  • Classic.

    By the way this ad isn't from 90's, it's from 1983

  • Date changed thanks!

  • The glasses on the first woman. The GIGANTIC "NO" at 20 seconds.  The inappropriate touch from the daughter. And the RSC-trained clasp of the phone at the end. MEGA!

  • Lovely ad. So English!

  • @alexskylarking Your comment is more bizarre than mine.

  • @1GodOnlyOne Your comment is more bizarre than somebody actually liking this advert.

  • 0h how the world was in 1983... so perfect

  • Back when society was decent.

  • I can't believe that this was 1983!!! Damn - I'm getting old...

  • I don't see why people actually "like" this commercial.

    Bizarre.

  • Have you got Fly fishing by JR Hartley, No......OK have you got a copy of the Yellow Pages. No .................sod it!

  • Remember this one well. When I think of the yellow pages, I always associate it with that jingle, and the one and only J.R. Hartley.

  • Lovely ad. I remember this from when I was a little boy (it was on for donkeys years) and it is one of those ads you wouldn't resent during a commercial break. A kindly old man looking for something & he gets it in the end. I love it 'cos it has that warm, lovely feeling about it. I bloody wish they'd bring it back.

  • @ChayD I always hated that bit. He reminded me of a man in an independant bookshop near us, all half-moon glasses, pompous and ill-tempered.
