I loved the 'Chocolate Street' ones, simple yet effective. ISTR they had a whole exhibit on it at Cadbury World in Birmingham, though chance is that exhibition has long gone. They were good, but they should have really reshot them in 16:9, they looked awful cropped after Coronation Street switched to 16:9 Production. I never liked the animated ones in between, they were damn right annoying, the ones we have now aren't as bad, though saying that I don't usually watch Coronation Street anymore.


I liked the chocolate ones the most despite not watching Coronation Street that much. This question may sound obscure but was there a timetable on which day the individual Cadburys bars were advertised? I remember every Friday a Crunchie would be shown while during easter a Creme Egg would be shown and the rest of them would be occupied by a Dairy Milk.

It used to vary - sometimes the crunchie one used to be shown on other days and the person would say "just like Friday" instead.
