I used love two adverts for the same product – Insignia
The first one (http://bit.ly/2JSlF) because of the catchy music
The second (http://bit.ly/2nHv8U) because I wanted a shower like this in my home
Other faves include
Axe Jet: http://bit.ly/16ZQnU
Bombing: http://bit.ly/40iwSV
Holidays Are Coming: http://bit.ly/1amaWj

spose whilst there’s a beer theme going on here seems rude not to include a Guinness ad:

http://webtoastie.co.ukMan, I used to be hooked on Opal Fruits, absolutely loved them. The Smash advert is my favourite from that list, but I really like the quite recent Honda ads with the ridiculously long songs in them.

http://www.bad-ads.co.ukSome good choices there, Dave. I am surprised that even after all this time I can remember the sound tracks to these adverts even before I watched them again. Especially the Wheatabix advert. If you know what good for you, okay! Wheatabix as skinheads. Ah, the power of advertising. It’s like a virus.

http://copysnips.comFor me, it’s got to be Hamlet. Funny, and also with the memorable tune which I’m betting many people still associate with the Hamlet brand, even though they’ve been banned from TV for a while now.

http://www.jobs.spotlightideas.co.ukGood list. Would, also, include The Lego Kipper ad from the 70´s (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2nL5sSSvd0) and, also, the Heineken ad with the posh girl trying to learn cockey (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4VFqbroi1I)

And the worst right now surely has to be the pathetic Fosters ads? Once upon a time they were intelligent and funny, now they are just awful. I imagine too many meetings and too many cooks created these particular 3 humped camels.
