Orange Tango's 'happy slapper' TV ad star met tragic end after banned craze
The famous Tango Orange TV advert, which saw a man in a nappy slap a drinker around the face, was banned after sparking copycat crazes - but what became of the actor Peter Greeves? Sometimes an advert captures our imagination so brilliantly, like the heartwarming John Lewis Christmas commercials that people look forward to every year. But in other moments, adverts spectacularly misfire – remember the 1992 'happy slapper' Tango advert with its infamous line, "You know when you've been Tango'd"? The notorious ad depicted a trio of youngsters on a street corner, one enjoying a can of Tango, with a voiceover from Outnumbered star Hugh Dennis alongside sports commentator Ray Wilkins. They narrated a slow-mo replay of the Tango drinker getting slap around the face by a bright orange man sporting a bald head and a nappy. The slap was intended to represent the intense hit of the drink's flavour. Marking the launch of Tango's new comedic campaign, the advert inadvertently sparked a rash of copycat slapping incidents in playground s, allegedly causing children to sustain burst ear drums – leading to the immediate ban of the commercial. Relatively unknown talent Peter Greeves took on the role of the Tango man, having worked in some films and TV series such as Muppet Treasure Island, Nuns On The Run, Birds Of A Feather, Closer To Home, and Men Behaving Badly, reports OK!. Recounting the ad's casting, art director Trevor Robinson shared reflections with The Guardian, saying: "Somehow we also convinced serious up-and-coming actor Peter Geeves to play the Orange Man. We knew as soon as he auditioned – the way he ran with his stomach sticking out – that he'd be perfect." He elaborated on the original concept for the advertisement, revealing: "At first, we thought the ad would have a fat orange genie who ran up and kicked the Tango drinker on the bum. Of course, the advertising authority at the time, the BACC, said no way. We got the script cleared by changing the kick to a pleasant, Morecambe and Wise -style slap on the face. I think it's safe to say the little slap got a bit out of hand." He also recounted learning about the troublesome trend it sparked, saying: "I remember having a conversation with a doctor, who complained that kids were 'Tangoing' each other at the cost of perforated ear drums." Peter Geeves seemingly vanished from the public eye in 1996 as he quit acting to establish a micro-brewery with his son, providing Yorkshire pubs with their own local brews. The pair's Tunnel Mouth was even named champion beer at a breweries festival. However, he did appear in five episodes of police drama The Bill, an episode of Doctors and two episodes of EastEnders, where he played Len. In a chat with ITV back in 2006, Peter nostalgically recalled his stint in the Tango advert, quipping: "I was asked to first of all run around, then run around and scream, then run around screaming topless, it was at that point I thought 'aye-aye, this isn't the normal run of the mill advert'". Sadly, Peter's IMDB page reveals the news that he passed away on 31 December 2022, at the age of 67, leaving behind a wife, Suzanne, and two children.

Add to playlist: Sarah Meth's resplendent, intimate songwriting and the week's best new tracks
From North LondonRecommended if you like Helena Deland, Billie Eilish, Okay Kaya Up next Headlining Bermondsey Social Club, 30 July; playing Green Man festival, Brecon Beacons, August London-based singer-songwriter Sarah Meth makes eerie, skeletal dream-pop cut through with a self-deprecating, very online sense of humour. A scan of her artist page on any streaming service offers a gratifying biography of an artist slowly but surely chipping away at her style in search of a distinct point of view: the lounge jazz stylings of 2020's Dead End World give way to piquant, post-King Krule bedroom pop on 2022's Leak Your Own Blues and Billie Eilish-ish pathos on 2023's Steps EP. What could feel like a dog's dinner of genres is held together by Meth's warm, laconic voice and knack for resplendent but pathologically small-scale production. Winnies, a song from last year's NY ILY single, is built atop a delirious, translucent organ line. Unlike many of her songs, which deal in winking self-subjugation, Winnies is about a blooming sense of self-determination, and Meth smartly plays it as something that could disappear at any moment. At a recent show at London's Theatreship, a cabaret theatre on a boat in Canary Wharf, Meth previewed new songs that alternated between amenable folk music in the style of Julia Jacklin and Angel Olsen, and shimmery, skew whiff pop songs that she sang over a prerecorded track. The modes proved surprisingly complementary – indie music ego and id, maybe, or a real-time battle between extroversion and introversion. The new songs were indelible and exciting: memorable odes to growing up, and falling in and out of love, that stand out in a crowded field of indie-pop newcomers. Shaad D'Souza Debby Friday – Bet on Me'Scared of what just might happen / If I go ahead and bet on me,' the Canadian pop star exhales over anxious breakbeats, building to a cheerleader chant riotous with self-belief. LS Galya Bisengalieva – Alash-kala (The Bug Reflection) From a new EP also featuring an ambient reinterpretation by KMRU, this remix of Alash-kala sees Kevin 'The Bug' Martin blow the Kazakh-British composer's lonely, glacial crackle up to an end-of-days cataclysm. LS Danny L Harle & PinkPantheress – StarlightHarle is a hard dance revivalist and a pop producer for Caroline Polachek and Dua Lipa, and both impulses cohere on this soft-donk stomper with Grimes-ish vocals from PinkPantheress. BBT Agriculture – BodhidharmaAnyone lamenting the loss of Black Sabbath this week should turn to this crushing post-metal anthem, with a splendid sky-scorching riff as well as eerie sound design and quiet-loud thrills. BBT Geese – TaxesAfter frontman Cameron Winter became an indie darling thanks to his classic solo debut Heavy Metal, Geese return with a winner: a rumpled slacker tune that straightens up and sticks out its chest for a joyful chorus. BBT SJ – OzilWith cool, softly swinging jazz obliterated by the arrival of a hard-headed drill beat, the Tottenham MC sprinkles references to his footballing past with the nimbleness of a boy-wonder midfielder. [Not on Spotify] BBT Fever Ray – Now's the Only Time I Know (Therapy Session) Karin Dreijer is releasing an album of studio mixes of live versions of old songs: this spooked song about domesticity from their 2009 debut becomes a savage, ravey exorcism.
