One night in 1987 I was at a mate's place in Ivanhoe, and altogether there were three of us watching the video of The Hitcher. After the video had been going for just under an hour, the mate whose place it was, paused the movie to get up and get himself an ice-cream from the freezer. When he sat back down, I causally made a remark that we hadn't seen any ads.
My mate stopped the video, causing it to go back to the TV station through which the VCR was tuned, and sure enough, there was an ad playing.
