The 90s. Back when ads made you actually want to buy a product. In 2024 it can be a mystery what the advert is for, or instead of wanting the product their own ad makes you want to boycott it - even if you already were buying it lol

Fun fact, Johnny English was based on those BarclayCard adverts Rowan Atkinson did between 91-97

I was a teenager in the 90s; this was a real reminiscence. It was really weird how some of these seemed super familar. Almost as if they were on TV about a year or two ago. Scary how quickly time flies! I still think of the Millenium as recent history...it's almost a quarter of a century ago!
The fact we still remember these shows you the power of good advertising and why companies spend so much on it. A real flash from the past. Cheers!

When adverts were better than the programmes. Jake Wood with super noodles 😂😂😂

We don’t get adverts like this anymore because there is no one place to watch them. We are all scattered over a digital universe that instead of raising quality has only served to hide it under unknown rocks we will never find.

The Tango advert is fabulously mad... ending in three harrier jump jets. Glorious.

That Tango advert was the real catalyst for brexit.

Excellent. Reminds me of the olden times when you knew what an advert was for & it made the product appealing.

I lived in England for 3 months in the fall of 1990. The English Civil War Weetabix commercial is hands down my all time favorite. “They had their Weetabix!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Everything was better in the 90's. Peak of western civilisation.

I'm 44 and live in Birmingham. I remember most of these.
Today's adverts just don't hit the spot like they used to!

Love the Boddingtons ad parodying the old Camay commercials. 👍🏻👍🏻

Noodles had me crying and the tango ad was very clever and technical. 👏👏👏
