Recently we supported a members complaint about inappropriate advertising. The complaint was examined by the Ad Standards Community Panel who also sought the advertiser’s response to the complaint. The Panel acknowledged that some members of the community would be concerned with the advertisement but found that iyt was a legal advertisement. They also indicated that the placement of an advertisement is not covered by the Code. They also found that the use of a doll holding a knife was justifiable in the context of an advertisement for a horror movie.

Complaint dismissed – complainant_25072019_12 18 50 891 (1).
