Grow your own drugs

Don't watch this normally but a friends partner was on this week testing one of the remedies.

What a con - they thought the remedy tasted disgusting and did no good whatsoever but had to 'pretend' to enjoy it -say it worked and then be filmed making some themself at home.

Another 'green' con by the BBC.

Really? Why did they agree to lie?

[redtwin]

Why did they go through with it then?.

It would weigh heavily on my mind if I went on national telly and deliberately lied or mislead the public.

[Vron]

I don't think the intention was to lie but felt they had to agree with the presenter & they are an 'extra' so felt they wouldn't get any more work.

[redtwin]

Ah, so it was for personal gain then.

A career in politics may be suitable should the television field not pan out.

I saw one of these when I was in the gym..

Seemed to revolve around various herbs and ste, soaked in vodka.

And hey presto it cures xxxx symptom.

I'm pretty bloody sure the vodka on its own would alleviate most symptoms, temporarily at least.

its a load of old bks, there was a really good article posted by someone on here about why these herbal things are a load of ste and the "it works for me", "ancient knowledge" and "its natural so it cant do any harm" arguments range from ignorant, to downright stupid and bordering on the potentially dangerous.

I'll have the drug that's been through a squillion labs and clinical trials, designed and tested by very clever men and women with lots of letters after their names.

Not some fking hippy.
