Peter Kay back in John Smiths adverts


PETER Kay has returned to our television screens after a four year absence. Kay became an advertising sensation around eight years ago as the comedian became the front man for John Smith's with catchphrases such as "top bombing" and "two lamb bhunas". John Smith's have brought Kay back with the view for him to appear in three more TV adverts.

The first advert was released during the Premier League clash between Liverpool and Chelsea at 1:30 pm last Sunday. The advert has been accepted with praise throughout the UK and Kent as John Smith's adverts once again seem to be the topic of conversation.

Peter Kay's official Facebook group posted a clip of the advert today and the clip already has 1,141 people 'liking' the video.

Karen Cox from Sevenoaks, Kent commented on the link, saying: "love it, glad your back in the Ads".

The ad campaign is set to run for six weeks and this particular advert has Kay creating an awkward moment in a restraunt with his TV wife". Four weeks of political campaigning is bound to have taken its toll on the Great British public," said Gareth Turner, senior brand manager at John Smith's owner Heineken UK. "They are in need of some no nonsense and a decent dose of light relief and Peter is the perfect man to deliver both." The ad was directed by Danny Kleinman, who was behind the original adverts which aired from 2002 to 2005.
