A selection of adverts from 1980... - British Rail Awayday
- Philips Teletext TVs
- Austin Princess
- Ford Fiesta
- Elastoplast
- Bookassettes
I am pretty sure that the Austin Princess advert was filmed a couple of streets from my parents house in Edgware, NW London. I recall my dad telling me years ago that he took me to watch the local filming of a British Leyland advert around 1980, it was not this particular advert, but the houses do look very familiar to me, so they may have both been filmed around the same time.

Bloody hell Villain, don't you forget anything ?
Anyway, that was in 1973. It's 1981 now and I'm known to have the occasional glass of Oxo these days... while I'm on duty.

Here's a selection from 1988 I found on YT featuring a pre-Spender Jimmy Nail in a advert for Kodak along with many others.

That tutor looks vaguely familiar: a bit of self-promotion is it Tiger?
