Good idea for a thread Vienna... one of my all time favourites is this classic 'Milk Tray' ad, I've got a CD in the car with various TV themes / stock library tracks and this is on it, I play it in the car occasionally (!)...
Caption says it's from the '80s for some reason which is wrong!The guy in the advert is an Australian actor who was also in Gerry Anderson's 'UFO' and at one time was considered for the James Bond role when Sean Connery quit after 'You Only Live Twice'. In the end fellow Aussie George Lazenby got the job.

I remember all of these which shows just how good they were. There must be thousands of adverts that virtually nobody can remember and then there are the classic ads that that nearly everyone CAN remember. Hamlet cigars made a couple of good ones Steed

I thought I'd post this classic advert, mainly because they asked me to do it :-
