1980s Esb Advert Going Home

ESB Advert from the 1980's. Before we had Elton John twinkling away on his piano for John Lewis, another star was making his small-screen debut in one of the best-loved Christmas ads of all time. The ESB 'Going Home' advert first arrived on Irish screens over a quarter of a century ago and has resonated with audiences ever since.

IRELAND AM star Alan Hughes looked completely unrecognisable in a throwback Christmas advert from the 1980s. The popular Ireland AM presenter appeared on the small screen in the ESB Going Home. Those of you who are old enough should remember this.

This is an ad broadcast in Ireland in the late 80s and early 90s. For some reason everyone always seems. As Christmas ad season approaches it's worth recalling that a classic from over 30 years ago features one of the country's best known TV personalities.

The ESB 'Going Home' advert has gone down in the annals of Christmas TV ads as an absolute classic.
