I'm trying to identify the name of a London based Advertising Agency run by Managing Director Nicholas Kay or Kaye.
When Mr Kay or Kaye retired in 1970s he relocated to the Caribbean. He knew a number of celebrities who did advertising work, one was Jeremy Lloyd.
Would very much like to know the name of his advertising agency as a relative of mine was an employee there.
(My relative always remembered seeing Jeremy Lloyd in the advertising agency office).

It might be worth getting a second hand copy of Lloyd's autobiography "Listen Very Carefully, I Shall Say This Only Once (https://www.amazon.com/Listen-Very-Carefully-Shall-This/dp/0563362030)" in case he mentions his connections with the agency or with Kay himself.

Yes good idea. (Also have a few mentions of Jimmy Perry, David Croft, Dad's army actors, Una Stubbs and Ringo Starr doing advertising work. Also mentioned is the old Sugar Puffs breakfast brand. So some clues to go on.)
