Now before anyone starts, this is not about the quality or merits etc of the programme called the Apprentice. It's all about the very good product placement that I have seen tonight.
A Beocom 2 at the beginning, a pair of Beolab 9's connected to a Beosound 5 and best of all this weeks briefing on a silver Beovision 11.
End result is that within an hour of the show, I have had 2 cabin crew asking about the phone and a bloke asking about the TV through Facebook etc.
Whoever is responsible, be it somebody at B&O or a closet Beoworlder on the production team, the word is getting out.
At last.
Pps again this is not about the programme!
Beosound Stage, Beovision 8-40, Beolit 20, Beosound Explore.
Agree, product placement is the way forward for B&O

You think?
there has been a lot of product in the apprentice for a least five years. All the products mentioned in the Op have already been in this series and only people on here will have noticed them.
Chris Townsend:The point is that people who know me and what i own, have been now asking where they can get the items and what is the brand all about.
I understand that. But is this just tonight? Because it was quite a B&O light episode compared to the last five years. So if it is I don't understand he sudden interest.
The first B&O product placement I recall was on friends
I googled the subject and

There was also this much longer thread:
B&O in movies

Does it not annoy you though that there's a "voiceover" of the ringtone on the BeoCom 2 ? It sounds awful...
Also (being geeky) the cable management on the BeoVision 10 in the lounge was shocking, and the BeoSound 5 on the floor stand was at an awful angle!
Good that someone is making good use of product placement though. That, in my opinion, is the way forward..

It's like the Alfa Giulietta on the BBC drama "Frankie". where they changed the locking remote noise and the Blue and Me Bluetooth is not used as it does not fit in the story.
