My dad picks his nose- it goes to Snottee’s! Agree about the bottle size. I don’t buy Cottee’s anymore. They used to instruct you to mix it as one part cordial/nine parts water. Then a couple of years ago I noticed they’d changed it to 7/1 but were charging the same, so now I avoid it on principle. They couldn’t realistically make the bottle smaller, so they just decided to put less product into it and top it off with water. Never would have happened back when my dad picked the fruit that went to Cottee’s.

Got me with Robbo on the thumbnail

A lot of the store owners were insane back then too. It became quite apparent in their ads when they'd shout their prices!

I was only talking about this last week and especially the Imperial leather advert, advertisers used to use the impression of wealth and prestige as an incentive to buy their products but now our society detests that vision in advertising. Maybe wealth was once seen as potentially an achievable goal but is now perceived as unachievable. Fantasy/naivety vs stark reality perhaps or maybe is just the different perceptions from childhood to adult.

In the Imperial Leather one, they weren't meant to be people everyone would relate/aspire to, it was a satire of "luxury". Does comedy have to be explained nowadays?

I never thought of Stuart Wagstaff as Upper Class. He was a popular TV show host (because he was likeable), as well as being in the Rocky Horror Picture Show

Today I learned that I write the letter B differently to Victorians. QLD B IS BEST

Maybe having the working class switch from admiring others to resenting them is why you can't find a working pie warmer at BP

I found it funny that you played a clip from the Hitchhikers Guide mini series at the end because for a moment I thought the rich guy in the BP ad was Arthur Dent

Based. I wish they brought it back.

I thought Clive Robertson on tv was glorious

Only Indians working in BPs now

I used to use Cusson's Imperial Lather!! lmao, who woulda guessed

Stuart Wagstaff was a beloved member of the JCW tep and early Australian (satirical) comedy. There are layers going on in that BP ad.

Getting Mark Humphries for the HMS Pinafore joke at 1:27 is elite work, great stuff Dave

I used to love that Cussons soap ad. So opulent! 🤣

Your 'rich elite' from the first ad was a regular on Blankety Blanks - Stuart Wagstaff! A living embodiment of the old-school British toff theatre kid. (And yes, also subscribed.)

I have to say, I did like TV and Radio in the days, not so long ago, when people spoke correctly. These days any bogan can be in media.

I still haven't forgiven BP not honouring their promise of a Petrol Station on Wheels!

Fantastic! 😂 Subscribed 👍

Mum always bought Cusson's Imperial Leather. Hell, it even sounded posh. Living in the worst part of town be damned, that soap made us think we were fancy as 😆

I didn't realise that Hitchiker's Guide was just a documentary explaining the downfall of Ansett!

He kinda looks like Broden and Bajo from Good Game's love child.

WELCOME TO GULLOW has entered my lexicon now

haha gold. The Go-Lo guy is actually Mike Goldman's brother Jay, he used to work at River949 in the 2000's.

I love the 15 second version soooo very much :D Welcome to Guh-Lo

I miss Go-Lo

I love this channel!

Bwahahahha Scotty at Maccas hahahha yep lifetime ban.

As one of your Patrons, seeing my name being accompanied by a Pete Smith V/O could very well be my greatest accomplishment (and I was on The 1% Club)

COMTEK 3.

What's that Skipp, Ken James is poking some nutmeat into Clancy and you think we'll need the Preen before Park Ranger Hammond from returns fromthe Sanitarium factory shop? Tchk tchk tchk

😄

There was one big product placement opportunity Sanitarium missed, when the show was about to end the host should’ve said “Well that’s our show for today. I guess I better up n ‘go” then proceed to put a straw in an up n’ go container and start drinking!

21:58 Surprised they kept that take

Before Mike Hammond hosted Gladiators and became the voice of Foxtel

I dig that 1987 Fall Line Sarajevo sweater!

Glad to see someone preserving this piece of history! These ads inspired all types from all different walks of life to give comedy a go with the gag "(insert slightly funny: item, action, person) Two Dollars! (index finger and middle finger protruding like the V for victory moving up and down)"

1:18 you will forever be channelling Clive Hale who is mostly pretending this is a real news bulletin while wearing black tie formal wear - I'm sure it's just a blatant coincidence that you're both celebrating the "50th" ua-cam.com/video/IhMiEde6jnY/v-deo.html

Didn't realise there was a change to "new" cursive, but explains where those b's came from!

That bonus Sanitarium clip at the end I gotta say is hilarious. First time I’ve ever seen David M. Green turn red!

Another great episode David. Thanks 🙏

Can say as someone who works with preschoolers, they do recognise capital letters before the lowercase. Still very much the case today!

i got given Miami Vice...on Beta!.. for xmas when i was a kid.... i never once watched it!

I'm so glad that after going to all the trouble to get Pete Smith to do that voice over for you, that you got a "Pete Smith Speaking" at the end. I like to think you insisted that was there, because you know your audience would have started an uprising if it was missing. Alex Garner speaking.

Schwarryynn Laaah-ger smoouyyyvvve!!!!

Scott Morrisson is only banned from the McDonald's at Terminal 1 (International Terminal) of Sydney Airport since it is duty free.

"Nut meat" went from a term I had never heard in my life to one that I never want to hear again real quick.

None of the women in the Fosters ad were drinking the product. I guess women didn’t drink beer in the 80s.

20:56 Bond appears twice on screen in the Swan Lager commercial.
