When I was a kid I remember my brother and I just laughed at that BP ad. 'Britain is a Pest' was our alternative tag. Funny huh (well, I was 12!).

[olliedann]

Yes, I was also 12 at the time. Remember me and my brother joking about that one too!

[AntarcticaTelevision]

[danielscourt]

I was the bass player in the band. It is so great to see that clip after all these years! Thanks for posting it.

That Central ident was discontinued in November 1983.Yet this clip is meant to be 1984.Thames endboard says 1984.All Central repeats were with the new ident.Strange.

[giantbluemarlin]

OMG those nonces in leg-warmers at the end made me cringe so hard I actually nearly puked!

You should have a warning before that bit.

The following shocking 80s crap may waste your dinner and burn your sinuses with stomach acid/bile and possibly even feces. Viewer discretion is advised.
