This advert combines live-action with stop-frame animation to extoll the pleasures of Shippam's Chicken Supreme - in a can. We start with a can wobbling to camera followed by various shots of the product being served on a plate for dinner or on toast along with cups of tea on a tray. The packshot shows a can of Chicken Supreme with a price tag of 2/9 - equivalent to about 14 pence in decimal currency.
