I used to really like the one where a man is with his partner when they see her friend who wears glasses. While the two women are elsewhere, the man steals some of the bespectacled woman's chocolate Hobnobs then mocks her by putting one of the biscuits over each eye while mimicking her voice. When he takes them off, he sees they've both come in and are staring at him and he looks really embarrassed! That always used to amuse me!
I loved the song in this (really old, 1989!) ad so much that I called a local radio station one night to ask if they knew what it was and if so, could they play it. Another listener called in to say that he was a local DJ and that he had two copies of the song, and would I like one? Long story short, we were put in touch with each other and it turned out that he lived quite close to me. Less than 24 hours later, he dropped off the 7in single to my door. I still have it! Enjoy...
A Kingsmill Bread advert from 15ish years ago.
I moved hundreds of miles from home in my early 20’s for work and there was a lovely older man who was like a father figure to me - his children were ages with me and his family used to have me round for Sunday dinner. Him and his lovely wife were Irish and they used to always say “you’re lovely to me, you are” when I turned up with a small gift on a Sunday. They both sadly passed away in 2005.
A couple of years later a Kingsmill advert came on tv and I burst into tears. The song was by Lucky Jim and called ‘You’re lovely to me’. I still always hear the song in my head when I see Kingsmill bread and I remember them with such fondness.

Lloyds, filmed on my most favourite beach where we have a little family home. Every time I hear the music my heart feels warm,
This was just one of the most insanely catchy advert jingles ever!
Hes Britain's greatest asset!
I'm in Caffe Nero and they have literally just played that bit of jazz music they used to use in this advert.
