Pat I think I'm unembarrassable really but really hope my mum hasn't seen it! I don't see the point because it's a medical problem for which someone would go to the doctors I would have thought?

I forgot about the Pele one............ I don't think it is a generation thing Pat.........both my daughter and I yelled WHAT and burst out laughing when we saw these adverts. I know that some of the european countries have far more explicit adverts than we do, I just hope that our advertising standards aren't heading that way.

Yes agree David that is the best place a Doctor's. Yes Pele Is probably the greatest footballer of our time :-))) But of course he played for Brazil not England :-( I saw that a while back Maz. Pat x

Pele did an info/ad that was him talking to camera about men's erection problems..........a bit surreal. I suppose he was the idol of the generation most likely to be having problems now.

Roxanne - thank god you're ok... I had visions of visiting you in hospital as you lay in a coma unable to come out of it until I scoffed 10 family-size bars of chocolate!

On behalf of scaffolders everywhere, why shouldn't there be a TV ad to help them sort out their problems? CB >|< ;>))) P S The only reason Bendy was shocked was because I noticed David's spelling mistake. Obviously I should drink more ... and more often!

pmsl Lucy CB - I knew it must be something like that to shock Bendy;)

Thank god Roxanne! Your demise at my refusal to eat chocolate would bring a new meaning to the phrase 'Death by chocolate'....

David I saw this the other day (the ad I mean!) during Desperate Housewives! Was watching with my husband and my 19 year old daughter and 17 year old son. The room was deathly quiet - an embarrassed silence. 'Too much information' is perhaps the category for this ad! Daisy

I keep getting e-mails for large erections.Send off and all you get is some pills.Do you have to stick them together and build it yourself? It was the same a few years ago,all over the cinema it said'Free Willy'.All you ever got was to see a film about a whale.I don't believe any of them anymore.
