Talk to Cadbury about the modern Milk Tray Man and you could win a £200 Experience Day Gift Card NOW CLOSED

[AngelieMumsnet]

Thirty-five years since his first appearance, the Milk Tray Man is back and is being re-imagined for the 21st century. Cadbury are keen to hear from Mumsnetters about who they think best represents the modern Milk Tray Man (or woman!).

Cadbury say “The Milk Tray man is back and he’ll be daring but caring, thoughtful yet thrill-seeking - and he’ll go to any lengths to deliver a box of Milk Tray to a loved one.”

What traits do you think the modern Milk Tray Man or woman should have, and who do you think best embodies these qualities? Your favourite actor, dressed to thrill in a smart black polo neck and grappling hooks . Your best friend, who’s helped you through some tough times? Maybe your partner has all the key qualities?

Whomever you think represents the modern Milk Tray Man, Cadbury would love to hear about it.

Everyone who adds a comment will be entered into a prize draw where one MNer will win a £200 Experience Day Gift Card for you and your loved one(s).*

John Hamm, he's dishy & he'll need something to do now Mad Men is over

For me it would be David Beckham, when i watched his documentry I was struck by how much of a wonderful man he is both inside and out. And could you imagine those pants swinging through the window? I could ;)

Prince Harry would be the ideal replacement. He seems like a nice, funny guy!

Would have to be TOM Daley

bear from x on the beach!

I would say Ian sommerhalder

I would pick Alan Carr as he could make me laugh and humour me - chocolates to eat as well - yummy

Helen Skelton

Claire Balding would be my Milk Tray woman. Strong ,capable, caring and curvacious!

Jamie Dornan would be welcome

I think it needs to be the unlikely hero for the modern milk tray man. The unassuming man in modern day life who, if push comes to shove, is capable of rescuing others. Not as in fixing your printer type of guy (nerd type) but the quiet unassuming reliable one who will chat away to you as a friend bum it can swiftly catch you if you trip over. A dark knight.

I don't think you'll ever get him to do an advert but Prince Harry would be perfect

If it was a woman i think Halle Berry would be fab. For a man i think less serious and would choose Jimmy Carr. He'd probably be the least serious person and couldnt stop himself laughing (and that laugh is contagious, top quality!!)

Daniel Craig

the gorgeous Channing Tatum

Love a man that can make me laugh so I choose David Walliams - attractive, funny & makes me smile!

boris johnson....so funny, he'd get stuck half way, i'd have to rescue him, he would share chocolates with me and we could have a jolly giggle about it all.

Rowan Atkinson as Johnny English. A hapless, but well-intentioned man with a strong moral compass and a sense of humour. A kind of amazing 'have a go hero' you hear about occasionally.
He would swoop in and deliver Milk Tray to anyone who needed or deserved it, not just the love of his life- someone who has just run a marathon for charity, a stressed parent struggling to juggle a job and family who finally sits down at the end of a tough day, a child who overcomes a disability, a person who witnesses an accident and stops to help.
You get the idea- uplifting Milk Tray 'moments' for the 21st century.

I think a Milk Tray couple...David and Victoria Beckham! They've got the look, the style and the romance!

Its a bit outdated. I would suggest milk tray lady. Carol from the walking dead. Her character has a lot of gusto!

Had another thought. Why not make it a cartoon type dairy milk man. Danger mouse would be great. Or even Penfold.

But NEVER Keith Lemon. That would be wrong and an affront to humanity.

Brear Grylls

Bradley Cooper!!! He looks like a perfect gent & is drop dead gorgeous

Bear Grylls..it'd make for a pretty exciting advert!

I would say an ordinary person who has to do the extraordinary every day - I.e,most parents. Milk tray picked up at the shops for a pal in hospital, basically lumped beside every single other task that has to be done for the day. Let's face it, most of us perform superhuman stuff when there's kids and real life involved.
