Talking to the Tea Folk
- Synopsis
- The construction of a 30-second television commercial requires the services of a large number of people who are experts in communication. Most advertisements are organised by advertising agencies whose staff include planners, researchers and creative directors. The advertisement itself is made by outside production companies who co-opt the skills of film-makers, model-makers, graphic artists, etc. as required. The programme follows the sequence of events leading to the production of the Tetley tea advertisement ‘Flavour Dance’, giving an account of how things are worked out by the agency D’Arcy Masius Benton & Bowles.

- NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
