Adverts that were shown during the broadcast of the film Police Academy 3: Back in Training from February 7th 1993. I know the date because the end ads that followed the film advertise for Poirot, which helps identify the date. There are a few famous faces, including Rutger Hauer (Guinness), Danny Baker (though not for Daz), Nick Hancock (Of They Think It's All Over fame), Duncan Duff (from kids series Big Kids) and Porridge's 'Orrible Ives (or Kenneth J Jones, to give him his proper name). There are 2 ad breaks, plus the end adverts that followed the film, so 3 in all. They are as follows:
1st break: Natwest bank (Workers travelling to insert cash machines); Weetos cereal (Magic tricks offer); Tango drink (Napolean at bus stop); News of the World newspaper (Mole offers caravan deal); Guinness beer (Rutger Hauer - Time); PG Tips Chimps (Granules); Polo mint (£100 offer); and Swinton Insurance (Kenneth J Jones - Angry man in telephone box).
2nd break: Vauxhall Corsa car (The New Supermodel); Sure deodorant (Women boxers); Stella Artois beer (Delivery of beer in the rain); The Mail on Sunday newspaper (Alan Clark diaries); Castrol petrol oil; Skittles; Flymo Garden Vac; and Vauxhall Corsa (Movie Set).
3rd break (after film): TV ads for Star Trek 4 and You've Been Framed, then Bisto gravy (Train through Russia); Sky TV; Mars bar (Danny Baker - free bar offer); Pickford's Travel (escapologist); Daily Mirror newspaper (Train offer & Prince & Princess of Wales divorce); Right Guard deodorant (Duncan Duff & Nick Hancock - Frustrating day); Nestle's Clusters cereal (Squirrels steal cereal with phone ruse); Marmite; then TV ad for Wish You Were Here? and Poirot (the episode in question being The Case of the Missing Will).
