It's even funnier in the USA. I have recently been on holiday there, and the adverts for medicines crack me up. They read out a horrendous list of possible side effects which would be enough to put any sane person off even thinking about it.
The best one I saw was an advert for insulin. Apparently if you have the symptoms of diabetes (listed at length at high speed) you should ask your doctor about prescribing you insulin! I'm hoping they would have thought to mention that one already!!!0 -
I once saw an USA advert for medicine where a possible side effect was death. It was for some power-up drug I believe.0
