611 I Like Competitions Because ...


First  viewed  :  21  June  1983

This  was  an  ITV  documentary  about  those  competitions  in  magazines  which  trawled  the  public  for  advertising  slogans. What  struck  me  was  that  some  people  were  almost  making  a  living  from  entering  them . I  remember  footage  of  a  couple  with  a  roomful  of  prizes  and  something else  was  being  delivered  while  the  cameras  were  rolling  although  the  more  cynical  me  of  today  realises  that  was  probably  a  set-up.
