+I CAN'T REMEMBER HOW MANY TIMES I HAD TO THROW JUNK INTO THE WATER AND OUT OF A CAR: STUFF MYSELF WITH HAMBURGERS AND HOTDOGS, OR SPIT IN FRONT OF THE FILM CREW, BEFORE THE DIRECTOR NODDED HIS HEAD, HE EXPLAINED.

DURING THE SHOOTING OF THE +VEHICLE LITTERING+ FILM, FOR EXAMPLE, PAUL HAD TO CONSUME MORE THAN A DOZEN HAMBURGERS WITHIN A SHORT TIME, AND THAT WAS ENOUGH TO KEEP HIM OFF HAMBURGER$ FOR A YEAR!

BUT THE WORST WAS NOT OVER.

+AFTER THESE FILMS WERE PUT ON AIR. HE CONTINUED +MANY TIMES I WAS SPOTTED BY CHILDREN AT MTR STATIONS, AND THEY KEPT FOLLOWING ME, CALLING ME LAP SAP CHUNG AND LAUGHING AT MY BAD HABITS, HE CONFESSED.

+ACTUALLY, I DON'T MIND BEING TEASED, BECAUSE THIS MEANS THAT THE MESSAGE HAS WASHED DOWN WELL AND THE FILMS ARE EFFECTIVE,+ PAUL ADDED GOOD HUMOUREDLY.

+ IF I SUCCEED IN MAKING SOME PEOPLE THINK TWICE BEFORE THEY DROP A PIECE OF LITTER OR SPIT IN PUBLIC, THEN MY EFFORTS ARE NOT WASTED.+
