PPC in the Park TV ad banned!!!

The guys at PPC Magazine had put together a 30 second ad to run on Dave between Top Gear, Fifth Gear and all those other regurgitated blokey type shows. Then the authorities have banned it before it's had a showing.
To try and reduce kick in the plums (£7ks worth of advert!!), have a quick looksy and see what you think. The more folks who see the vid on youtube, the better!!

But more importantly, get yourselves along to laugh and point at my third attempt to finish the £999 challenge!!
Cheers, Owelly.

pretty outrageous that they can ban it on those grounds.

yet scaremongering on the same things is ok

hmm, i wonder though, was it really banned, or is putting it on youtube saying it was banned is a cheaper way to promote it?

it gets posted on car forums, and people watch it, get all riled up, and pass it on.

rubbish if it really was banned, genius if not

I'm going to wait a week then complain when I feel the bandwagon is big enough.

I may still go to the show though...

£7000 for THAT? They've been taken for a ride there, even looks like they've ripped the intro off google earth! (Note the framing errors in the first few seconds)

Hope they didn't pay £7k for that. I could have done it on Adobe Premiere for 1/7th of that..... Maybe paying for Google earth rights costs £6k....

That is called viral advertising. Cheaper than actually paying for advertising, make some tat for £4.50, stick it on youtube and start an internet scandal chinese whisper.

Still, should be a good day out.

I agree, there's no way that was made for TV. I think they are taking us for mugs!
