In an article in last week’s Campaign on the BBC’s latest licensing
campaign, created by TBWA GGT Simons Palmer, we stated that the ads
would run on the BBC. The ads will, in fact, run on commercial televison
with a pounds 7.5 million spend.
In a separate story, we stated that Bacardi-Martini part-owned the
Gonzalez Byass company. We are happy to make clear that this is not the
case and that the UK distributor of Gonzalez Byass is First Drinks
Brands.
The feature on page 24 of the 16 October issue reported that ’Warman &
Bannister was a victim of the Docklands bomb in February 1996 which
forced the company out of its offices, leading to a loss of income,
although it did receive compensation from its insurers.’ Warman &
Bannister has asked us to point out that the resultant compensation was
not reflected in the table entitled ’Bottom ten by operating profit’. If
it had been included, the results would have improved by pounds
1,079,970.
