Has anyone else seen the billboard ads for the Sky adaption of The Take?

Urgh! It looks so . . . so . . . sleazy! Especially considering how slick her jacket designs are!

If someone did that to my book I would cry!

    Not seen it Stirling, but often these billboards aren't in the easiest places to see if you are a pedestrian.

    Perhaps I should add that there is not one I can think of in Nottingham city centre, they're in smaller towns and the ring road.

    If it's anything like the ads they're running on Sky at the mo, Stirling, I can see what you mean.

    Nor entirely unrelated is this blog by C S Harris (Candice Proctor). Go down to the May 29th entry - 'of Heaven and Hell' and read of how distraught she was at the visions that her publisher had for her work.

    I think I can get an image from google.

    I know I was a little girl in the eighties; but I don't remember it being like this!

    Not the poster; but the same image.

    The guy on the left image wise is okay for the 80's but the others... Mind you if the one in the red is trying to do a young Madonna imitation...
    What sort of wording was there on the billboard Stirling?
