I just purchased a bag of pork scratching's and the bag has a picture of Martin Platt on it.

I thought he had gone into cheese making????

Perhaps David could buy a packet - it would be the first time he has seen his Dad in years!

I hope you didn't pay too much for them as they are on offer in B&M bargains.

Lancashire Sauce flavour crisps also available!

Bit of a marketing own goal that.
Last thing you wanna see on the packet of your Scratchings is a pic of a human lizard.

I got them in B&M.

They weren't very nice, so I won't be getting them again!

What would be funny is David Platt throwing pork scratchings with his dads face on the packet at his mum

He always struck me as a bit of a big-head, I also read somewhere that his neighbours dislike him. I guess putting a photo of himself on his own produce confirms that he thinks highly of himself.

Now that would be the best use of product placement. Ever.

I heard he was doing well in the cheese business, I guess it's good his found another avenue instead of being a unemployed actor.

He's only using his Corrie Fame to sell his product as he has a well known face. Makes good business sense. I don't think it's about ego.

I always see his cheese in B&M Bargains.

I've never tried it but it looks quite nice.
