CDP Classic ads - McEwan's Lager (1988)

This McEwan's lager comercial, running at 2 minutes, was almost certainly made for cinema presentation.

Called 'Escher', it's a living representation of the artist's work with a heavy dose of Orwell's '1984'.

Another classic advert from the Collett Dickenson Pearce (CDP) agency.

It was called actually filmed in 1986 but it ran for about five years both on national TV and in cinemas and was filmed in 35mm for cinema release. McEwans released a 3" mini CD of the original soundtrack from all 3 ads starting with Escher in 1986 through to the last one in 1989. It included the actually Win remix with the advert lyrics but without the iron bells.

I'd roll a boulder around a Castle for a free pint and so would the lot of you.
