Damian replies that it means that advertising becomes a part of people’s everyday routine.

He claims “where there’s muck, there’s brass.” Stuart Ridley-Thomas, Chairman of the Public Health Committee for the South Norfolk District Council, is interviewed. He talks about when the idea was put forward to the council and how after a lot of careful consideration they gave it the go ahead.
