Was that boycie in the brooke bond d advert

[@zeddeka]

Such great social history. The Oxo one in particular is interesting - putting gravy on kebabs?? It shows I think how food in the UK had been very limited (and bad) for a long time, and it was really only in the 80s when food from elsewhere became a bit more mainstream. It was a novelty to a lot of people, and many didn't really know how to eat it. Even now, you still occasionally see people in Italian restaurants trying to cut spaghetti with a knife.

[@CHRISlovesENGLAND]

Your absolutely spot on mate ive seen a few times in Italian restaurants older people cutting spaghetti with knives and forks lol 😆

[@richardcook3310]

That Smarties advert was way ahead of it's time 2:38

[@mulderandscully]

Boycie in a tea ad!

[@MattF340]

Certainly a lookalike if not.

[@mulderandscully]

It was definitely John challis . He had been doing only fools for five years by this! They just got rid of the tashe for the advert!

[@benfisher1376]

I think this is later that 1986. I seem to recall that D tea ad was from late 80s?

[@ianfryer8386]

I wonder who did the voice on the Scotch videotape advert. I always thought it sounded like Deryck Guyler.

[@explorer806]

Oh yes.

[@tungstentickler]

I've got that exact Seiko

[@josephriley4460]

I’ve got a Seiko too. They’re the best, like Japanese cars and electrics and cameras!

[@tomservo5007]

17:30 "I could do with the D" , implies something completely different today

[@antejl7925]

What? (yes I naïve)

[@byronmills5952]

A young Sam West describing the Blockbusters game?

[@mulderandscully]

No, it's not Sam west. Dunno who he is but Sam didn't look like that when he was 20.

[@TheHelenc77]

lainge??

[@simonbell64]

Every hise has a lainge

[@nellyfett2681]

Followed shortly after by stating the wine wasn't real!

[@josephriley4460]

When did they stop making coloured toilet 🚽 paper?

[@zeddeka]

They didn't. you can get it anywhere.
