Work Advent Calendar 2017 Day 16: 1980s adverts





One of the people who allows us to keep the Twitter account overflowing with stuff and nonsense, Neil Miles (@neilsmiles, uploads a new batch of clips every Monday evening, introduced us to the wonderful and frightening world of Freddie Barrett), compiled this weekend's Work Advent Calendar entertainment in the form of a series of commercials marking the season, what you should be buying to mark it yourself and where to shop for it. Festive versions of established favourites, digitised or animated snowstorms, and a lot of perfume. Plus Cannon & Ball in panto in Bristol and an open invitation to a shopping centre in Bradford.

  1. Presumably after the sherry and lager run out you can start drinking the Brut 33 and Old Spice. That's Robert Powell doing the Old Spice voiceover, isn't it? Only just realised.
