Has anyone seen the long adverts on TV about the tube. It features loads of
people saying stuff like We Love (heart) the Movies and then at the it says
we Love (heart) london. Then it says we (underground roundel) london.
Couldnt this money be better spent on improving the service or prehaps one
that makes you want to travel by tube by comparing it with traffic jams or
saying how nice (yeah right!) it is

Thinking about it. A system they claim to be overstretched and too many
people using it already. It seems a bit strange to advertise and
encourage people to use it.......

I don't think any of the adverts encourage people to use the tube to get to
work. Instead they are targetting Sunday and other off-peak hours.


I was vaguely amused by the "You love a sunday service" one :-)

I think the money for advertising should go on hospitals.

Why do hospitals need to advertise?

Presumably so that the sick and injured can make informed choices about
which is the most suitable institution for their needs.

How about using the income to keep the TfL Routemaster refurbishment
programme going........That would allow thousands of Citizens to keep fit by
jumping on/off the Rooties platform in perpetuiity
