Humphreys
The Humphrey's were a product of Unigate designed to make us
drink more milk during the mid 70s. "Watch out, there's a
Humphrey about" was the slogan.
The TV ads consisted of a giant red and white stripy straw
appearing from nowhere in order to pinch your milk.
Many toddlers were truly terrified of the Humphrey ads. They
would hide behind the sofa in a Dalek-frenzy.
Several celebrities appeared on the TV ads, including Sid
James, Rod Hull & Emu, and Arthur Mullard. To this day many of
these people still get a chill when they see Arthur Mullard on TV.
