The dramatic sequence was concluded with Michael Heseltine uttering the slogan: 'Backwards or forwards, because we can't...

How delightfully...uh....gross. To communicate the idea that "you don't have to be there to see all the details" for ESPN, Saatchi and Saatchi in Singapore sent out 'eyeballs' as a DM piece. No, I really, mean balls as eyes here. Balls! There was a basketball, a baseball and even a football - and that bright red bloodshot football eye is pretty much how my eyes feel after watching supersonic Russian...

We haven't heard much from Charles Saatchi for... it must be several weeks now. Well, he is back with a purpose. He has a fancy new gallery in Chelsea opening soon that needs a successful launch so you'll be hearing from him frequently in the coming months.

Saatchi and Saatchi, Stockholm has done an almost global commercial for Sony Ericsson which will be aired in "twenty to thirty" different countries. In the ad, several people sing Depeche Mode's song "enjoy the silence", and it's the first time this song has been used in an advertisment. The most interesting feature of this mood-ad is that there's a transvestite in it. At least I think this lass is...

It's a great mystery. You'll recall that last summer the Labour Party announced - with some glee - that they'd recruited the advertising agency Saatchi and Saatchi to work on the next election campaign.
