14 Unforgettable Irish Ads From The Noughties

While most of us think of the '90s as our golden years, we really don't give the noughties the due they so rightly deserve.

So to bring you back to that bygone decade, we decided we'd take a look at a few of the best ads from that time. We guarantee there'll be a few blasts from the past...

1. Speaking Irish in a nightclub

One of Carlsberg's more brilliant ads, showing off just how shit the average Irish person is at our native language.

2. Swimming across the Atlantic

This Guinness ad was a double whammy, because it made us love Mic Christopher's 'Hey Day' and a young Michael Fassbender.

3. Taking my 'bits' out

We honestly only understood what this ad actually meant just now – and we're horrified.

4. Hipster culchies

T'was far from skinny lattes they were rared.

5. Tinted moisturiser

You'll never exclaim "Whaaat?!" as well as this kid did.

6. There's always one

This ad definitely inspired a slew of wonderfully original "there's always one!" jokes in your school.

7. "And oh, she was the Sunday in every week"

'The Planter's Daughter' featured in this rather lovely advert from Bord na Mona. Fun fact: Bell X1 named their album 'Music In Mouth' from a line in the poem.
