Marmites "you either love it or you hate it" slogans must be the most referenced phrases ever used from tv adverts, I'd imagine whoever came up with that in the marketing department was promoted up several levels through the company, specsavers "you should of gone to specsavers" is also another very successful one, kit kat's "have a break have a kit kat" is still used all these years later and Ronseals "does exactly what it says on the tin" also going strong.
always thought kfc's "finger lickin' good" was terrible even though they still persist with it, have you ever heard anyone actually say finger licking good?

Aaah Bisto.
Because the lady loves Milk Tray.

Also like that Mcdonalds one with the whistling at the end.

I think Ronseal and Gold Blend would compete with Carlsberg TM. Both saw huge increases in sales after their respective campaigns.
but Carlsberg probably the most successful

Nick Mordin used to write advertising slogans and copy before became involved in racing.
What was the other one ''A pint and half of milk in a block of chocolate?''
A heard a woman on the telly say she gave her kids as much chocolate as they can eat, to ensure they get enough milk on the strength of that advertisement.
And that's true.

Yes indeed Aspro, Cresta fizzy pop with the polar bear. Strawberry, orange and pineapple flavours, I used to drink loads of it when I was a kid!
I always thought that Barbara Windsor should have kept some pet birds in at least one Carry On film, just so Sid James ask her whether she used Trill.
"Why's that, Sid?"

It looks good , it tastes good and by golly , it does you good 
'The goodness is in the thickness'...said by a Scottish lady in the floor cleaner advert. I think it was Flash?
Anyway, most women would agree with the sentiment maybe for other reasons?

Honey nut loops! We're loopy together.
Both of these are perhaps memorable only unto me but I recall them from pre-1993 (I know from where I was living) so they did the job of being memorable.

Ho ho ho Greeeen Giant. - Sweetcorn I believe.
You know when you've been tangoed - I recall this advert being banned. It involved someone being slapped with a hand on each cheek, the kids copied it and some recipients got damaged hearing as a result. My brother used to do it to me with wet hands and I hated it.

Bizarrely, I have binged on 'Mad Men' in the past month or two.
I watched the 92nd and last episode last night with the hint,
that the legendary Don Draper, created the most famous advert in history:

Slightly off topic but the Trill slogan "Trill makes budgies bounce with health" as well as the Opal Fruits slogan "Opal Fruits, made to make your mouth water" were created by Motor Sport commentator Murray Walker (the company he worked for also created the Mars a day... slogan).

Oops sorry Tommy didn't see the link just read the first line.
The "Bodyform" one was so stuck in my bro' in law's head that he was singing it without realising, in the office,
until someone asked him why he was singing it!
Maybe that's what the advertisers wanted!
