    What's your favourite TV commercial?

    Last night I got thinking about how I thought that most modern ads are rubbish, and that the ones I remembered from my youth seemed MUCH better. So I went on a nostalgia trip to youtube to find some oldies. Here's one of my all-time favourites (which coincidentally happens to be for my favourite beer)...

    Not checked the link out yet. It's not the Hoffmiester bear by any chance is it?

    If it's your fave beer I'm guessing not. That leaves the Rutger Haur Guinness commercials. Damn they were good!

    ".....tell me what your thinking"

    "what can swim faster, an 'orse or a dog?"

    Think its for WKD - very funny, and also poses a good question. I think that a horse would be faster in water than a dog. I mean, if they were to have a race over 100m, the horse is at an advantage because it has such a long head.

    Any bloke that answers such a question with a romantic answer is a Big Fat Billy Liar.

    Lady Skoggmeiger gave me "that look" when she first saw this advert. I knew she was thinking I'd have given a similar reponse.

    Check out http://www.absolutelyandy.com/tvadverts/ lots of old ads on there!

    I liked the whole series of heinaken ads that ran about 5 or 6 years ago before they stopped making cold filtered, they were brilliant ads! Particulalry fond of the dustbin men one, and the one with the hole in the road if anyone else remembers them!

    The spoof Citroen one where the old 2CV does the 'Transformers' style dance thing like on the proper C4 advert, but when it folds back into being a car and lands, it smashes into bits on the floor.
