These are the adverts that appeared during the broadcast of the film Hotel Paradiso in 1986. There are a couple of famous faces, including Richard Marner (Allo Allo), Ken Stott (The Vice) and Rebecca Saire in a Mail on Sunday Sleeping Beauty ad. There are three ad breaks in all and contain a few famous ones, including the Hamlet cigars, Hoffmeister bear and "Sid" adverts by British Gas. And I've a feeling someone in authority will take The Mail on Sunday advert with Rip Van Winkle seriously one day (you'll know when you see it). The ads are as follows:
1st break: Amstrad stereo systems (Can't beat the System robot); The Mail on Sunday newspaper (Rip Van Winkle); Rank Xerox Documenter computer (Faceless Business); Le Piat Dor wine (English interrupt French picnic), and The Class of Nuke 'Em High film advert.
2nd break: Clairol wavelength curlers (Girls in dull bar); Hitachi Opus 1 music system; British Gas (If You See Sid Tell Him - Rock climber meets Old Girl); Cockburn's Port drink (Richard Marner, Robin Bailey - U Boat captain has English dinner); Hamlet cigars (Ken Stott - Andrex Puppy spoof); Debenhams/ Estee Lauder "Beautiful" perfume (Bride) and Class of Nuke 'Em High film ad.
3rd break: Amstrad 6128 computer (Spilt computer users); Durabeam work torch; Hoffmeister beer (Star Gazer); Rank Xerox Documenter computer; Electric Cookers (Woman sees cooker in home for 1st time); The Mail on Sunday's You magazine (Rebecca Saire - Sleeping Beauty); Soda Stream fizzy water (Father & Son demonstration).

(The playlist of all the old adverts can be found here: https://www.dailymotion.com/playlist/x7zrg2. Anyone is welcome to upload my advert videos elsewhere if they wish, as they are here for people to enjoy and they are also rare as not many people think about preserving the adverts).
