Helen&Lee Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 ....So there I was at the Terracotta pot shop picking up a planter for Mothers Day, when I decided to have a mooch around the gift shop... Chickenalia galore and amongst it the tea cosy off the Harveys furniture/Coronation Street Ad! Every bit as good as it looks in the advert and £9.95! I stood there oohh-ing and aahh-ing over it - big smile on my face - I even had to plump it up like it does it the advert! (god knows what they would have thought if they were watching me ) Then I put it down telling myself I didn't need it, walked round the shop, went back picked it up - and gave myself a stern talking to and put it down. You see, neither of us drink tea and we don't even own a teapot! My husband would seriously thought I'd lost the plot if I'd gone home with it.... Helen it's still very tempting though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I can't believe that you didn't get it Helen... why klet a small thing like not drinking tea get in the way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Thanks. I think they are so gorgeous.....and I'm convinced that I have seen them before too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I've never seen this ad and now I'm intrigued.. anyone got a link to it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Not exactly.....but is a fascinating link to a short film about the making of the ads. You only get the merest glimpse of the king and queen though . Intriguing all the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Brilliantly clever, but I couldn't see them... another time perhaps. Thanks Dear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 They are on the table for the last nanosecond of the film only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Ahhh, I saw something on the table, but couldn't figure out what it was; not knowing what to look for. I shall try again, with my specs on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
