"Shipham's paste has a family tradition That is why we're in such good condition. Coming clean and as fresh to your table As we came from the land and the sea. Eat as much wholesome food as you're able And enjoy Shipham's paste for your tea." The jingle was sung by a prawn or whatever creature represented the flavor of the paste. It was in the days before pate! Fishpaste sandwiches were quite a lunch staple back in the day.

I remember both, because I'm fairly ancient. Does anyone remember Texan bars? They had a series of comical cartoon ads where the hero - a masked cowboy a bit like the Lone Ranger - fell into peril but was saved by a chewy bar of whatever it was (I never ate one). Here's a long shot: one of the ads featured the rescue of a damsel in distress who had been tied up. I watched this, and even as a teenager, my mouth was hanging open in shock. Because she had the cleavage of a porn star and while I don't remember the dialogue now, it was definitely laden with innuendo. I think I only saw it once (it made a lasting impression) and I later wondered if it was pulled due to its < ahem > inappropriate nature.

Sung to the tune O Sole Mio, by a gondolier who swipes someone's Cornetto from a neighbouring boat as he's going past (punting?).

Jeez .... 5 minutes to advertise a bottle of pop. Whilst still saying absolutely nothing about the product! But, what was giving their performance its energy, its fizz? You don't push the product, you just show them that it is there, and that it has positive connotations, and you create a power group with well known names in it, and give it the name of the product. Obvious, really.

I remember it and yes, I am indeed very ancient. Was I the same toothpaste that gave you the "Ring of confidence?
