Now that the new lot have their feet firmly under the table, the onslaught of government sponsored advertising on the telly appears to have started again.
I've been watching Channel 4 and ITV for the past couple of hours and saw one for Barnardo's and one to remind you to renew your Tax Credits. And one for a state-owned bank, Halifax, in which a woman drops a cup of coffee, an idea which they might have pinched from the Microsoft advertisement, in which a woman knocks over a cup of coffee.
All links to TellyAds.com, who don't appear to have the up-to-date Tax Credits propaganda - so I linked to the more repulsive of the two available. Thanks to Pavlov's Cat for alerting us to this most useful resource.
While I'm on the topic, here's my favourite ad of recent months: Am I dead? No, you're in Frinton-on-Sea.

another good resource... tvadmusic.co.uk. If you want to find out a song in an ad, you can.
Personally, I like the Adidas Cantina ad, especially Snoop Dogg's bit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Zd_khk6zXo
=JT, ho hum. I tried "Sonic Boom Boy" (the Sony advert) and it said 'removed due to copyright violation' or somesuch nonsense.
You're welcome, thanks for the nod.
Have to say the Princess and Pea is still current fav.
As for your one
Am I dead? No, you're in Frinton-on-Sea.
My inner voice always shouts "What's the difference?" at the screen
It could be that government sponsored advertising will dry up with public sector cuts.
DBC, no it was shut down during general election but in the past couple of weeks has kicked off again. Basically, Labour have left the Lib-Cons with only one course of action, which is to keep going in the same direction.
