1 Turkish delight, 2, maltesers, 7, elnet, 10, Hamlet's. Honesty can't remember any more. Have a good day and take care of yourself 😊 Bernadette xx

Hi TwasBrillig,

Ooooh, much harder today. I recall a few.

1. Fry's Turkish Delight, 2. Maltesers, 3). A banana, 4. ?, 5. Smarties, 6,7,8. ?, 9. Unigate milk and 10. Hamlet cigars.

Enjoying doing the quizzes but is this proof positive that advertising works? Why are all those jingles still filed away in a compartment of my brain? 🙃

Hi TwasBrillig, really enjoying these vintage Ad quizzes. I get a bit cross when I can't recall them all, but then have to ask myself whether it's really a cause for annoyance that I can't remember ad jingles. In fact it's more shocking that I can seem to remember so many! It shows the power of advertising and no wonder companies are willing to pay so much for prime advertising slots on TV. I haven't done as well as yesterday, but still, that's a lot of useless information my brain's got stored up!

1) Fry's Turkish delight. 2) Maltesers 3) A banana 4) ? 5) Smarties, 6) 7) 8) ? 9) Unigate milk 10 Hamlet.
