THERE IS SOMETHING about old television ads that really take you back.

Thus, we’re delighted to offer up this compilation of ads from RTE. They aired between 1990 and 1992, and are really very special.

Watch, and marvel at all the different ways RTE have tried to convince people to pay their TV license, and the fact that Centra’s colours used to be blue and yellow!
