Tips with Jeanne Heal
Take a tip from Googie Withers and friends and save the pounds.
Overview
A fast and funny advertising magazine film, in which Jeanne Heal reveals the winning housekeeping tips sent in by the public, with the winners receiving £25. Along the way she not-so-subtly sneaks in plugs for Horlicks, Lux and Persil. British star Googie Withers adds a touch of glamour, swearing that Lux’s toilet soap is the key to her complexion.
