[QUOTE="Syd, post: 704382, member: 92896"] [USER=66676]@ConradJ[/USER] " How has Diabetes UK offended anyone by the this advert?" Is the question I am struggling with. The ad lasted one minute and as mentioned above showed three cases. To recap: (1). Portly chap who had lost his leg; (2). A svelte, trim young lady who was going blind; (3). A chap who had died and we heard from his widow. In only ONE out of the THREE cases above is being overweight specifically attributed as cause of T2. That is case (1) above. Case (2) does not seem overweight and we did not get to hear about why or how Case (3) contracted his T2. I just don't get what is wrong with it. As mentioned above it is a one minute ad, not a documentary series. [/QUOTE]
