The first Barclays one is pre-83 (the year the pound note was abolished). Cheers for these, kingligger. It's funny how they spark the old memory circuits into action!

That's "comedian" Roger Kitter, who brought out a record called 'Chalk Dust (The Umpire Strikes Back) under the name 'The Brat'. It made the charts, and he even did Top of the Pops. I'm very sorry that I know all of that, yes I am that much of a geek!

i have to say that even now when i watch these ads i still kind of believe them. i think they were more honest then and i kinda believed that that toothpaste would stop me getting fillings. now, i dont believe one advert that i see. older and cynical or just crap adverts now?
