		| Clearcast reportedly banned the ad from TV broadcast because it didn’t comply with the political rules in the Broadcast Code of Advertising Practice. |

			Yeah, I’m quite certain when they asked Greenpeace to make them a campaigning advert they had absolutely no idea it might get banned, and never for one second imagined it might go viral as a result.  Their flabber must have been well and truly gasted.
