Sequels and Remixes
On 30 March 2008, Cadbury began rolling out the sequel to the Gorilla campaign. Using many of the same ideas, Airport Trucks, again written and directed by Juan Cabral, features heavily customised airport ground support equipment racing at night to Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now".
On 5 September 2008, a second Gorilla advertisement, featuring Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart", was broadcast on Channel 4 during the Big Brother 9 final. The new version paid homage to the internet mash-up artist who remixed the original with Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart". This advert was immediately followed by a version of Airport Trucks with Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Prayer". In mid March 2009, a version of the advert was shown in Australia, with the gorilla playing the drums along to John Farnham's "You're the Voice". This version of the ad was heavily criticised by the Australian public because it was seen as an inferior copy of the original and tried to make use of a potential resurgence of John Farnham due to the singer being mentioned in Cold Play concerts at the time.
In January 2009, a new advert for Cadbury Dairy Milk was launched featuring dancing eyebrows.
September 2009 saw the move to Fairtrade cocoa beans in Cadbury's Dairy Milk, and a new record label based on Gorilla's campaign ("A Glass and a Half") saw the advert/song Zingolo.
