Sweney, Mark (1 February 2010). "PG Tips spoofs When Harry Met Sally in latest Monkey ad". The Guardian. London . Retrieved 19 September 2017. I was deprived of the 1966 Esso collection probably due to the fact that I was only a year old, so nobody collected them for me but one of my elder brothers I know, still has his 'World Cup Willie' badge! I know it's a long time ago but PG Tips issued a series of cards...similar to cigarette cards..in the 1960's. My dad had a small collection of these which were given to me after he died in 1966. Just wondered if anyone remembers them. In May 2007, Unilever became the first company to commit to sourcing all its tea in a sustainable manner. [16] [17] [18] To that end, the company asked the Rainforest Alliance, an international environmental NGO to start certifying tea estates in East Africa. [18] [19] Since April 2012, all of the tea used in PG Tips has been Rainforest Alliance certified. [20] Now the Esso coins, I still have my 1970 England World Cup Squad (in its folder), the 1972 Centenary of the F.A Cup medals also Esso and also from 1971/2 Cleveland petrol (remember them?) British Army Campaign Medals. I did have the Esso football league club collection from about the same time but these weren't medals but a sort of foil badge but sadly they didn't make the journey through time!As of 2011, a "Special Moments" range was released, initially as the "New Ones." These teas were made by pressing the leaves at different stages. In 2014, Unilever introduced a new range of fruit, herbal, and green teas under the PG Tips brand.

After the US federal decision in support of same-sex marriage in 2015, PG Tips depicted its Monkey character under the rainbow flag in a message of support for gay marriage, which received some criticism for being a political statement. [12] In 2015, as part of a rebrand, adverts featured Monkey observing absurd things and deciding to "Keep it tea." [13] In February 2023, the BBC reported that an investigation had found more than 70 women had been sexually abused on tea farms in Kenya that supply PG Tips. [22] Slogans [ edit ]

In 2007, PG Tips reunited Johnny Vegas as Al and the ITV Digital Monkey character made by Paul Jomain, puppeteered by Nigel Plaskitt and Susan Beattie, and voiced by Ben Miller. ITV Digital had used the Monkey character in its own advertising but had entered administration in March 2002. In the end, ITV Digital’s former terrestrial multiplexes were taken over by Crown Castle and the BBC to create the Freeview free-to-air service. The Monkey character pointedly explains he's not a chimpanzee, he's a monkey, a nod to PG Tips' chimpanzee family.
