Chanel made this film about Marilyn Monroe and the brand around the same time that the Brad Pitt 'vacant staring' campaign came out. Why on earth they released Brad's ad over some version of this Marilyn thing, which is brilliant, boggles my mind http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wo8UtWiYiZI

Surprising that Thorntons is listed, given the recent reporting of its poor performance. Do people still like the brand, even though they clearly aren't buying their treats there? Perhaps this shows that with the right investment things could pick up again for them...

Hate seeing news like this about the midlands - compared to the north (and London, obviously) it seems to be an area that is always struggling, underinvested.
