ME/CFS on 'This Morning' - UK TV

[charles shepherd]

MEA writes to 'This Morning' to complain about inaccurate information on prognosis that was given by the programme's 'Agony Aunt' today:

Can you tell us where we can see the clip (or a transcript)?

This April 17th episode of "This Morning" is available to view on the ITV player for the next 7 days:

Not sure if this can be viewed outside the UK. I tried to look at it, but it forces you to watch the ads, so I lost patience.

Thanks @charles shepherd for telling us about this and for the ME Association in tackling the issue. So important to get these messages corrected and in time it ought to stop a lot of the misinformation before it starts.

It forces you to watch the ads in the UK as well. We pay a TV licence (no really, we do; I'm not making that up) but that only covers the BBC and so we get no ads on BBC channels but ads on the others, like ITV.

I think the full programme is on ITV iplayer but I haven't got time to try and find it. No doubt someone will before long…..
