The Jimquisition brought me here.

The English language has evolved a tad since the 80's. I sing this now and people raise an eyebrow. It doesn't stop me.

Jim sterling sent me here.

Remember this advert always being on when my mum was rushing around getting us ready for primary school.... Very applicable!

My all time favourite advert, I used to love the feet killing me bit.

Just shows the makers of the ad had it spot on front the start if people are still remembering the jingle 35 plus years on.

Thanks Jim Stephanie Sterling

Not from the UK but this commercial used to play on the stations we picked up via satellite. Never knew what they were singing/selling but I remember the "I could do with a D" which I always thought was T. Thanks for posting

I have been look for these ads for years.

I sing this jingle daily...love it !!

I could do with an E, going raving later ;-)

one of the best ads out there

I love this fucking advert

I still remember all the word to this great And Boycie as her boss. I knew their was a newer version.

Even now I say "I could do with a D" haha 😀

Omfg this is stuck in my head!!!! I love it tho it's the best advert in the world

This tune just came to my head.. had to find it… 😊

Bring back more old adverts.

0:17 Casual workplace sexual harassment. The 80s: a simpler time.

Beautiful singing, great lyrics and pretty lady characters what a pleasant memory (i dont drink tea though)

I bet she could

Not so much an advert for tea, as a PSA for why not to have children.

I still sing this annoying song to annoy my gf. I just found this vid so I can show her the original. Interesting to see that sexual harassment in the workplace was used as a humour back then.

I wish we had better quality versions of both of these.

I think the woman in the first ad is Sally Jane Jackson.

Thats the last time he touches my knee? Appalling!

I think the hot woman in the second advert was in brookside?

Did this woman sing count duckula theme tune too? Either way, needing a D has sure changed its meaning

Does anyone know the singer? Lord she is good

What year was the first advert, please???

WHO SAMNG THISD

The one from 93 has better sound

🤣 the comments here not realising what the slang means nowadays

Both of theses adds would not be allowed nowadays, the first add was set in the 80's with the faux pas on the sexual harassment, this just wouldn't be accepted theses days, in the second add probability early 90's was strongly stereotyping the roll of the woman in a married relationship, i.e lokking agter the kiddies, doing the shopping and rushing home to cook her husbands tea, whilst he works to support his family. Though there is nothing wrong with this in a general sense but there is more diversity now with alot of woman been the main wage earner also long gone are the days where in most cases one wage is nowhere near enough to support at household.

These ads don't embrace _diversity!_ 😡
