Adverts shown during the Christmas Day broadcast of the film Swiss Family Robinson from 1986. There are a couple of familiar faces in these, such as John Challis (Boycie from Only Fools & Horses) and Lynda Bellingham (Oxo Family), while there is some pleasure to be had recognizing ads you'd forgotten from years ago (such as the Ovaltine ad and Dixcel Kitten Maze) or stores now longer running (ie, Debenhams). There are 4 ad breaks in total, and they are as follows:
