Lingerie Adverts On The Tube

It was always said in the 1960s and before, that lingerie adverts were put on the Underground escalators, as because people were passing them at speed, they couldn’t write anything on them.

Then a few years later, certain women, thought the adverts were degrading and started putting stickers on them.

And then, yesterday I was ascending in Bond Street station, where a large number of copies of the same woman on video screens, was showing off her Marks & Spencer’s bra.

I suppose because the video lasted only a few seconds before changing to something else, this stopped them being defaced.
