I have either been told or else read (and I don't remember which) That the Hovis Gold Hill commercial was made by Ridley Scott in the early days of his film making career. A career which apparently began at Hartlepool Technical College and has taken him to the heights of the Hollywood film industry(Blade Runner etc.)He has a brother Tony Scott who is also a big wheel Hollywood director (Top Gun etc.) The thing that in my mind gives a shred of credibility is that I went to Grangefield Grammer School in Stockton on Tees and I do remember a boy there called Tony Scott. Stockton to Hollywood! it does seem incredible but I guess stranger things have turned out to be true. I would love to know the truth.
