Fruit Machine/Have a Guinness tonight (Bottle)

Colour television advertisement for Guinness Extra Stout. The advertisement opens with a couple playing a fruit-machine, as a voiceover asks: ‘What’s a Guinness between friends?’ As the machine spills out money, a song begins: ‘It’s when you hit the jackpot and you hear that welcome sound’. A sequence of people are seen playing cards, shopping, taking part in a talent competition, mountaineering, going on a date and, ultimately, each drinking a glass goblet of Guinness, as the song finishes: ‘Have a Guinness tonight, just between friends’. The advert concludes with a close-up of a Guinness logo, with the caption: ‘Just between friends’. Identical to GDB/MK08.01/0008/01 except for actors drinking from bottles/goblets instead of glasses of Draught Guinness Director: Gerry Poulson, Agency: Arks Ltd.
