Royal Wedding is Jono and Dano’s cup of tea

QANTAS may have to put on a whole jumbo or at least extend business and first class just to accommodate the growing contingent of Radio personalities heading to London for the Royal Wedding. Latest to pack their formal clobber is the Jono and Dano show who will be broadcasting from a Twining Tea Shop.

Its all part of a clever “Twinings Australian Afternoon Tea” promotion to choose the top five blends.  The pair will be setting up a studio at the original Twining Tea Shop at 216 The Strand in London, to broadcast The Jono & Dano Show live around Australia from April 27 to 29.

And whilst they may not have landed an official invitation to the wedding of HRH Prince William and Miss Kate Middleton, the boys say, “Since the Royal Family have appointed Twining for their Tea and Stephen Twining has appointed us for this visit to pick the Aussie blend, we reckon this is a good enough tenuous connection for us to get a front row seat at the nuptials and all the action around it”.

During the trip Jono & Dano will be joined by tenth generation member of the famed tea legacy, Stephen H.B Twining, and will have the honour of choosing the top five blends from all the celebrity entries in the Twinings Australian Afternoon Tea competition including submissions from Kevin Rudd, Kristy Hinze, John Williamson, Mike Munro, Layne Beachley, Peter Morrissey, Charlie Brown, Kerri-Anne Kennerly, Leo Sayer and Diesel. These five finalist blends will then be made available for the public to taste, who will then cast their vote for the definitive blend for the country.
