Retro Adverts

Post by **Hurghada Lady** » Fri Sep 04, 2009 4:14 pm

I have been trying to remember an advert from 70's or 80's for over two weeks now, I have searched on You Tube and the Internet but can't find it. I think but not 100% sure that it was either a cigar or alcohol advert, I have searched Hamlet but can't find it. All I can remember was the advert was very funny, it was a series of disasters, the very end of the advert was the man climbing to the top of a mountain stood on the very edge looking at the view and you saw a crack appear and the bit he is standing on breaks off and he falls. Can anyone remember it? I am sure Professor Horus will help me out here

I can't think HL although the words "Hamlet...everything else" seems to keep coming to me??

Saw the Milky Way ad again this morning, takes me back to being a kid

All together now; "The red car and the blue car had a race..."

I think it may well be the Hamlet advert, will see what I can come up with

LOL, that's a good one. The one I am on about is quite a long advert, and it's one disaster after the other.

HL, I have searched through about 60 plus Hamlet adverts and come up with nothing similar to your description, so I think we are on the wrong track, more information required

The reason I don't think it's Hamlet is because it is quite a long advert, all I can remember is everything he does goes wrong and I think when he is climbing the mountain he has his foot or leg in plaster from all the other disasters he has had. For some reason I kept thinking of Pils lager or Skol but couldn't find anything like it on the internet.
