It's nearing Christmas time, so I'm going to post a few of these. :D You're welcome!
This is from the first showing of the strange but highly amusing, one-off TV comedy, "The Flint Street Nativity".
CONTENTS!:
1) "Sponsered by Panasonic" promotional sting / "Who put Jesus in with the iguana?"
2) "End of Act I" / "Sponsered by Panasonic" promotional sting / Anglia ID sting
3) Murphy's ad (My absolute favourite one during this campaign, as childish at it is)
4) Sainsbury's TV ad (I get the purest kind of nostalgia while watching these "OMG, WE'RE GOING TO BE IN A NEW MILLENIUM SOON" kind of ads, I really do.)
5) Wrigley's Orbit Sugar-Free Gum ad
6) TV ad for "Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer" (Oh gosh, I remember having this. I have no idea if I still do have this actually but if I do, just out of pure, potentially terrible curiosity, I want to check this out again. This was a weird, obscure little peice of 90's Christmas memorabilia, for sure.)
7) Lakeside Shopping Centre ad
8) Sony Vega ad
9) Rennie Duo ad
10) Orange ad (Ouch!)
11) Wrigley's Orbit Sugar-Free Gum ad ("IAAEEEEEEEEAAAAAM NOT A DENTEEEEEST...BUT AFTER EATING ICHEWORBITSUGARFREEGUM!" Freaking amazing.)
12) ITV News update
a) 747 Cargo jet bursts into flames after taking off from Stansted Airport
b) Neil Hamilton gets his first interview concerning Mohammed Al Fayed (thank Wikipedia over me putting in his name right)
13) "Sponsored by Panasonic" promotional sting / "Act 2" / "Is there any room at the inn?".../ "End of Act 2" / "Sponsored by Panasonic" promotional sting / Anglia ID sting
14) Foster's ad
15) Scottish Power ad
16) Olay / Oil of Olay ad ("Softer, smoother skin...isn't that what every Mum wants for Christmas?" Well, mine would be happy with that and a Neil Diamond CD, frankly so not entirely accurate.)
17) De Beers ad (I always thought that was the weirdest name for a jewelry brand ever, but hey ho.)
18) Benylin ad (I love the build-up in this ad for some reason.)
19) Iceland ad (Before they went REALLY weird with their Christmas stock!)
20) BT ad
21) "Sponsored by Panasonic" promotional sting / Best. Conclusion. Ever. / "...he's in trouble now, Des!" / "End of Act 3" / "Sponsored by Panasonic" promotional sting / Anglia ID sting
22) Scottish Power ad
23) One 2 One ad (This ad really makes me miss this campaign, this is really charming and a great Christmas ad altogether)
24) McDonalds ad
25) Anchor Squirt Cream ad (A real Christmas classic, where Christmas ads are concerned. Glad I have this one covered. You're welcome!)
26) Monster.co.uk ad
27) "Don't Drink and Drive" Public Information Film (A genuinely disturbing, almost Nine Inch Nails music video-esque PiF about why you shouldn't drink and drive. In the middle of a funny Christmas special. Welcome to England, folks.)
28) National Lottery Big Draw 2000 ad
29) Iceland ad (Charming. And a lovely use of a great Madness song as well.)
30) Scottish Power ad (Oh what a shame, these three aren't allow to be creepers through the windows any--actually no, I don't feel sorry at all. Yay!)
31) "Sponsered by Panasonic" promotional sting / "Act 4" / Wow. / End of "The Flint Street Nativity" w/ announcement about "Bethlehem: Year Zero" / "Sponsored by Panasonic" promotional sting / "An Antenna / Yorkshire Television Production" Title Card
