Couldn't help but smile at what had to be a big mistake on the John Lewis stand at the Royal Norfolk Show yesterday. We watched the fashion show which was hugely cheesy with models wearing a number of different outfits and smiling inanely as they danced their way along the catwalk in some carefully choreographed moves.
When it came to the finale we were told that the last outfits would be a celebration of the coming Olympics, the Queen's Diamond Jubilee and Britain itself. The music they used was London Calling by The Clash. Last time I looked this song was about nuclear errors, police brutality, depravity in society and London being flooded. I think somebody had tried to be trendy and not worked out what the words meant. Perhaps Waterloo Sunset would have been a tad more appropriate.
I have written to John Lewis to point this out and will let you know if they reply.
