Put a Tiger in your tank.... The jingle.....the Esso sign means happy motoring.... The original Katie off the oxo ads (not Linda Bellingham, she came later).....and Katie making all these things with mince and oxo...as well as drinking it... I remember the Pepsodent addie too...and the Smash one with the little tin spacemen... Later on the one with the boxer using Brut and saying 'Splash it on'....

You'll wonder where the yellow went when you brush your teeth with Pepsodent. Also the T.V times advert where the cartoon family are going along on the car all shouting out different times they think programmes are on and one kid shouts 'Quick Dad it's on now' Also the American Daz adverts...very boring. and the Osram light bulb one where two light bulbs as cartoon people and one is dependable and one is flashy and he 'pops' Linda
