More tube advertising?

I popped in there today. I noted that announcements in the escalator area (welcome, safety, etc.) referred to Warburton. Even with my poor hearing, I found them relatively clear. I have no idea if the voice was a computer one or real human, and if the latter whether pre-recorded or live. It was an American accent.

I also noted that, like the Bakerl0.0 campaign a few weeks ago, as far as I can tell all the proper roundels are still in place and unobstructed. The novelty name signs are in poster spaces so technically are 'just adverts' (albeit I think line diagrams and that kind of thing rather than another insurance or makeup company).

Iirc It's Morgan Freeman. I can vaguely remember seeing a Metro article about it but didn't click it because of the wall of ads and videos that insist on playing but that's a topic for another thread.

There seemed to be another advertising campaign at the same time at Waterloo for NB trainers. They have taken over the former ticket offices while the (as far as I’m aware) Bakerloo line platforms have been rebranded.
