Interesting, i contacted the creator of the show during Series 2 with the intention of getting a Ubuntu poster in the background. They said it wasn't out of the question, but Series 3 was not yet in the planning stage. I would imagine that the 'Highway' poster would be less than ideal, but one stating "Ubuntu, Linux for Human Beings" only would be a really good idea. We would need to speak to Canonical to get clearing for the logo, i can't imagine them saying No. So the next thing is getting a suitable sized poster. If it's just a plain poster, would should probably consider getting a run of at least 10 - as i know i'd certainly consider some. I've added this idea to the IdealsPool of the Wiki [0]. We should probably try and construct a suitable email to Ben. If we start this on the Wiki[1], we could all try and chime in with suggestions.
