Its quite good in that respect, call FRANK and then hopefully they can be persuaded from not doing drugs by an advisor.

The agency know any ad wont stop this market doing drugs.

very clever strategy</description></item><item><title>Re: Is Frank's dead dog ad a hit or a miss?</title><link>http://community.brandrepublic.com/forums/thread/33911.aspx</link><pubDate>Mon, 15 Dec 2008 17:59:14 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">0f8ed6bf-041d-4f2c-bb76-9560b958a575:33911</guid><dc:creator>shib hussain</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://community.brandrepublic.com/forums/thread/33911.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://community.brandrepublic.com/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=103&amp;PostID=33911</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#39;s a good ad to look at....but come on, that isnt going to stop anyone from doing drugs! &lt;/p&gt;
