Milk Ad Lads, where are they?
 

:) Should we now be asking our media friends to locate the dymanic duo??

Or should we leave them to be our most famous non playing friends!

Your thoughts.:)

Think that would be a fab idea.

You didn't think John Coleman and Jimmy Bell were just random scousers did you?
schoolboy error :)

Re: Milk Ad Lads, where are they?
 

I think you should leave well alone. Stanley is its own entity it doesn’t need to be competing with a couple of childhood actors in the media spotlight.

The only media focus should be purely on the Club, its managers, players, their supporters, sponcers and the town of Accrington. Nothing else, it’s the managers and above all else the players who brought Accrington Stanley to the brink of League Football, not a drawl advert that played on past misfortunes of the former club.

Well, the main kid - the one on screen on his own for the most part of the ad was in this:

However; I've not got a clue which one he is... :)

the main lad was called Karl Rice and paid numerous visits to The Crown over the next few years. Can't find any reference to him on the Childrens Ward link though.

Re: Milk Ad Lads, where are they?
 

Well, it is the IMBD, so it's no surprise he's not on the list; there are quite a few inaccuracies on the site, missing people, incomplete credits, and people appearing in things they were never in...

ETA: and what a surpise, no entry under that name. Which kinda suggests he's not in acting anymore. He'd at least have cropped up in something otherwise.

Bring em back !!! Lets hope the club are on the case, this would be great Google Page Ranking.

Give us a green to the champions league :engsmil: Gone mad SR

One of the fellas was found yesterday on radio one!

Re: Milk Ad Lads, where are they?
 

One of the lads, Carl Rice, was on Radio Lancashire this morning. Apparently he's now performing stand-up in the Manchester area.

On a down note, he's coming to the IES next Saturday for the game against Satanage. ;)

Re: Milk Ad Lads, where are they?
 

It showed Carl Rice being interviewed at IES on Northwest News on BBC1 at tea time
