This is an appeal on behalf of Bernard Hill

Bernard's mouth is very dry. He's been walking miles to voice-over studios in every corner of the land for over 70 years.

Bernard Hill has done every single voice-over for every dubious cause. Ever.

If there's a starving child in Africa that a camera crew is keen to film rather than feed, Bernard will be all over it. He  does not let the tens of thousands of pounds spent on the advert which would feed a village for months worry him.

If there's a nice looking animal you can pretend to "adopt", stop.
Don't do it without calling Bernard Hill first.

Flies around an African child? Bernard Hill

Children with some make-up around their eyes? Bernard Hill.

For God's sake everybody, look very sad! It's Bernard Hill.

For a mixture of Merseyside monotony and highly saleable melancholy, for pity's sake... Call Bernard Hill.

Please.. 

Call Bernard Hill now.

You may remember him in full vigour in Shirley Valentine or Boys from the Blackstuff.

But now Bernard is thirsty.

Very thirsty indeed.

Bernard hasn't had a drink of water since he came into the studio four minutes ago.

He's worked intensively for almost 40 seconds, and he's got at least another 30 to go.

Please help.

£1.50 will buy him a Fruit Shoot.

Just a pound will get him a branded bottled water from the Coca-Cola company.

For £3 a month, we can keep Bernard fully hydrated.

Don't tell him to drink tap water.

It's Bernard Hill.

Please.

Call now.

[Remember....Hill, not Cribbins. 

They look a bit similar. But sound totally different].
