonald used to scare me as a boy!)
* Coco Pops
* Brylcreem
* Cadbury's Wispa (featuring Dennis Waterman and Rula Lenska, during one of the periods when they were married!)
* Knorr Cream of Quick Soup

I've also uploaded the first advertisment break from the same recording.
I am still going through all of my old tapes and uploading various clips, so check back regularly!

I remember that Wispa one. Apparently, Dennis' daughter Laura did not like Rula very much, although she was a hottie back in the day.

I remember in '86, Granada repeated some season 1 eps of The A-Team, including the one where they're fighting hijackers in a plane.

@leggybird100. And I meant "Girl in Tube".

[Spellchec]

Both of those ads are now on YouTube in the entirety. Just search for Brylcreem Judo and Brylcreem Gril in Tube. For some reason YouTube doesn't seem to allow you to paste in the actual links.

Jesus, that Ronald Mcdonald is one evil looking mofo. with that bright red lipstick he looks like he's already devoured one of the other unsuspecting kids.

Thanks Spellchec, sometimes I do wonder if I have dreamt these things when no-one else remembers them! Thanks also for the title, I knew it was a remix version by Art of Noise but couldn't remember what they'd called it

[Spellchec]

No, I remember it too, been looking for it on youtube for ages. It was the "Three Fingers of Love" version. I tend to associate it with late night Channel 4 in the mid-80s.
