[Iwonderwaz]

What is the longest run a tv star has had advertising the same product

[JimF]

I always thought this was Bill Cosby for Jell-O.

Lineker?

[Hopkirk]

It feels like Claudia with Head and Shoulders, though Gary 'Walkers' Linekar might take it.

[Mozz71]

Barry Scott.

Which country are you asking about?

How about 'Life with Katie' for Oxo? According to wikipedia Katie was played by Mary Holland from 1958 until the early 1970s. Then Lynda Bellingham became the Oxo mum from 1983 to 1999.

Annie McDowell must go close with l'Oréal and 'You're worth it'....

[JimF]

The OP didn't specify a country. Pretty sure it's Cosby.

The PG Tips chimps

[Hopkirk]

Gary Linker needs the money.

Guinnes Book of Records - the longest running TV commercial for the same product presented by the same actor is Akai Kitsune Udon presented by Tetsuya Takeda (Japan), which was first aired in 1978 and has run for 41 years, as of 11 April 2019.

Back to the Udon noodles and Sushi, folks.....

[Hopkirk]

Alekandr Orlov (the meerkat)?

Tora, the question was which STAR.
