I think he's just seen that Nell McAndrew ad...

what would scooby do

Advertising does work, if you think advertising's aim is to program you to go buy xyz product then you are *greatly* mistaken, its much more subtle than that.. and it's all about brand awareness and value.

Adverts are mainly little mini pieces of very creative work - mind you some are utter cr4p !!

Derren is god - fantastic show

The Lea & Perrins ad worked on me, I now always add Worcester sauce to my spag bol, tastes really good. So from never buying WS, I now buy a jar every fortnight or so.

I can't eat cheese on toast without WS, so I agree it does work

The guy who is in Nell's Bed in that Ad - I know him Bastid!!
