Trawling through various clips on youtube etc.... as you do.... and 25 clicks later I stumbled across an old advert that brought the memories of the 80's flooding back.
Anyone remember C&A ? I know they still exist throughout Europe, but not sure if there is a branch in the UK now.
Anyway, here is the ad. Complete with wonderful retro them tune. (Look out for the President of the IAAF right at the end of the clip!)
Gene.

Good spot Gene. I love watching old adverts and public information films etc. I think the 80's was a golden age for tv adverts with VW, BA, BT etc. I could spend all day on You Tube looking at these

Now I've watched it, I do remember that theme music.
Used to go to the Croydon branch and buy their Clockhouse jeans!! Height of sophistication!
I do wonder what that young lady's asking him when she invites him to the phone box????!!!!!!!!!!???????

A Bovril ad for The Professionals fans. Embedding has been disabled so you'll need to watch it on youtube.

There were a few others in that series of ads, the only other one I can see on youtube has Chris Evert in it.
