  • Nathan, Nathan, Nathan.... xD

  • @michaeljfreak HAHAHA hilarious XD

  • sooooo cheesy XD

  • Hello, Giles! hahaha.

  • How far did the commercials go in the US? Did the couple get married etc.?

  • @corky7ca

    From "THE OFFICIAL SITE OF ANTHONY HEAD": In the US the commercials ran for thirteen episodes, from 1990 to 1997 and were for Taster's Choice® coffee. Anthony's character was called Michael in the US ads and Matthew in the UK. In February 1998, Taster's Choice ran a contest/vote to ask consumers, 'Should Sharon Maughan's character end up with Michael or with her son's father, Andrew'? The results were announced in the March 3, 1998, Soap Opera Digest and voters preferred Michael.

  • @michaeljfreak I have to admit, Giles is funnier when he's drunk, though.

    Buffy: Giles, are you DRUNK?!

    Giles: yes, I believe I am. 

  • @Gilari Xander: And...(turns to Willow)...Tara's your girlfriend?!

    Giles: (passed out drunk upstairs) Bloody hell...

  • OMG it's Prime Minister from Little Britain, and Peter Boyd the most cantankerous police superintendent in the whole UK.

  • Taster's Choice? I want some serious gourmet shit.

  • I thought Giles drank tea!

  • i tryed sooooooo friken hard to not laugh during this commercial for the sake of Anthony...my cutie..but LOOL

  • Are Sharon Maughan and Alexandra Vandernoot (from Highlander the series)

    the same person? To me, the look alike.

  • @mblosser1 your right they look exactly alike!

  • Sharon Mughan played the wife of a coffee farmer in 1914 Kenya in "The Flame Trees of Thika"...her character has an affair with Ben Cross's, and he's played two vampires on tv, including Barnabas Collins in the remake of "Dark Shadows".

    Later, Trevor Eve would play a colonial-era Kenya Police inspector in the "Heat of the Sun" series.

  • Comment removed

  • hi does anyone know if trevor eve was in more than this one commercial as theex husband

  • I always wanted to get in three-way with those two.

  • I miss these commercials.

  • Who plays the son? He look so familiar!

  • it does what its told

  • Homestar Runner Reference FTW!

  • The guy driving the car in the final scene ("So, Jeremy, how's your mother?" is Trevor Eve, mainly known from the BBC series Shoestring and, latterly, Waking the Dead. That was even more incongruous than hearing those transatlantic accents from Tony Head and Sharon Mughan/Maughan. He seems to play the ex-husband in this scene, but he is Sharon Maughan's real life husband.

  • OMG! I used to run to the television just to see him in those commercials! I would make people shut up when ha was on...LOL!

  • SO weird hearing him do the same character with an American accent. Why? They re-shot the U.S. ones (at least, the ones I saw), so why not just use an American actor? Not that I'm complaining, and neither is he.

    Someone asked if he ever regretted doing these. He said absolutely not. It raised his profile, led to VR.5, Buffy, choices & the money for the home & farm & horses he & his family now have.

    But the real surprise here is Trevor Eve as the ex-husband. I never knew THAT!

  • just imagine if you hadn't come to sunnydale.
