The final video in the series, Alex James discusses life post rock and roll superstardom. Talking about his evolution from rock-star to farmer, he recognises he is part of a growing trend, “Paul McCartney…farmer, Roger Daltrey…farmer, Sting…farmer.”

First there was a drumming gorilla. Then there were the eyebrows. Now Cadbury has screened its brand new ad featuring a cow tap dancing to Fred Astaire’s song Putting on the Ritz:

(More pictures and video after the jump)

Complete with weird close up shot of the cow’s udder:

The ad finishes with the cow pushing aside mirrors and pushing back a purple curtain to finish with an ensemble act:

Lyrics of Putting on the Ritz used in Cadbury’s TV ad:

Dressed up like a million dollar trouper
Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper
Super-Duper.

If you’re blue and you don’t where to go to
Why don’t you go where fashion sits?
Puttin’ on the ritz.
