What's your all time favourite advert? My personal favourite was the coal fire advert years ago with the cat, dog and mouse and the music Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow in the background. Each animal came in and gave the other a kiss.
:o) Will try and find it!

Also I musn't forget the Smash men - first they peel them with their metal knives, then they boil them for twenty of their minutes, then they smash them all to bits. Cue Smash men rolling around with laughter.

I really love that new PG Tips advert with Monkey and Al (Johnny Vegas). Think it's fab and has me crying with laughter everytime I see it, especially when his little legs are swaying at the end with China in your Hand playing. Genius!

My favourite also involves a polar bear, but it's not for Coca-Cola. It was a very simple animated advert for Unison, the public service union.. A tiny ant is carrying a leaf when he finds his way blocked by a dozy looking polar bear. "Excuse me! Excuse me!" he squeaks in a tiny voice. Polar bear takes no notice, so ant goes back the way he came in.
Ant then returns with a friend. "Excuse me! Excuse me!" they squeak. Polar bear looks around him but can't see where the noise is coming from, so goes back to his chewing. Ants walk off again.
Hundreds of ants then march on to the screen. In....you guessed it, UNISON (ho ho)...they yell "GET OUT OF THE WAY!!" causing polar bear to head for the horizon, leaving the way clear for the ants. Loses something just explaining it here, but it had me giggling like a loon every time I saw it.

My all time favourite is the rolos advert from a couple years back. A little kid torments a baby elephant with a pack of rolos. Years later, the circus parade is in town. Said elephant is all grown up now and who should he spot but the little kid, now in his 30s. The elephant walks on by but not before he's smacks the rolo kid with his trunk....
The Fiat ad from the early 80s (Designed by computers, built by robots) with the aria Largo al factotum (Barber of Seville) played over the top.
Mercilessly parodied by the Not the Nine O'Clock News team where they showed a bit of the ad followed by a pile-up and added the tagline ..."and driven by Italians"
