It was 36 years ago that the British TV #TellSid advertising campaign prompted hundreds of thousands of people to buy shares in #BritishGas. The promotional campaign in 1986 featured TV adverts in which characters urged each other to tell Sid about the chance to buy shares at affordable prices. Following #BT, the privatisation of the state-owned business led to a new wave of first-time shareholders in the UK. Anyone who kept their British Gas shares now owns stakes in #Centrica, BG Group and #NationalGrid. • And, according to some estimates, 100 shares bought for £135 in 1986 could be worth around £3000 today. • ------------------------------------ • Copyright Disclaimer under Section 107 of the copyright act 1976, allowance is made for fair use for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, scholarship, and research.
