Someone normally comes up with a class one that sticks with us and the advertising team did a good job. Still remember some from 40 years ago (secret lemonade drinker...lol)

Macdonalds advert good but Santander doing some good ones

Any working and sticking in your head?

Nothing compares to Go Comperrrrrre and Compeere the Meerkat dot com. Just outstanding!

Second best is a Money Supermarket's oddity.

Lynx ads were also very good, God knows where they've gone, now.

I can still remember the song from an advert for the new Honda i-TDCI engines from around 10 years ago.

That and the old Dime bar advert about Armadillos, that's another one that sticks in my mind.

No bank or financial institution will get my vote no matter how good their advert.Totally misleading the public about how wonderfully nice & fluffy they are with your best interests at heart.I am surprised OFCOM haven't banned some of them.

Opal Fruits - Made to make your mouth water
Flake - The crumbliest, flakiest milk chocolate in the world
Topic - What has a hazelnut in every bite?
Lucozade - with Daley Thompson

One that sticks in my head today, Moneysupermarket with dancing Skeletor and He-Man and eighties backing track, very clever as it is something that as an eighties kid can relate to and now as the demographic of prudent spenders.

For me the dambusters carling black label black advert was a classic.

+1 the VW Golf squeaky earring advert - very clever.

Currently I think the Samsung VR advert with the emu is very effective

Shepherd Neame are a local brewery so may not have gone national with their Spitfire Ale.

Downed all over Kent.Just like the Luftwaffe.

Always made me laugh.
