A note from jwz about the Samsung wrist phone. Now all we need is for that to be combined with the new video phones (like Samsung's own offering) and we can all be in that advert that Peter Davidson and Sandra Dickinson did where his head appeared on her watch. That was years ago. As ever, marketing offering products that engineering can only produce after 20 years of technological development. I can't even remember what the advert was for.
And this is Wrist phones, written , and concerning Uncategorized

The advert was for saucepans with a life-long guarantee. Can't remember the manufacturer, but it was a British company
Correction
the advert above was for video tapes... with a skeleton... hence the re RECORD ... ;)

its a brilliant question to ask in a pub around 10 pm uk time,get all the pub drinkers and bar staff involved,ask the question-what was the product the advertisement was pushing? if no-one knows do the gesture the skeleton does ie bend down and mimic the video cassette going into the vcr.loads of fun for everyone.

I remember the ad, and indeed now I've got my camera phone I too am reminiscing about the Sandra Dickinson advert.
It definitely rings a bell about it being a saucepan ad, NOT an ad for Maxell tapes!
She actually says to him - "You can put the dinner on I'll be home in 20 minutes." in her slightly squeaky american voice.
He of course looks like a total goit.
Amazing the things people remember from their youths, must be at least 20 years ago that one.

The "You can put the dinner on, I'll be home in 20 mins" was for McCain Oven Chips!!
Not a clue! The power of advertising, eh? Not like that Scotch video tape one. Re-record, not fade away – re-record not fade away…...
