I was watching the ads in a break of the extended Channel 4 News- and noticed how many of them show people in close proximity to one another in social situations- eating meals en famille or in restaurants, joshing about in offices, playing team sports. Already they're beginning to look like glimpses of a vanished world. I wonder if the companies will pull them, or continue running them at the risk of seeming annoyingly out of touch?
