GUEST,Rik Hoskin UK Hovis ad 1970s (53* d) RE: UK Hovis ad 1970s 17 Jan 13


The original Hovis TV advert - featuring Dvořák's New World - was played by Ashington Brass Band (Northumberland).
It was originally recorded for a TV programme about footballers Bobby & Jack Charlton (also from Ashington).
I know this as my father (Dick Hoskin) was in the band, playing cornet, at the time.
The band was amalgamated with other pit bands - now called the Wansbeck Brass Band.
