Day 046 - 04 Nov 94 - Page 52
1 I thought, if I may say so, that sentence, as one would
2 strictly read it, has already been modified both by
3 Mr. Hawkes and by Mr. Green, because you are both only too
4 happy if children do encourage their parents to come to
5 McDonald's. All you are saying, as I understand it, in
6 that sentence, you do not actually have an ad which shows a
7 child asking their parents to go to McDonald's?
8 A. That is correct.
9
10 MS. STEEL: Right. Again, it is something that I will leave
11 that for now.
12
13 I just wanted to go back to the Hamburglar. I think there
14 was a thing that said that "no one expects payment"; is
15 that right?
16 A. Yes.
17
18 Q. In terms of the Hamburglar. Do you ever show money in
19 McDonaldland?
20 A. I cannot remember a case where we did.
21
22 Q. You do not think you do?
23 A. No, I do not believe we do.
24
25 MS. STEEL: Right, okay. I just wanted to show a video at this
26 point.
27
28 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Can we arrange that? Can you help again?
29
30 THE WITNESS: I would be glad to.
31
32 (The video recording was shown)
33
34 MS. STEEL: Do you know who that man was?
35 A. Barry -- maybe you could help me out?
36
37 Q. No. I do not know.
38 A. He was well before my time. I am trying to remember
39 his name. I am not sure whether -- he may have worked for
40 the advertising agency. He looks familiar. I cannot tell
41 you exactly.
42
43 MR. JUSTICE BELL: When did he leave, or when did he stop----
44 A. This was well before my time.
45
46 Q. So more than 20 years ago?
47 A. Yes.
48
49 MS. STEEL: What is this a shot of?
50 A. In the earlier commercials, this would have been a
51 ronald mcdonaldland set.
52
53 MS. STEEL: Right. So this is McDonaldland?
54
55 MR. RAMPTON: Was.
56
57 THE WITNESS: Yes. I think this looks like what was shot in
58 the early -- in the late 60s, early 70s.
59
60 MS. STEEL: So is it vastly different now?
