PG Tips
Who can forget the PG Tips advert with the PG chimps? The chimps were known as the Tipps family and where made to wear human clothes whilst lip synching to comedy actors voices.
Oxo
One of Britains most loved and remembered adverts was the Oxo Gravy advert. The Oxo family featured in a seris of 42 advertisments until the campaign ended in 1999.
Creature Comforts
Another favorite advert was the series of Creature Comfort adverts which advertised the Electricity Board. The series involved characters such as a tortoise, a cat, a family of penguins and a Brazilian parrot who were in their homes talking to an unseen interviewer behind a large microphone.
