When did they stop showing the Softmints ad? Cos the date on it is 1987 (year I was born) but I definitely remember that ad.

Some ads run for years.

Coco Pops (I'd rather have a bowl of)
and
Kit Kat (You can't sing, you can't play, you look awful). That bloke became Terry in Eastenders, father of Simon and Tiffany.

both made in 1981,

ran until at least 1990.

here, remember that Orange juice mixed with milk stuff?
Mother of jesus that was some skanky tasting shite.

Milk mixed with orange juice.
What Ivy Leaguer came up with that one?

There is no part of it that wasn't guaranteed to make you puke, the concept, the smell, the appearance... jesus, the taste. Jeeesus.

The taste.



The horror... the horror...

Ah I'd forgotten all about that ad. Yet as I was watching it I knew all the words, even down to the annoying way that girl said "magic shoes" I had a pair of those, but mine were grey patent.
