when were cigarette ads banned from tv uk?
1 august 1965
in the 1960s, a few television ads were made in which gordon rollings played a man who did various things (such as waiting for the bus or setting up a beach chair) which would always end in misery. he then would grab a packet of woodbines from his pocket and light one up, followed by a happy tune and a man reading the line ""light up life with a woodbine! it's britain's best-selling cigarette!"". at the end. the ads were never played on tv however, as all television commercials for cigarettes were banned on 1 august 1965. a jingle was also made to promote woodbine in the late 1950s or early 1960s.
