Seeing as someone always manages to find adverts etc. I thought Id try my luck with a TV ad ive been searching for for yonks. I first saw it when i was at seconday school - about 12 years ago.

It's a send-up of Aliens, with a space marine (called Brad) walking around a deserted spacecraft with a giant gun looking for this alien. Every now and again we get the alien's POV as it's zooming through these tunnels looking for Brad, then camera goes back to the marine (whos in contact with this other guy, telling him to be careful, take it easy, and can he see it yet?)

Then suddenly the alien comes down on top of the marine, causing him to yell "SSSSHHHHH---YYUUUURRRRE!!!" and run off-screen.

Then right at the end, the product logo comes up, something like "Have a break, have a kit kat", or "Carlsberg" or "Weetabix" or whatever the hell it is.

Anyone remember as its driving me crazy! :wack: :wack:

FOUND THE B***ARD!!!!!! bloody hell nearly 5 years after starting this thread, and searching various other forums. with some help from the Retro Gamer forum, someone who (I've no idea why but thank bejesus they do) uploads loads of videos of TV adverts thru the 80s and 90s actually remembered it and pointed me to his archive. after a couple of hours of trawling through them, I bloody found it didn't I!!!
