Colour television commercial for Draught Guinness. The advertisement opens in a clerk’s office, where a young man is sitting before the desk of a more senior colleague. The older man looks through a document marked ‘draft’ and points out that he doesn’t approve of the 20 % figure suggested by the younger man. They haggle and eventually settle on a figure of 12½ %. The matter settled, the older man suggests they have ‘a cup of tea’. They reconvene in a pub, drinking Guinness from tankards, where the older man smiles and enquires: ‘It was 10%, wasn’t it?’, to which the younger man’s expression suddenly becomes serious. The advert concludes with the two men holding their pints, as a caption reads: ‘Get together with a Guinness’. Production Company: Gerry Poulson Associates (GPA), Agency: ARKS Ltd

Colour television commercial for Draught Guinness. Advert opens with view of group of four men and women seated at a table in a lounge drinking gin and tonic. Zooms in to the bored-looking man in the middle, as a voiceover (in a broad Irish accent) expresses his thoughts: ‘Don’t forget, she says, we’ll be with Mary’s mother and father, so for your son’s sake don’t talk about horses and don’t go ordering pints for everyone. Cruelty to husbands, that’s what it is.’ Soon, the younger couple arrive into the pub, and Mary, standing behind him, says ‘Hello, Mr. Robey’. (note: Mr. O'Brien in other versions). The young woman encourages him to have a Guinness instead of his mineral water, and to get her one too, to the man’s obvious delight. The entire group are then seen drinking Draught Guinness from Waterford tankards, as the man thinks: ‘Ah, there’s hope for the younger generation yet!’ The advert concludes with the man holding his pint, as a caption reads: ‘Get together with a Guinness’.
