Remember that Cadburys ad from... ooh, around 2007 in which a gorilla plays drums to Phil Collins’ In The Air Tonight? How could you not? The calm patience of the ape, waiting for his cue is etched upon our collective memory. It had little to do with chocolate but that really didn’t matter: it was, by most folk’s reckoning, a brilliant TV ad.
You may well have assumed that that ape was CGI-ed. Not so. An actual actor – in a gorilla suit – thumped those drums. And now he has given an interview with the BBC about his experience.
