I was struck last night to notice two successive TV ads, both of which featured black British men (Farah and L. Henry). Set me thinking about who endorses products. Mostly men. Apart from hair and beauty products I can only think of Jessica Ennis endorsing Santander.
Maureen Lipman years ago had a kind of acting role in the BT ads as did Jane Horrocks - was it Tesco, again an acting role. But celebrity endorsements... I am racking my brain. Seems there is a bias in this as in so many areas.
