The BBC won't roll out the redcarpet for the product placement spivs butif you know...

The BBC won't roll out the red
carpet for the product placement spivs but
if you know someone on the inside, then you've got a foot in the door -
thanks, Debbie! OK. And you can tiptoe through into a whole world of commercial
opportunity. The BBC is a much-cherished
institution, known by some simply as Auntie Beeb. But thanks to certain presenters,
she's the kind of auntie that answers the door wearing
lipstick and a dressing gown! So, how does it work? Let's say Julia Bradbury is being
filmed looking at some geese. Fine! But what if Julia wants to take a
gander using an Orion Super Compact spotting
scope?
