Backdoor or Accidental product mention in an old Dr Who

Being an ardent Dr Who fan, particularly of the old serial version I just came across what could have been an accidental mention of a product, but I doubt it was accidental. Probably it was a writer having some fun. I'll hold back on the specifics for a bit to see if anyone else has noticed this. As a hint I will say in was a line by the sixth Doctor (Colin Baker, in the older series) and that it occurs at the very end of a story.

Anyone?

The answer is: Near the very end of the story called "Vengeance on Varos," and referring to the slimeball character called "Sil," the Doctor says to Perri, "He needs more than water, Perri, eh""

Truly groan-worthy!
