The ad uses an extract of Richard Burton's famous reading of Dylan Thomas's 'Under Milk Wood'.
...which was recorded in 1954, and thus is out of copyright. Which explains why a BBC play is being used in an advert when normally that wouldn't be allowed.
The play was re-recorded for radio by the BBC in 1963 and includes passages omitted from the 1954 original.

You can listen to the full version of "Under Milk Wood - A Play for Voices" here...
