    Who is Barry Scott, he of the "Cillit Bang" ads?

    Question #77477. Asked by darkpresence. (Mar 19 07 2:07 PM)

    Cillit Bang is a brand name for a range of cleaning products created by consumer products giant Reckitt Benckiser.
    UK advertisements are presented by the over-enthusiastic fictional character Barry Scott. Barry claims that Cillit Bang has the ability to remove limescale, rust and ground in dirt.
    Neil Burgess is an actor best known for his portrayal of the character "Barry Scott" on the UK version of the television adverts for cleaning product Cillit Bang.

    He has, as a result of this, developed several famous (as well as humorous) shouted catchphrases. Some of these include "Hi, Barry Scott here!", "Look what it does to this penny!" and "Bang, and the dirt is gone!" Neil has also appeared in the music video for Real To Me by Brian McFadden. He also appeared on The Bill as an axe murderer.

    He reprised his Barry Scott character to advertise for EasyOff's new multipurpose Bam cleanser.
