Ed Gamble: Why TfL made the comedian change his tube ad
Comedian Ed Gamble has swapped a hot dog for a cucumber in his adverts on London's Underground network.
The podcast host used the fast-food item in an advert for his stand-up tour Hot Diggity Dog.
Transport for London (TfL) does not allow foods high in fat, sugar and salt to be advertised on its network.
A spokesperson for TfL said: "Following a review of the advert, we advised that elements would need to be removed to ensure it complied with our policy."
