JINGLES

Which can you remember from the 50s/60s/70s, that had a punch-line?

For instance:

You’ll wonder where the yellow went
…………………………………………………….

Just a bit of fun.

The only way to see what’s coming on ITV is go and get the TV Times.

Bum bum bum bum Esso Blue...

Nothings a nice as a Penningtons twicer

Murry mints Murry mints, the, too good to hurry mints

Summer county Summer County Hu Hu hu,,,,

You'll never put a better bit of butter on your knife, ( can't remember which Butter)

Was it Country Life Tom.

That was said in a West Country accent

Mollie

“You’ll wonder where the yellow went when you brush your teeth with Pepsodent”

"Cheers up chops, or chicken on Tuesday, puts a fresh face on fish on Friday. Batchelor's Savoury Rice£!

Give 'em Heinz Beans and Baconburgers, "Can I have more of them, please"?

"Pea-nuuuuuuuuuts!" - they're jungle fresh!! (can I say "jungle" without being racist?)

Everyone's a Fruit and Nut case. Craaaaazy for those Cadburys Nuts and Raaaaaaisins !

Was it Country Life Tom.

I'm not sure Momac ?

will it be chips or jacket spuds
will it be mash or fried onion rings
Will it be cabbage or will it be peas
We'll have to wait and see

We hope its chips is chips, yeas we hope its chips,


What will you get with your Grill steaks

A million house wives every day
Open a tin of beans and say.

Beanz means Heinz

Thanks Tommy for finishing off my jingle!

Some other good ones there, Tom. How about this one:

Jellipex, makes
..............................

I don't know that one Mollie but, A big favourite of mine were the Smash potato martians,
First they peel them with their little knives
then they bash them up with one of these,

then they all laugh and their heads wobble,,

Okay Tom, I'll save that one for now and see if anyone else can remember it.

Yes, I liked the Martians one as well. There were some good jingles back then, and funny ones.

The PG tips tea chimps did some belters and the one I liked best was the plumber one
pass the monkey wrench

"McVities bake a beeeeetter biscuit ...... beeeetter biscuit"!

yea but, Who made Exceeding well cakes ?

A Yicker was asked, What do you think of Kipling ? He said

" I dunno, I've never Kipled "

"R whites" a secret lemonade drinker

"What we want is Watneys Red Barrel
It's our favourite beer"

Orangieboom orangieboom its a lager not a tune,,

Not sure if these technically qualify as 'punchlines' but here goes . . .
The Cresta Bear - "It's frothy man . . ."
Colt 45 Malt Liquor - "Works every time"
Yellow Pages - "Let your fingers to the walking"
Heineken - "Refreshes the parts other beers cannot reach"
Interflora - "Say it with flowers"
Esso - "Put a tiger in your tank"
Rice Krispies - "Snap, Crackle, Pop"

One for the RAF men,
A little bit of Brylcreem on your hair
Gives you the Brylcreem Bounce,

I recognise a few of these despite them being before my time :)

Pendletons twicer Tom

One thousand and one cleans a big big carpet for less than half a crown.

Nuts, whole hazel nuts. Cadburys take 'em and they cover them in chocolate!

Some really good ones there.

Timl, they're great as well with the punchlines!

Can anyone finish this one off:

You'll feel a little lovelier each day
...........................................

With fabulous pink Camay

Yes, retep. Well remembered.

"Don't forget the fruit gums mum"

Hoover beats, as it sweeps

Holly:

Retep:
"Looks good, tastes good and by golly it does you good."

Mackeson!

another good un was that old bloke with a bald head who went to work on an egg but, it had to be a British egg and explained how you can tell its a British egg, by the lion stamped on it and further explained that it was because, he'd eaten so many his head was now becoming the same shape,

Go to work on an Egg,

Well, it looks like nobody remembers me Jellipex advert. Not surprising really as it was a short-lived paint in the 60s that boasted no drips, no runs, and I can find no trace of it on't internet. It was:

Jellipex
Makes good painting easy.

Keep 'em coming folks.

What about the now banned adverts because they were deceiving like.

eat a Mars a day, it helps you work rest and play,,

and PAL dog food helps, prolong active play,

Smoke consulate cigarettes, cool as a mountain stream

What about this one for a liar, liar, pants on fire.

Domestos
Kills all known germs, dead

All known germs? Kills 'em dead? They can't kill 'em alive, can they.

mollie m,the one about Mackeson was a question on The Chase a couple or weeks ago that’s what reminded me.

Tom many years ago the advertising agency said all adverts had to be truthful. That's why PAL was banned because the producers could not prove in prolonged an active life for dogs. Yet today we still have adverts which don't tell the truth in RED BULL gives you Wiings

They changed that domestos one as well, It now only kills 99% of household germs so. If its out side its a better chance of living to infect another day,

Help mollie m
All the dirt, all the grit
Hoover gets it every bit
For it beats as it sweeps as it cleans. ...........
Is going round and round in my head. How do I stop it?

You can't, just suck it up.

Good one peebee

"McKellar Watt's for Meatiness!"!
