The Hard Sell #188 - Have a Break: May 1st 1986
Advertising: the rattling of a stick in a swill-bucket? Welcome to the show where the stick rattles back: The Hard Sell. Adverts from history, treated with the respect they deserve. This episode: as random a commercial break as they come: Channel Four on the 1st of May 1986 (in Scotland, not that it makes a difference), prior to a Thatcher apologist on Right to Reply. The adverts are about as exciting as you'd expect. Saucepans! Garden furniture! Λesthetic! http://www.bobthefish.org.uk / applemask
