    Does anyone recognise the 1930s dance type music in the new UK ad for Boots Cholesterol Tests on ITV featuring Jonny Wilkinson?

    Question #50368. Asked by satguru. (Aug 18 04 6:02 PM)

    		I just got word from Boots, no wonder there were no answers as they're actually using an original tune that's their own. No old music that's out of copywrite for them.
    Chalk up another satguruism.

    and here's the actual ad for those that can't get it on TV http://www.adelphoi.com/adelphoi.html click showreel, then Boots 'Jonny'

    		I've just played that clip, satguru, and I thought I'd heard it before, too. I have a feeling that we used to do some sort of Scottish dance to music like that at school, and it was called "The Gay Gordons". Don't suppose they do it now...
