UK TV adverts from 1998

[@kellie5476]

It's mad to think that when these were uploaded, they were 11 years old and now they're 22 years old. Where the hell does time go?

Holy shit, I noticed this too. Mandela Effect?

It changed to Olay in about 2000 Or so.

It used to be oil of ulay and they used to say "the oil of UK" on the adverts

[@GeorgeASFTHM]

9:29 You can tell that this is from around 1993-1994 as Danny Baker was everywhere. You can also tell that the pixelated washing powder is Persil - it would never be a Proctor and Gamble washing powder like Daz would it?

"Shell have halved the lead in their 4-Star Petrol" To Think that was once an ambitious selling point.

[@Al-Hunt-acrylic-painter]

I was doing an apprenticeship in 98 at a garden place called Compton acres in Poole, Dorset. I was jet washing some slabs, and the petrol jet wash was losing power and only putting out a small stream of water. So I wrote on a slab "Mr muscle does the jobs you hate". A year later, it was still there!

Amazing to think that Kleenix ad was 1998; it's proper early 90's style ! Good to know there was still some integrity and class in late 90's pop culture amongst the domination of lad/ladette depravity and degeneracy !

Does anyone remember a car commercial in the UK in 1998 I think it was where The Animals' We Gotta Get Outta This Place was used? It showed a car in a maze in the desert if I remember right then it showed the car get out of the maze and then it focused on the speedometer speeding up. I'm just trying to remember which make of car they were advertising.

[@visionist7]

I remember one with a car on the roof of a skyscraper driving fast on the edge of the building... and it was all filmed for real. Probably a Honda advert

[@sharperguy]

I can't watch it because I'm so trained to just space out and ignore them already

[@alanjeff505]

All these ads were an annoying interference to enjoying telly shows. It's funny how they seem to now enhance nostalgic feeling.

[@manofknowledge1000]

was thinking exactly the same thing. They actually enhance nostalgic feeling more than the enjoyable tv shows of the time

I think these adverts are from around 1995, not 1998. What was the song and artist used in the Maxwell House advert that I seem to remember? I think it was also used during Newcastle United's home matches in its Premership days, certainly in recent times.

[@beckystack1986]
