Appreciate the humour but it does raise interesting
problems on the rare occasions when shooting is covered
on TV (thinking of the Olympics and next Commonwealth
games). Specifically in relation to product placement or
clothing. Where would we stand if another SuperCooper
emerges and is interviewed wearing a shooting promotional
T shirt, decals on the weapon or even gives one of the
organisations a plug.
If I've thought of it you can bet your life there's a
hoplophobe out there sharpening his writs as we speak.

Actually with the increasing number of channels the
cost of advertising is falling, but anyway I cannot
see how the Broadcasting Act could prevent ads on
a non-domestic channel like some of the sports channels
that are broadcast from Germany.
