I always had a soft spot for this one:

Carling Black Label Plane Advert 80s
"Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end." 

Well, someone had to say it!

Feast your eyes on this little lot (especially the Fry's man and the Sun ad - particularly the bullet points they used against a page 3 context!)

TV adverts from 65/66

British TV Adverts From the 50s 60s 70s part 2

British TV Adverts From the 50s 60s 70s part 4
