jonab 1,644 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 Omo adds bright, bright, brightness! Maltesers - the chocolates with the less fattening centres. Murraymints, Murraymints, too good to hurry mints. You'll wonder where the yellow went when you brush your teeth with Pepsodent. Milky Way - the sweet you can eat between meals without spoiling your appetite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The later ones that are there weren't so good. They changed the product too. Tiffin. It's nuts and raisins, biscuits too, and creamy milk chocolate all the way through. Amazing Raisin: It's amazing what raisins can do What's the beer we all love best? Watneys keg red barrel Ticka ticka Timex R.Whites.

Willow wilson 894 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 From the cinema, (when I was paying attention): Farr's Farr's Farr's Farr's Farr's are the sausages you should buy. When you're dating a poppet; Payne's assorted poppets. Freda Hools, County Salon, Friar Lane Nottingham.

Stuart.C 491 Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 Russ Abbot was at Freddie Starrs funeral last year, not seen him on any T.V for a while. Last T.V seems to be Boomers in 2014 https://www.shropshirestar.com/news/uk-news/2019/05/10/russ-abbot-leads-tributes-to-comedian-freddie-starr/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,467 Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 Russ Abbott can still be seen on 'Drama' in the later episodes of Last of the Summer Wine (weekdays at 7.20pm). By that time the series was on its last legs, but he was one of the better things in it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
