PART 1: youtu.be/qrmM8FkXcJE

(Caution: Light, very strange misogyny going on in the Sky Sports ad from 01:47 to 02:37. I'm not even sure how best to define it beyond the odd moment of silent oggling, hence not putting a warning on the upload itself, but viewer discretion advised anyhoo.)

Wow gee, only took me half a year to get to this, eh? Well here we are, the continuation of the ad breaks from the network TV premiere of "Elizabeth" (1998) on Channel 4. I've already covered what's the deal with these in Part 1 but I'm glad to get this out of the way as even though there's at least one regrettable ad, there's a bunch that're actually quite iconic here and worth preserving. Enjoy!
