UK adverts from the 90s that I've only ever seen once and wonder if I've actually just imagined them:
* The white-faced mime artist walking as if on a tightrope, contorting his mouth into a V-shape, with a contrived voiceover talking about how you'd be pleased with some deal or other. What gets me is how the ad agency thought a close up of a clown smiling was a good idea.
* The frantic Japanese washing powder commercial, involving throwing a bucket of mud over a model and watching her cry before shouting about how great the washing powder is. It's all done in Japanese and you don't really know what's going on. Was it a real commercial from Japan or done in UK?
* The ad for apple juice showing a model smiling rapturously as a shower of golden juice pours over her face. Idiots.
I'm sure I didn't imagine them, honest.

Yes!
There was the one with a semi-naked fat man on a bungy cord grabbing at a bunch of roses each time he bounced.
