The BBC

Client: “We would like our commercial to run on BBC1.”

Me: “The BBC are not a commercial organisation.  They don’t run ads.”

Client: “Well you are supposed to be the big media-man, you need to get us on BBC1!”

Me: “No one can run commercials on the BBC, they don’t show commercials.”

Client: “So we can totally own the BBC if there are no other advertisers!  This is going to be great.”

Me: “No. It’s not.”
