Public display of obsession by BBC Creative
- Location:
A new Killing Eve II marketing campaign, made by the BBC’s in-house creative team BBC Creative, takes obsessive behaviour to a new level.
The campaign sees MI6 agent Eve Polastri and psychopathic assassin Villanelle resume their game of cat and mouse through ‘Public Displays of Obsession’ that audiences can now see all around the country on posters, BBC radio and social media.
Alongside the ominous hashtag, ‘#Crazy4Eve’, Villanelle will bombard BBC Radio 1 with song requests for Eve, with the two writing back and forth to one another on billboards. Fans are invited to find all of Villanelle’s billboards across the UK, share their photographs online and of course — call Eve’s voicemail on 07788 387000 themselves.
Audiences will even witness Villanelle having a Twitter meltdown as she frantically looks for her “girlfriend” Eve, exceeding the maximum number of tweets allowed and being locked out of her account.
