I particularly liked 8 and 15, but didn’t have any problems with any of them myself, how about you.?

Somehow these had passed me by so thanks, I don’t think this covers to which you refer though, A & M which had also passed me by until the “Humour” thread. Must get out more.

It is not unknown for an agency to launch a campaign knowing that it will be objected to. By the time the process has run there will be all the normal exposure and the added PR from its ‘banning’.

Or, to describe this in three words, “Shepherd Neame – Spitfire”. I’m sure you all know what I mean…

Particularly for ‘youth’ brands an element of kicking against ‘The Establishment’ is not unwelcome.

Generally “any publicity is good publicity” is a truism, I imagine.

When the findings are for the complaint, the agency apologises and promises never to run that campaign again.

None at all with most and some were very amusing but we know how little sense of humour our “thought police” possess!!;)
