From cat food to Coca-Cola, stocking fillers to stock cubes, Christmas has provided the perfect opportunity to sell the viewing public everything and anything. Here, Julian Clary remembers the good, the great, and the unforgettable. Bill Oddie looks back at his 1980s Christmas Woolworth ads, and Jason Bradbury remembers how the commercials for Action Man made it the must-have toy of the 1970s. Others looking back include Oz Clarke, Anita Harris, Rustie Lee, Hal Cruttenden, Lucy Porter, Natalie Haynes and Mark Borkowski.
