Those PG Tips Tea ads are absolute classics! They had to take them off for a while as everyone knew the chimps, but hardly anyone remembered what it was they were meant to be advertising :lol:.


 


Didn't the Duck star in some awful film with Peter O'Toole in it?

Murphy's War is the movie and to think the producers turned down the chance to make The Godfather to make this film. The Duck used in this film still survives today.

 

Avez vous un cuppa? :lol:  :lol:  :lol: :lol:  

 

Super shots!!!! I haven't seen shots of the Grumman Duck in quite awhile, looks good.

 

Great shots and great bird!

Is that ever a fantastic creation this plane! And looks super good on the screenshots. Well done.

Fantastic shots Martyn of your "Duck" .  Your chimps look pretty harmless , but looks can be deceiving :
