I believe it was for a biscuit called 'Rockin' Robin' ... that was the soundtrack anyway, then at the end the Geordie voice chimed in with 'It's choc-a-block man!'

What about the advert from the 70s/80s ... I think it was for crisps .. when a Geordie voice intoned '.. he give us a pack a crisps a dog woulda curled its lip at'.

Very popular with advertisers, the Geordie accent.

Heat? What is this strange phenomenon called 'heat'? Is it something to do with removing one of your seven thermal lined cardigans when you feel a touch uncomfortable around the arm pit area?
