Lucozade, Daley Thompson And The Phantom

[Anonymous]

Can someone put me out of my misery bUt I am sure in the early to mid eighties there was an advert for Lucozade which basically had British decathlete Daley Thompson and had The Phantom of The Opera as the soundtrack. No-one I speak to remembers it! I was quite young at the time (I bet some of you bastards werent even born) so I may be imagining the whole thing!!

Anybody out there help me?

Yeha, that's right, it had Daley Thomson waiting in the blocks and then starting a practice run as the intro to Phantom built up. It was a long time ago, lucozade bottles were still glass.

More recently, the track has been used for a KFC advert, with the colonel falling from the sky or something if I remember.

What more should he say? :: thegodthatish asked if someone remembers that ad, and Neph said he did. What else is there to it?

I remember the AD, not clear enough as it seems. I seem to recall it was Linford Christie not Daley Thompson. This fact I added to Wikipedia only for someone else to correct it. ::
