The PG Tips Monkey is back
Voiced by Ivo Graham and married to Emily Atack
The PG Tips Monkey is back – voiced by Ivo Graham.
And he no longer lives with Johnny Vegas, but has a new home life with Mrs. M, played by Emily Atack.
They star in a new series of reality TV-inspired ads, At Home With Monkey in which they talk about their unseen children Earl and Chai.
The first clip features a nod to the Beckhams’ Netflix documentary, with Monkey urging his wife to ‘be honest’ to the cameras in the same way David insisted Victoria be frank about how she was drive to school in a Rolls-Royce.
Atack – who came to fame playing Charlotte Hinchcliffe in The Inbetweeners – described playing Mrs M, aka Alice, as ‘hilarious and heartwarming in equal measure’.
he said: "It’s not often you get the opportunity to work with a national treasure. Filming alongside the knitted and quick-witted Monkey has been such a joy – I absolutely loved stepping into the role of Mrs M, and living life one tea at a time as Monkey’s other half.
‘Alice definitely keeps Monkey on his toes, and I think many couples will relate to their dynamic. I can’t wait to spill the tea on what this duo have been up to.’

Elle Barker, chief marketing officer at PG Tips owner Lipton, said: ‘Monkey is a legendary mascot beloved by the British public – people have missed him, so have we.
‘His comeback is long overdue and this new campaign captures the chaos of family life and the role that tea plays in fuelling the day for British families.’
