"Hello, Tyrannosaurus Alan!"
Volvic has aired several advertisements regarding their water and Volvic Revivenote . The most well known are the four that feature George the Volcano (voiced by Matt Berry) and Tyrannosaurus Alan (voiced by Tom Goodman-Hill), with the former recommending the latter to try out some of his water. You can watch the ones with George and Alan here
, and one with inventing the wheel here.
These ads provide examples of:
- Animate Inanimate Object: George is a volcano who can speak and move his hands.
- Badass Boast: What one would shout after drinking Volvic."Come on, world, I'll have you for breakfast!"
- Crunchtastic: "Volcanicity", a trait possessed by Volvic mineral water.
- Executive Ball Clicker: The third Alan & George commercial shows that tyrannosaurus Alan owns a Newton's cradle with skulls rather than balls alongside other office-like equipment.
- Inventing the Wheel: It looks like a Neanderthal just invented the wheel, but it turns out he invented a stripper pole.
- Large Ham: George shouts a lot and likes to gesticulate when talking with Alan.
- Signing-Off Catchphrase: George exclaims "Yes!" at the end of most ads with him.
