I don't seem can find its definition elsewhere, what is it?

Could it simply be a television commercial for the company called "Gap"?

Hi guys,

Could it simply be a television commercial for the company called "Gap"? Yes, it's quite a common term.

Best wishes, Clive

Maybe it's a silly thought, but could it be that you mean a 'commercial gap'. If this word order is used it means the interval of time in which the advertisements (the commercials) are shown between or during television programmes.

It was frequently used in the earlier days of television but much less so nowadays.
