The advert with the NatWest staff going out of their way to return a lost scarf is truly the most annoying thing i have seen in along time. A pathetic attempt to portray the banking industry as nice, they would not give a toss about someones poxy scarf and the greedy fuckers would probably sell it anyway.
^ You really hope these channels get particularly negative feedback about these promos and they pass them on to the manufacturer in question with a "Please can you make your ads less annoyingly shit as it's putting people off watching our channel!"
Then again the marketing execs (polite term) would probably see that as a success in that their product has been 'recognised'.
