Harp television advertisement 'Boat Restaurant' in which revellers enjoy a house party, and a man in a pub finds a forgotten handbag and returns it to its owner, who then joins him for a glass of Harp lager. Colour advert opens with a close-up of a hand placing a record player needle on a record as music starts. A six-pack of Harp bottles is placed in front of the record player. A tankard is filled from a tap in close-up. A man enters the room carrying a tuba, followed by another man who puts his coat on a coat stand and looks around furtively before opening a grandfather clock to hide his six-pack of Harp, only to find the clock is already full of Harp packs. A queue of people enter a theatre, the last couple stopped by a man with a sign reading ‘full house’. Interspersed shots of a glass of Harp, a bottle being opened, the theatre couple drinking at a bar, a man picking up a handbag from a pub couch, a draughtboard using a Harp bottle cap as a counter, the man with the handbag being teased by his friend before returning to the bar with the young woman who owns the handbag, with caption ‘Harp’.
