Xena: Warrior Princess Channel 5 (Five) advert (August 1997)

This is an advertisement that U.K. Channel 5 ran to promote their run of 'Xena: Warrior Princess'. It is made up of clips from the first season episodes 'The Titans', 'Prometheus', 'Death In Chains' and 'Hooves & Harlots', set to 'You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet' by Bachman-Turner Overdrive. I love this commercial, it reminds me of the hot summer when I discovered this series and the excitement that went with it (too bad Channel 5 just abandoned the show mid-way through - thank goodness for the Region 1 DVDs!).

Check out my other Xena and various vintage clips.

I am still going through all of my old tapes and uploading various clips, so check back regularly!

Cool, they put nice clips together (unlike most promos). Xena owns..

[JayFirestorm]

I totally agree. The majority of promos are just a few hotch-potch of clips thrown together from whatever episodes are due to air at the time, but this promo is one of the best I've seen. It reminds me so much of the excitment of having a new channel and a new favourite series.

That would be great. An will post the two promos I have this friday

[JayFirestorm]

I'll have to dig them out; I have 400+ old videotapes(!), many of which have been relegated to a large box in the loft since I've moved over to VHS; but I've definately got some Herc promos somewhere on them!! =)

[AsylumLawless]

u r a god. As a BIG Xena fan I am always looking for prmos of the serise. Five was were I found it but only have 2 bites of footage promoting the show. Please tell me u have some promos of Hercules the Legendary Jouneys to?

[JayFirestorm]

I've been looking EVERYWHERE for my Hercules trailers. They didn't bother promoting the show too much later on, but did several at the begining. I'm sure I've got some recorded SOMEWHERE - I'll keep looking! I've uploaded some more Xena trailers though =)

BEST SERIE EVER

[ShoulderAB07]

OMG I remember this advert when it was first aired! Unbelievably lucky somebody kept it long enough for the birth of Youtube.

I kept doing the voice "Xtrong", "Xexy", "Xensitive", "Xtick". Even when I got the entire collection recently I did that voice. My sincere thanks to you jayfirestorm.
