Is it a Mistake or a Marketing?

While showing highlights from Saturday’s League Two clash between Torquay and Chesterfield at 12:50 am last night, the video inexplicably cuts to a scene from the surfer girl flick Blue Crush just as Kate Bosworth sits down on a toilet (0:42 into the video above). After 38 seconds of mind-bending fetishistic randomness, they then cut back to highlights of a different game: Port Vale v Rochdale.

A spokesman for the BBC said it was a “technical hitch,” but in a world of viral marketing and whatever it takes for television ratings, you have to wonder if this was a ploy from the BBC to get the word out on their new show. After all — everyone knows blonde girls on toilets is the key to a ratings bonanza.

So mistake or marketing, how will we know? Well, the copyright on the clip above is obviously owned by the BBC. If they decide to pull it from YouTube, then it was probably an embarrassing mistake. If it was a ploy, then it will remain, allowing for word of mouth to spread.

This is one of Uncle Salabam's treasure that he got from Dirty Tackle Island.
