9 Things to Know This Week (15 April)
  1. There have been mixed feelings about “the kiss of death” TV ad. The ad features two young people who meet at a party, fall in love and each time they are about to kiss are interrupted. They then get into a car with 2 other people. Everyone expect the young man buckles up. An accident is portrayed in slow motion. The young man is flung from his seat, smashes into the lips of the young girl he’s fallen far and with that kiss, kills her. The punchline: An unbuckled passenger can kill and “No seatbelt, No Excuse”. It’s a shocking clip, which debuted just before the Easter weekend.
