  • @iostream1 I would guess St Bruno or Condor ready rubbed.

  • I,sir, am in search of the condor.

  • '...no wonder Britain is broken with attitudes like that in the 80's...'

    Amazing to deduce an entire social analysis of present day Britain from 30 seconds of advertising comedy! My hat off to you...

    It was indeed Stocker's Lock. The boat was actually on a platform hoisted up and down by a massive crane! Well they could hardly empty a lock on the GUC 35 times in half an hour, could they?

    My part in that day? The lockkeeper - that's me, that was. Weird looking at him now...

  • The pipe is a laugh. I had smoked one briefly in my 20's. So I bought a 30 bob 'second' to remind myself. I remembered how hard it is to light one. They had a bunch of expensive brand new, unused 'gold spot' Dunhills in the waiting-room at the audition. I declined and instead filled and lit mine several times while waiting to go it. When I got in they said ‘OK, fill the pipe and light it.’ I mimed filling it, successfully lit up with a single match, and sat back puffing gently away...

  • ...idly wondering how many of my competitors had failed to get their new freshly-filled 100 quid Dunhills going. Pretty sure that wheeze helped get me the job.

    Later I went for the wardrobe fitting. I said ‘um... so what about the pipe. Have you picked one?’ They said ‘Oh, you looked pretty comfortable with your own. We’ll go with that...’ 40 or 50 grand to make the commercial - starring a 30 bob pipe from a ‘seconds’ box!

  • I wish I could find the one where he blows up the radio controlled airplane.

  • @boatlx Yeah I've been trying to get the submarine Condor ad for ages, no luck though!

  • It was in America at that time when cigarette adverts weren't legal, apart from cigar and pipe tobacco ads.

  • @filmnet I am referring to television advertising, of course.
