Yeah, this is the Spectrum ad I've seen most. Cool.
Besides Plus and Plus 2... was there a TV ad for the 16k/48k models when they came out in 1982 or 1983? I've been searching for a long time but I couldn't find any. Brochures, magazine ads, ... but no TV ads. Even the QL had one. But the original Spectrum didn't. It makes no sense.
Do you remember a TV campaign in the UK when the Spectrum came out?

By the way, all these ads might be included in their own entry in the database like the games, don't you think, [mention]Einar Saukas[/mention] ?

To be honest I don't recall any Spectrum TV adverts when I was growing up, although that maybe because my parents preferred the BBC (National broadcaster without adverts)!

Even the Timex had its own advert... why not the Spectrum?
