Ooh, I want men in togas on the TWA foreign accent flight. I can't believe that was actually a thing. I'd even put the Mayo on my Spruce... or something.
That TWA ad left me gob-smacked! The past was a weird place - I mean, here in the UK in the 70s shit like Benny Hill and The Black and White Minstrel Show were prime telly viewing, and in the cinemas, unfunny "sex comedies" were everywhere. I am very anti censorship, but some things really are best left in the archives... Jx
