In the early 1960's the PG Chimps were so popular. They not only performed on the TV advertising but they travelled the length and breadth of the United Kingdom and I remember taking smaller children that myself ( I would have been 7 or 8) and we would walk to see the Chimps perform on stage.
Brooke Bond used Chimpanzees in their TV advertisements for PG Tips tea. This is a full collection of those advertisements
