For some reason this one came to mind this morning - the bloke on the bike at the end makes me laugh every time

I've seen plenty of screamingly funny adverts in South Africa, but you have to be South African to get the full effect. I don't watch TV much, but I think the Fosters adverts are quite good. This video has them all except for the newer one with Holly Valance in it.



Edit: added the Holly Valance one, I think it's the best of them all.

Use the normal www.youtube.com address, not the short www.youtu.be ones. Maybe the addon needs an update to recognise the new style addresses?

How sad is this to actually like an advert for kitchens !  

This is great (IMHO !!) :

I suppose this version is the full length version using the original  JONA LEWIE track. The actual IKEA adverts on TV are just shorter samples of it.

I was still at school when the original song came out and still think its great.

I've always liked that one where the Japanese girlie gets caught accidentally photocopying her arse whilst trying to get that chocloate snack that's mysteriously been placed on a high shelf......

Can't think why.......   :)

Bought some Yeo Valley yoghurt and then remembered about one of their adverts and this thread. Definitely one of those you remember and can smile at each time. This is the long version, it's brilliant :thumb:
