    90’s TUNES ad

    Tunes is a brand of lozenge manufactured by The Wrigley Company in the UK. It is marketed as a cough sweet or anti-congestant lozenge, containing eucalyptus oil and menthol. It is a relative of the now discontinued Spangles brand, and shares the same packaging and dimensions of that brand. In the UK, Tunes no longer have the Spangles style packaging.

    There was a memorable TV advertising campaign for the product with the slogan ‘Tunes help you breathe more easily’.  The commercials featured the actor Peter Cleall who would perfectly enunciate the word ‘Tunes’ after taking the anti-congestant.

    1992 ad for Horlicks

    Horlicks is the name of a company and of a malted milk hot drink, which is claimed to promote sleep when consumed at bedtime. There is, however, no evidence that malted milk directly promotes sleep, merely staves off hunger pangs that may disturb sleep.[1] It is manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline in the United Kingdom, India and Jamaica.
