These are adverts shown during the broadcast of the film The Bishop's Wife in 1991. There are a couple of possibilities of famous faces, as the girl in the Irn Bru ad looks similar to Denise Van Outen, while the Birmingham Building Society ad (the restaurant scene) looks very like Rosie Marcel of Holby City.
