So epically random that I think I could have dreamt it. It was maybe 20 + years ago that either radio 1or 2 used to play this ad/ jingle for Hobart, Tasmania. It sounded like it was from the 1950's and was advising for what a wonderful town it was.
It was probably some sort of skit that went over my head, but it I still remember it 🤔.

An incredibly random one, but in the 80's Yorkshire Television used to have a Christmas helpline to help you sort out festive emergencies. I can remember the whole jingle including the phone number "ring ytv's Christmas line on Leeds 448199" to a jaunty tune. I also remember the Um Bongo jingle and the Birds Eye potato waffles jingle.

The Hobart Tasmania was Chris Tarrants breakfast show on Capital Radio I think

@Doingtheboxerbeat It was Chris Tarrant on the Capital Radio breakfast show. I can still sing that word for word!

Everyone's a fruit and nut case
Crazy for those Cadbury nuts and raisins

Toblerone, out on its own
Triangular chocolate.
That’s Toblerone
With triangular honey from triangular bees
And triangular almonds from triangular trees
And oh, Mr Confectioner please,
Give me Toblerone.

STOP! What a great thread.

Forgotten the Curry Motors - did you grow up listening to capital in the 90s by any chance?!

This one

Kenny Everett's Charleston-like jingle for Radio London T shirts. From the sixties, before they closed the pirate radio stations.
I never tried to remember it, but I must have heard it so many times:

Our T shirts are a rave, you'll agree,
I'm wearing one and just look at me,
I look so debonair, the picture of health.
I look so sexy, I could fall for myself
Makes you look a treat, makes your life complete
Why not buy one too, they'll do the same for you.
Don't hesitate but buy one today
You'll be disappointed if you delay
They're only 12/6, as likely as not
They're what everybody who is somebody has got
Ooo!
