Seems in very bad taste to have adverts of Di in her underwear on anniversary of her death...

[Eric Mc]

I'd have thought he would have a fairly neutral view on this topic.

Erm its not Diana.......

[Rude-boy]

Bad taste – Possibly

About to get sued by the DPoW Foundation (or whatever their name is) – unlikely unless the goods are ever sold outside PRC due to their totally nonexistent copyright, etc laws.

Measuring on my give-a-st-ometer? – Nope.

[Mr E Driver]

It is
No one


The only Noone is a well known singer of Herman's Hermits

[Snoggledog]

Their website seems to be down which is a pity. Also their web domain address is registered in Glasgow

[Eric Mc]

They should re-release "Diana" by Paul Anka.

Not the worst case scenario.

Imagine the 'poor taste' if they pictured her in her 'Birthday Suit' on the anniversary of her death.

At least these guys drew line

I'm sure anyone who uses an image of Einstein are also carefully to ensure it doesn't clash with the anniversary of his death, save for upsetting any relatives.

At least the images of Einstein are actually him though.

Only the handwringers who buy Diana souvenir plates from the back of the Sunday rag mags for 3 easy installments of £39.95, eh.

Why has no-one gone mental? A number of reasons.

No that would be the Diana dildo with packaging that read 'Royally fk yourself with this true latex likeness of Dodi's dong. Available in realistic flesh colour or authentic Obsidian Black'

[herewego]

Is that august publication suggesting that the picture they've published shouldn't be published?

[Engineer1]

Because few people give a flying fk outside of the mail, mirror and express.

I cant open the link

shouldn't that August publication be a September one now




(saw a picture today of an advert in China for a rather sweet undie set... not fussed or impressed, then again I don't wear rather sweet undies)

The picture I saw was in the Excess

edit for some kind of accuracy

"The apparent attempt to exploit the princess's image is the latest example of how firms around the world have sought to capitalise on her popularity and glamour."

Would that include the Daily Mail?
