Government advice adverts

[Stigmundfreud]

I wonder how much money the Govt spend on their tv advice advertisements.

I ask this as occasionally I am up late watching ste tv on channels only people too lazy to turn over from watch. Living+1 for example.

3:30 in the morning and there has just been a few well produced NHS adverts. These adverts will have cost a tidy packet to produce and then to show on tv. The point is they are aimed at teenagers and the parents of teenagers. Its 3:30 am, its on a stty hidden sky channel, the target audience are in bed and probably never watch Living let alone at 3:30 in the morning.

Why is the govt wasting money in this way?

Those awake at 3:30 (or 2:30 since you are viewing +1) perhaps lack direction and as result the government are trying to inspire them into a new career?

TV adverts for public service jobs are often early hours stuff, they had some teaching ads at the same time previously. Maybe employing insomniacs is the latest fashion in minority pandering.

The airwaves are full of spin and lies. We got "justice is working in Gloucestershire" but to be accurate that can only refer to Claire Justice who works for a local radio station. If they have to tell us one thing via propaganda, it's because we already know the truth is another thing.
