Fadó Fadó

They don't make ads like they used to! They may only last a few seconds, but television adverts offer a unique and entertaining window into Irish life over the decades.

FADÓ FADÓ, takes us on a nostalgic trip down memory lane as different generations of family and friends come together to revisit the funniest, cheekiest, most unforgettable ads to ever grace Irish screens since television first arrived in homes in the 1960s.

From the swinging '60s to the disco-lit '70s, the sky-high hair of the '80s, and the Celtic Tiger–charged, grunge-tinged '90s, we look back at the ads that defined their eras. We discover how they still have the power to shock and delight, to make us laugh and cry—and how they reveal so much about Ireland and how we've evolved.
