My favorite ad as a kid in the UK was for Farrow's Canned Peas. The peas came tumbling down a slide and rushed through a grill presumably into the canning plant. The larger peas were stopped short by the grill and the voice over said " Sorry, mate you're too late the best peas went to Farrow's". Also remember this refrain "Murray mints, Murray mints - too good to hurry mints"
What do you remember?
