I wish they all could be Caledonian Girls...

The Carling Black Label series were also very good.

'Boney' and the 're-record not fade away' Scotch videotape adverts.

Not that they were any good, they're just so 80s

Agreed - super adverts

I particularly like the first one as I just know that in a couple of years, they won't be able to show a man fighting a dog in case it encourages the public to do the same...

Brilliant! The one where he sends his mum off to the old folks home to make way for a snooker table and because the kids are scared of her moustache is also a classic.

And who could forget 'top bombing'?

"Shut it!" That was ace There was anbother one which was supposed to be The Professionals.

I liked the "Fry's Turkish Delight... Full of eastern promise." one and the ones that went "Ariston, and on, and on"

On a motoring theme, how about these for naff ones:

www.webappuk.com/IMG/leyland_cars.ram
www.webappuk.com/IMG/kwikfit1986.ram

And let's not forget the Vauxhall Cavalier. It's arguably the most impressive car of the 80s!

Who can forget the Cadburys Flake Ads.

My vote goes to the Carling Black Label Dambusters spoof.

I must admit I laughed out loud with the new advert for Beef Tonight. Love that the Panda from Chicken tonight has now moved into the house and is moving in on the wife.

Doesn't make me want to buy the product but a funny ad nevertheless.
