What was the TV-rentals chain that used Harry Worth as the 'star' in their TV ads in the 1960s, doing his standing-at-the-edge-of-the-window-and-lifting-his-arm-and-leg-so-the-reflection-made-it-look-like-he-was-flying act?

Civic??

Then of course there was Andre Previn (or Andrew Preview as Morecambe&Wise were apt to call him) abd his Ferguson 'probably the best picture of all time' ads in the late-1970s.
