Adverts for Products That Never Existed.

[Dover]

Recently on TV I have noticed adverts for a miracle cleaner called "Cillit Bang," which I am certain does not exist.

Can other posters remember adverts for products that did not exist. For me is has to be a bus stop poster campaigin for "Sheela" an Australian perfume, and a TV campaign for "Uncle Wongs Chineese Food." This was on Channel 4 on it's inception.

Cillit Bang is most certainly real - its made by Reckitt Germany. Its just not been sold in the UK until recently

They own Reckitt and Colman, yes.

I should also point out, from asking a Slovakian friend, that Cillit products are basically bench-dilute HCl - e.g. very very nasty, burning products..
