I like the old ads for Thompsons water seal. In essence, a burly builder sort with a Danny Dyer type menacing cockney attitude would walk on screen and basically threaten you if you didn't buy some. It frit me up so bad I was straight down B&Q to do as I was told.

That's him off Corrie, isn't it?

And here's another of Weatherfields finest:

This came out in 1999, to much controversy if I remember. Watching it now there are elements that are waaaay ahead of its time, although my favourite is still the young girl who says “conquered worralds”.

Any advert which contains a father spending time with his child, portrayed in a positive light. I do tire of the 'men are rubbish at looking after kids' thing.

Almost 20 years old and looks fresh.
Fashion hasn’t moved on much in 20 years compared to 60s and 70s.
