Can you read Cantonese Watchkeeper?

No, but "lemon chicken with fried rice" gets me what I want.

The image shows it's in English, with an English presenter whom you may recognise. I doubt he speaks Cantonese, either ...

Mark Whitehouse, of TV Licensing PR contractor Clarke Associates, is a shrinking violet Watchkeeper, as you know!

Here's some of his work, so he's obviously not shy:

Yes. I'm sure Mr Whitehouse was introduced by name at the presentation so that datum is in the public domain.

If you look at the image published online:

you'll see the name Mark Binnersley associated with it. Mark Binnersley is Account Manager at Clarke Associates UK Ltd, but his likeness is nothing like the one in the image mentioned above:

Mark Whitehouse, however, fits the bill:

Something fishy going on here, as ever with PR types.
