Sorry John, but I prefer the current Virgin Atlantic tele advert.

Those Trolly-Dolly's in their red uniforms, walking in slow motion to the strains of Frankie Goes To Hollywood really floats my boat !

(NURSE ???? Where's my pills ?????)

There is another Air NZ advert (also on You Tube) where the staff don´t appear to use uniforms.

I even remember Freddie Frinton. from the old black & white tv days. My Grand-Dad adored him

More recently, there was the American comedian who used to appear on chat-shows on TV, pretending to be blind drunk. I can't remember his name, but he also, was a tee-totaler.
