There is one episode where Glenda complains that Barry wont eat his muesli but I would not call that British ??
You are correct Dick, it is not that one
In THE EXPERIMENT Pearl says Howard looks like a free gift from a CORNFLAKES packet ??
Well done Dick, so there is at least two episodes where a breakfast cereal is mentioned and I am looking for another one

If it's Weetabix, that's from Of Passion and Pizza, referring to Mrs Crayshaw, a personal trainer, from Brighouse accused of eating it raw. Not being British, I didn't know that was cereal.
Well that's is another one I have not spotted,well done, there is still another one
Just like Compo when his trousers came apart ,

I only buy Bran and Porridge but remember vividly as a kid that they used to put all sorts of toys and puzzles in Cereal packets . There was always a big dustup between siblings to decide who got the gift , plus my parents always said we could not have it until the box was empty[ I believe now in hindsight this was a just a ploy to make us eat it ] . Do they still put gifts in Cereal packets or does that no longer happen??

Not happened for many a long year. I was aghast the other year to find they no longer put collector cards in packets of tea! And that can not be health and safety!!
I recall there used to be cardboard models of trains printed on the back of a cereal packet in the mid 1950s that you could cut out and assemble.Not sure if it was Weetabix or Scott's Porage Oats. Any one else recall those?
I tried to make them but was not allowed access to the scalpel which I now have which would have improved the quality of cut. My efforts were out of true as I also at that age had not understood the need for scoring card before folding.
