Ad transcription:

Billie:
When your old man starts talking
And he won’t give it a rest
If you want my advice, mate
I’d have a pint of Courage Best.
It’s so gold, and clear, and beautiful
That I can hardly wait.
Without a doubt, it’s one of the things
That makes this country great.
They ought to have a pint
On exhibition at the Tate.
You won’t get nothing like it…
A lovely pint of Courage Best.
Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit….
Pianist:
Yap, yap, yap.

Performed by Karen Meagher and Jo Masters
