Roy Jay - 80s Schweppes Advert

Weird! Unrelaxed! Roy Jay was a comedian in the 80s and he appeared on Bobby Davro's show in a convict's outfit, saying "weird, unrelaxed" and "slither hither and swoop" and generally being crap. I thought he was funny for some reason, but I was about 3.

Anyway, here he is advertising Schweppes pop in cans.

Does anyone have a link or a copy of the video he did for schweppes that had the camels in? I think he said something along the lines of "Even the camels are weird."

Remember my nephew, only a kid then entered Pontins talent comp with pyjamas with arrows marked on them doing a little bit of his act.Surely someone with a video of his act if not the TV companies.Acts like this make Britain the unique country it is.

Cooper,Stavros Flatley and the comedian, dont know his name, who said he had had an accident but he was all right now accompanied by a pretend seizure.
