When billboards were sent to display on the Underground, Gamble was told to alter the poster because it failed to comply with TFL advertising policy.
Comedian Ed Gamble has been forced to remove a picture of a hot dog from posters promoting his stand-up tour on the Tube network after it breached Transport for London’s advertising policy.
But when the billboards were sent to TfL for display on the Underground, Gamble was told to alter the poster because it failed to comply with the organisation’s advertising policy on featuring foods high in fat, sugar and salt. Gamble said: “I actually don’t have a problem with the TfL regulations, they make sense to me. But the new posters promote something way more harmful – the idea that cucumbers pair well with ketchup and mustard. I’m not sad to have to remove the hot dog, it was only featured on the poster because I wanted to eat during the photoshoot.
