TV ads that really stuck with you.

As in you still remember the product years later?

I don't know why, but an old ad popped into my head, and I figure that it was good advertising as although I had no interest in the product I still remember it. It was Sure deodorant - they would spray a 'tick' on some girls back, she would have a mini adventure in the jungle then she would appear all hot & sweaty everywhere except the tick.

The all time classic has to be the Carling Black Label ads - very funny, often playing on other ads, and the common 'catchphrase' mentions the product. Genius!

The other one that I still laugh at was the Smash potato one with the robots laughing. They made a few of them but the first was the classic. Horrible product!

Sheer joyful genius.

"Where EXACTLY did you bury the car Kevin?"

"In the Saaaannndddd!"

From which point forward everyone doing something stoopid at school was referred to as a Kevin. 

(Apologies to any Kevins on here, it's not personal, before that you would have been called a right Leonard - for some unexplained reason)

I've no idea what advert it was, so the marketing thing didn't work all that well.

That was the AA.

I always preferred the Wonderbra version.

For some bizarre reason, the Finger of Fudge song popped into my head the other day. Must be over thirty years since I last saw the advert.

There was one ad years ago, the product I don't recall but I think it was tea.

I was impressed with the stop motion animation and it always stuck with me.

The character in the ad was racing a car and they did a double de-clutch when changing gears and while I don't recall the product I remain impressed to this day at the attention to detail.
