Simpsons do Madmen
Over the Xmas hols my wife and I watched Madmen. Not just an episode or two either. We watched series one and two, back to back. Which worked out to be 26 episodes over ten days. Outstanding viewing.

Now you will have to suffer with the rest of us as we wait for the next season. Isn't Mad Men delicious? Makes me yearn to have been an ad MAN back in the day. They had it made.
Or I would be happy to come back as anyone of Don Drapers women.
Oh, dear. Before you know it you will be blogging and using Twitter.
My first agency job was in a time capsule from the early days.
I always called the agency founders Mr Brown and Mr Christensen.
Not that that was their names.
Mr Brown was an Art Director by trade. His office was wood paneled and he like to work standing at a drawing board that was concealed by a matching wood paneled surround.
With his three piece pinstripe suit and cigar smoke being cut by the god light through the venetian blinds he was formidable. Like a judge.
He used to bark demands for transparencies or bromides down the desktop Plessey intercom system.
Immaculately turned out secretaries would type out copy and proof read it together in one of the sexiest rituals I had ever seen in my young life.
They sold to DDB.I met Bill Bernbach's son. He had an outrageous tan. Like George Hamilton. Cant remember anything else about him.
They bought the agency back a couple of years later. But not before I purloined a book of VW ads that was part of the indoctrination.
Classic story David. I remember in my first job I was a bit hit with the Copy Typists, because they could actually read my writing!
@David, somehow you just made women typing actually sound sexy.
