Pasta sauce advert voiceover from mid 1990s

[George 1978]

I am certain that Jeffery Kissoon, the actor who played teacher Chris Kennedy in Grange Hill in the mid 1980s (the one who shaved his obviously false moustache off in order to get Steven Banks to do the same) did a couple of voiceovers for pasta sauce adverts, either Dolmio or Ragu in around the mid...

It rings a vague bell for me too - could it be for Bird's or some company like that? That's Bird's and not Bird's Eye. The Sweet Trolley adverts from the mid 1980s really look so inviting that I would say yes to any of them as a desert!

Why wasn't the weather like this 15 days ago when it would have been traditional, and songs about snow were still playing on the radio? It never snows when...

This is more towards Toys and Games territory, but it made me think of those who owned a Teddy Ruxpin in the mid to late 1980s and other similar toys which had their own cassettes with songs and stories on - did they play ordinary tapes inside the bear and watched the bear speak if it was a "talking...
