The Moro Man – Cadbury Moro Bar
Commercial (Full Length) – 1969
...he appeared on television in his role as a DSIR scientist showing traffic officers how to use the breathalyser. But when the programme [Town and Around] went to a commercial break the first face that popped up was Henwood's, this time advertising a Moro chocolate bar. His boss at the DSIR told him it really wasn't a good look. So a year later he quit his job and went freelance as an actor.– Dominion Post profile of Ray Henwood, by Bess Manson, August 2016
...the exposure that gave me was massive. It was my first experience of being stopped by people outside Wellington. People would wave to me before they realised they didn't know me. I'd been in their living rooms.– Ray Henwood on the fame of being the Moro Man, The Wellingtonian, May 2009
