Pete Andre for coffee...wake up OFCOM.
Caught the end of his prog last night, when are OFCOM going to step in and take action against what looked like a massive unpaid ad?
How many times did his management let it be known he was launching a coffee brand?
He can't just be on a diet it has to become a major feature leading to him 'innocently' naming the diet.
What was with him sitting at a table with others, but when he did the 'ad' he was on his own, but next shot the others are back.....looked like someone had said, 'Pete, you need to say this...'
Come on OFCOM bang him and his ex to rights....their game has been sussed....time to put an end to it, if only for the sake of the exploited children.

I missed it. Is the show repeated? I haven't watched his show at all this time.
What have OFCOM to do with someone discussing a forthcoming project on a TV show- happens all the time in case you didn`t know
It`s usually repeated during the week or available on Catch Up TV. Best episode yet - was really good
He didn't even seem to much like coffee as he kept wandering off to do anything else but taste coffee. If the Italian bloke had not have been with him, he would not have had a clue. The only coffee he seemed able to pass a comment on was the last one which he liked coz the server drew a face on the froth!
A very odd programme but yes it plugged the diet and plugged the coffee and so perhaps this series is just meant to be one big advertising revenue generation project (after the hotel feature last week)?
if it had his face on every sheet, id buy it.
PA is a coffee-holic - when he lived in Brighton I reckon Starbucks was his second home lol:p So I would imagine he is well able to tell a good from a not so good coffee Janet
And he was roadtesting the Caveman diet for Men`s Health mag - nothing wrong in mentioning that surely
Clearly you know nought about undue prominence and rules/guide lines regarding promotional chats.
This was not a chat it was supposed to be a 'documentary' which was made by Peter's management agents....the equivalent of a manufacturers corporate video about one it's products.
His ex is often referred to as brand 'Katie' and he is the same....let him and his agent buy advertising space like other brands....don't pretend it's some innocent idea.
Yes Powell would never do something as underhand as that would she:rolleyes:
From your own fingertips why OFCOM should step in and stop this blatant product placement.
How much was Peter being paid to be 'honest' in his views by Costa coffee and the men's mag and feature them infront of a TV audience?
As I pointed out he's talk about the diet was filmed seperately....wonder how many takes it took.
Maybe its because Powell kept interupting
I wonder what name Powell has advised her client to choose
Daddy's coffee?
For My Kids?
Pava?
Keep em coming
Shame his namesake is already a household name, Andre-x. One opportunity CAN cannot just jump on the bandwagon with.:D
I confess to not understanding advertising regulations, surely there would be people in the know, or even representatives of OFCOM who monitor programmes, and any blatant flouting of regulations would be dealt with, wouldnt they?
Calm down ...
What about on Katies show, when she's banging on about her books/new make up range/perfume/clothes blah blah...one and the same isnt it!!??!!
BITTER 'N TWISTED;)
It's on ITV2 so it'll be repeated and repeated so the advertising message gets pushed home.
Did I tell you about this fantastic diet I'm on, it's unlike any other diet.
I get paid for roadtesting it for a magazine who inturn are being paid to feature the diet and all I have to do is mention it on TV...all the extra pounds I might put on goes straight to the bank.
Which bit of "Brand Katie" or of the following did you miss?
Is this another little fibby wibby slipping out then? I thought all his weight loss was down to the orrible orrible divorce?:rolleyes:
If his show was on the BBC I could see why you'd be annoyed.
Or, you do like me and the majority of other tv viewers, and just don't watch.:D
not so sure what there is to get so het up about but eh
If people are that offended they can always do what i did..and not watch ? =no viewers=no new series
Obviously people are not offended by what they see because he received ratings of 1.1 million last week (highest rated show on ITV2) at the moment)
