The Clio adverts started with a pastiche of How To Steal A Million, and ended seven years later with Nicole leaving Vic Reeves at the altar to run away with Bob Mortimer.

A couple had perfectly acceptable alternative  answers, ie Alice Cooper. As all artists had 70s or 80s number ones, answers like Moby were less so.

Hopefully squares, as I know how dastardly yours are of course, lol WinkHappy. Mind you, I could probably do with a few early nights, easy to get into the habit of burning the candle late when not going into the office every day. But certainly much easier to set them than solve them (well, most times; the brain even fails there a lot too!), so with current form maybe I should just stick to that.

I do remember the lovely Nicole from the early days (Happy), so I guess the Vic ones must have come a bit later. I also got rid of terrestrial tv altogether a few years back.
