BIG BROTHER GETS BOTTLED

In the summer of 2001 the UK's Channel 4 TV ran a second series of the hit programme Big Brother. A group of contestants moved in to a specially constructed house in East London where TV cameras captured their every movement, 24 hours a day.

The UK Dairy Council managed a fine piece of product placement by delivering several customised milk bottles to the Big Brother kitchen. Each featured their current advertising slogan 'The white stuff- are you made of it?'. Many thanks to them for providing the images.

 




 
MELTING MILK BOTTLES

Biggles made these (left) 'to amuse, or bemuse my milk man during a particulary hot summer.' Find out more about his milk bottle melter at his web site.



   
KATE'S DREAM OF MILK BOTTLES
She texted the following message to us in February-

'Last night I dreamt that gates had been built at the top of my road. The side supports were house high milk bottles and the top was a design of milk bottle shapes. Between the gates were bollards to stop cars. They were milk bottle shaped, filled with white liquid. All my neighbours were in the street, looking on and when I saw it I was shouting excitedly that it just showed how important milk bottles were becoming and Mr. Milk would be so happy.'
