Old Quinnsworth TV Ads

November 18th, 2008 Posted in Fun Stuff

One of the most ingenious bits of Irish marketing back in the eighties was Maurice Pratt, the Marketing Manager for Quinnsworth, deciding on a TV advertising strategy that included him starring in their TV ads, highlighting various in store offers. Some of these (for the time!) were quite ‘high tech’, and i’ve stumbled across one of the best of them via Youtube. Darth Vader also stars in this epic ad - and some outtakes are below too. Enjoy!

The outtakes - Maurice is getting narky!
