A Facebook group has been set up to urge Oxo to show its old ad featuring Lynda Bellingham over the Christmas period.

Bellingham, who passed away earlier this week, was the face of a series of popular Oxo ads.

Tina Burrell set up the Facebook group following a comment which had been made by 66-year-old Bellingham before her death, saying she wanted to spend one more Christmas with her family.

The group so far has over 6,500 members, a figure achieved after the group was mentioned on TV show Loose Women, which Bellingham used to contribute to.
