Just been looking at Olive oils online and saw that one where on the ad they repeat the name over and over, can't get it out of my head now!
"Filippo Berio, Filippo Berio, Filippo Berio" etc.

Murph, I would think your arrows reference comes from a Strongbow Cider advert. (Strongbow, as strong as your thirst). You can see what they did there, totally forgettable!.

I was once told that the Homepride flour advert was one of the most successful adverts in UK advertising history.
Prior to the advert McDougals dominated flour sales, but the little men in bowler hats advert caused millions of women/housewives to change brands and it blew McDougals away. Note who is speaking on the advert.

You're never alone with a Strand. That reminds me - I'm sure it was 'Consulate…….. Cool as a mountain stream' Plus: (You'll love this, Chuff!) Rothmans Cigarette ad on the Severn Valley Railway, 1970s

Absolutely brilliant murph for so many non PC reasons, that ad wouldn't even make it to the "boss I've got an idea" stage in any agency today!.

It definitely had me bitin' me nails, Chuff, because it wasn't looking at all good for her on several levels! PS: Just noticed that this is my 6000th post. "The Milky Bars are on me!"

Now the rest of us are singing it, too. Thanks, Eels! Similarly in operatic mode (I don't think we've had this one yet) to the tune of 'the Toreador Song' from Carmen: Ess-o-o Blue means 'appy motor-ing…. Ess-o-o Bluuuuuuuue, means 'appy mo……….tor-ing, Esso Blue means 'appy mo----toring, Esso Blue (Had to sing that to get the spacing right. You're lucky you missed it. )

Didn't see why I should suffer alone Something else that keeps crossing my mind is a phrase I'm sure is from an ad but all I can remember is a young lady saying "all the bubbles went up my nose". Surely a drink, maybe Babycham? Maybe I dreamt it 😕

Had an uncle who worked for John Collier in Hanley.
Sadly it meant he couldn't go to the League Cup Final and he missed out on watching the 74/75 team regularly.

The closest I found was a 1960s Vimto ad: "It twinkles right up your nose" and a 1960s Tizer ad line also put in an appearance: "Drink Tizer — The appetizer" which I guess a lot of folks will remember. Haven't searched for any Babycham ads, but from memory I think it was just a young lady saying "I'd love a Babycham".

Well thanks for trying, I'll have another search myself later, probably futile, it's not much to go on to be fair

I don't like the stuff at all, but do like its enemy, Coke, and must have got through gallons of the stuff a few bottles of it in the 1970s, when Bacardi was all the rage. When I was about seven I once ate a load of jam tarts (those giant flat multi-coloured jam ones you got in packs - no idea where I got them from) and had a bottle or two of Pepsi with them. I really stuffed my little self and the result was Never been able to stand the stuff, and even the word 'Pepsi' takes me straight back to those jam tarts and the sudden feeling in the digestive area that 'all was not well'.

Just-a one corrrrrrnetto’ – geeve eet to meeeee….. Um Bongo, Um Bongo, they drink it in the Congo Getting your head down, sweetie? Good idea...... (Leonard Rossiter/Joan Collins) Aacchhhh-rington Stanley???? 'Oo are THEY? ------ Exxx-acchhhhly! YOU GOT AN OLOGY???????? He's got an ology! And not forgetting:R. White's! R. White's! R. White's lem--on---a-a-ade……… I'm a secret lemonade drinker!Oh, and: Oxo gives a meal man appeal! PS: What was the ad which always ended with three arrows thudding into a board in rapid succession? In trying to find out about "the bubbles all went up my nose" for Eels I've just stumbled across this fabuloso extra snippet and it's literally the bottom line. I've also done a copy/paste of the whole song for you as I knew you'd all want to sing along: R. White’s Lemonade: 1973
I’m a secret lemonade drinker, (R. White’s, R. White’s)
I’ve been trying to give it up, But it’s been one of those nights (R. White’s, R. White’s). R. White’s lemon-a-a-ade, R. White’s lemon-a-a-ade, I’m a secret lemonade drinker, (R. White’s! R. White’s! R. White’s!) Sung by Elvis Costello’s dad
There you go.

BLUDDY HELL ! - He should've phoned the shop on the Saturday morning and said "Hello.... hello..... Dis is a bomb hoax......" PS: Next time you speak to him tell him "Murph went to it and she says it was BRILL - you would've really enjoyed it!"

Yep, remember the ads well, Clay - a sort-of giant orange Buddha figure in a loincloth running round suddenly smacking people. I'm sure the ads had to be banned in the end and folks/kids told not to do it under any circs because so many people were getting quite badly injured and literally having their hearing damaged from having been hit round the sides of the head so hard and so often. I was never Tangoed, otherwise I'd have ripped their bl**dy liver out.

And more than a few ( myself included ) got Tangoed.
