     1   Q.   If we go back to the list of adverts:  I think that was a
     2        general theme of most of the ads.  This Happy Holiday
     3        skating advert, No. 12, ronald mcdonald, there were no
     4        adults in that advertisement, were there?
     5        A.  I think that there were, but I am not sure but
     6        I believe that there were older children.
     7
     8   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  They were older children.  They might have
     9        been, by my recollection, sort of 15 or 16 year-olds, but
    10        do you remember anyone older than that?
    11        A.  I am trying to remember -- again we would probably have
    12        to take a look at it -- but I do remember the older, 16, 17
    13        year-olds.
    14
    15   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Could someone tell me, did the tape have
    16        numbers on the bottom as it played, or does the machine
    17        have the usual numbers which come up, so it would be
    18        possible to mark particular ads which are mentioned by
    19        number from the beginning of the tape?
    20
    21   MR. RAMPTON:  There is a counter on the machine.
    22
    23   MR. MORRIS:  That was No. 12.
    24
    25   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.  What I am inviting you to do is not
    26        curtail your cross-examination, but if you have a list of
    27        particular ads, identify those before we adjourn this
    28        afternoon.  Questions like cross-examination, testing the
    29        quality of Mr. Green's answers, put over until tomorrow
    30        because we can actually show the ad then.
    31
    32   MR. MORRIS:  Yes.
    33
    34   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  But if you identify, for instance, No. 12,
    35        Happy Holidays, query, whether any adults are there, then
    36        leave the rest.  If you have some question about that, you
    37        can ask it in the morning when we find it.
    38
    39   MR. MORRIS:  Yes, except that I would prefer to put the question
    40        when I have alerted the witness to what the main point is,
    41        because I do not always put the question in that simple
    42        form.
    43
    44   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Identify the ads now.  Are you prepared?
    45        I think you should, I have to say, identify the ads by
    46        number and what they were.
    47
    48   MR. MORRIS:  I have found what the kissing the girl, the food
    49        kissing the girl one is, it is "Puppet Surprise", No. 20.
    50        I am just trying to have a look through to see the 
    51        important ones.  There is No. 27, Glowing Places, the blue 
    52        bags.  Is it all right, I think we can get through this 
    53        today if I can just ask simple questions each time.
    54
    55   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes, very well.  I think you should finish to
    56        finish asking your questions by ten past four, if you can.
    57
    58   MR. MORRIS:  Yes, I think we should be able to get through it
    59        because a lot of the themes run throughout.  Do you
    60        remember that advertisement?
