Legacy

The '96 Pugilist Mix of the Felix song "Don't You Want Me" features samples of the Tango advert. An earlier unreleased and unfinished version of the mix features in the advert.

In 1997, Tango started a campaign called 'Vote Orange Tango' which featured Ray Gardner. The advert featured four flavours of Tango competing in an "election". The advert showed a man talking about the four flavours of the drink, and before encouraging the audience 'Vote Orange Tango'. He adds negative remarks about the apple, blackcurrant and lemon flavours, before walking to the top of a building where the character of Ray Gardner (played by a different person) is still shown expressing his anger, before falling, tired, into a puddle. The man criticises "Blackcurrant Tango" as "stinky wind".

Another, loosely related Tango advert shows Ray Gardner advertising a competition to win television sets, sporting the same uniform as in the start of St George and Ray appeared in an advert for Orange Tango encouraging a colleague at an event where clowns were being run over by giant trucks.
