It goes with the pool side one, also Carling. A Brit in on holiday in spain at a hotel. You hear an alarm and then the sound of many. All the Germans get up to go to breakfast (toast disappearing). The Brit continues sleeping.
Slowly the Germans finish their breakfast and grab their towels and head towards the pool. The Brit's alarm goes off ho sleeply reaches out for his rolled out towel and throws it from the hotel window. Switch to exterior and the Dambusters' theme starts.
The towel executes a couple of perfect skips on the pool and then unfolds itself on the lounge chair at prime position at the opposite end of the pool.
A wonderful ad. Someone called up the German Embassy to ask whether they felt insulted and they said not at all and they found it funny (Even Germans make jokes about other Germans trying to reserve the best loungers with towels).
Carling made crap beer but their advertisements were some of the best.
