With thanks to the wonderful Classic Coronation Street on Facebook I've found this fab old British Gas video featuring none other than Jean Alexander in her Coronation Street role of Hilda Ogden.
The video says that "Hilda gives helpful advice on coping with bills, avoiding hypothermia, beatign the burglars and maintaining gas safety."
I've never seen this before. What a great little find!

Hmmm Google says it was produced in 1988. I must ask Himself if he was still working there. His department used to do graphic design for promotions but not sure if they had any hand in video/telly advertising.
