Why is Stephen Fry and Paul Merton's Direct Line Super SUMMER Saver Celebration still on? Despite the temperate weather it's not summer any more.

I wonder whether the ads started oop north and then spread. Being a Tyne Teeser I was well aware of their evilness but people up here seem to think they're a modern invention.

According to the bastion of lies that is Wikipedia, there have been over 500 TV and Radio ads for the company. *shudder*

They've certainly been going nearly that long in the Central West region. I'm beginning to wonder if Chie's TV is capable of receiving anything other than Stars In Their Eyes reruns on loop. :roll:

Autoglass Ads were filmed in Belgium and everything was backwards.
