From frozen vegetables to fast food, cereal to cigarettes - some of the best loved ad images of the 20th century have names like Tony, Ronald and the Marlboro man - all of whom have had a profound influence on our buying habits.

Did the Milky Bar kid drive you around the twist?

Should Freddo Frog be admited into the Hall of Fame?

. . . stay tuned
