Pebble can have DGI +1 for mentioning adverts, though not the PG Tips chimps. I think they were done by Graham Stark.
Geggs, not the Mr Men.

Trouble is, when it comes to Callow it's possibly easier to work out what he hasn't done. The list would probably be shorter.

I'll give GT a correct +3
Ringo we've already established as being the voice for Thomas & Friends.
Goddard & Callow did provide a voice for the same character, though separated by several years.
Which character? How does it relate to Ringo's bit? Did I give a clue in post 21?

Just to remove ambiguity, the Goddard/Callow character was not from the Thomas books.

Snap, crackle and pop?
Just trying to think of characters in adverts where the voices could still be believable with that much variation.
Scouse or Dickins impersonator - it's quite a range.

Taff DGI +1 for Bear.
But not Paddington, or Honey Monster.

No scratch that that's what I get for incomplete reading of forum posts.

Nope.
Clue. What did Post 21 get points for?

Geggs Posted Sep 25, 2010
Well, adverts. So I'm currently trying to think of bears used in advertising.
