Talk:Cissie and Ada

Royal Mail (?Post Office) ads

These characters-- not named as such--- appeared in a series of post office ads in the eighties and nineties. I am not sure they were played by Les and Roy though I imagine so [for if not i imagine there would have been a lawyer!] This is very vague I know. If you think it worth trying to find more, I will rootle around.

^ (relpying to Simon Trew) It's been a long time but weren't the RM/Post Ofice adverts animated versions of the women gossiping over a fence? No idea all these decade later if Les & Roy did the voices or if was just inspired by the tv characters. Think the adverts were before Les died though, but could be wrong. 2A00:23C5:5674:DD00:D5C4:9073:D351:4DB4 (talk) 19:54, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

Found the UK Post Office advert I remembered on youtube.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CH_AG_6E2EA

description says "Les Dawson's voice brings to life Beryl Cook's cheeky illustrations. Director: Jerry Hibbert. Creative team: Damon Collins Agency: Gold Greenlees Trott. Year: 1990"

Pretty obviously based on Cissie and Ada 9including an animated version of mouthing words) but no idea if that's recorded anywhere that's wiki acceptable. 2A00:23C5:5674:DD00:D5C4:9073:D351:4DB4 (talk) 19:58, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
