In the video Reynolds jokes, “Wrexham fans have grown used to seeing me and other Rob together, but he’s not legally allowed to be in Aviation Gin commercials” before requesting Thomas to sing songs about Aviation Gin, preferably in Welsh. Reynolds and Thomas exchange banter behind the bar and clink glasses filled with an Aviation Gin cocktail.
