Best and worst TV ads"I'd like to give that dodo off the 5 Alive adverts a good kicking," says tom.joad. And luckily, there's tasty, tasty Cillit Bang to clean up the blood stains when you've finished. Tell us about TV adverts.

A chance to see if anyone else remembers this one....When listening to Block Buster by The Sweet at work the other day when I asked my colleagues if any of them remembered an advert for the Dustbuster by Black and Decker that rewrote some of the lyrics.
"The kids are out,
They're running about,
Grab a Dustbuster,
Wipe that mess out!
Did she hear someone say,
Clean it out the way,
With Dustbuster!"
Cue blank looks, vacant stares and a complete inability from anyone there to remember the ad in question. YouTube searches and lyric searches have proven fruitless and I am in fact scared that I made the whole thing up on the spot in some sort of idiot savant moment of advertising genius.
Can someone else please tell me they remember this ad, so I don't have to feel like I've gone mad / brilliant any longer?

Yeah I remember itOddly enough I saw the advert shortly before I first heard the song. It was one of those "Ohhh!!" moments.

YesI remember it. One of the most ridiculous pop song re-writes ever.
