The BBC used to go to ridiculous lengths with this. There used to be a kids show called Blue Peter where they would show you how to make things out of empty bottles and toilet roll tubes. They were not allowed to say 'sellotape' as that would have been advertising a specific brand, so they always called it 'sticky backed plastic'. Even as a 5-year-old I thought that sounded odd.
