Tonight, BBC2 8pm. Documentary re drug companies

[Orla]

It looks like there is an interesting documentary going to be on BBC 2 tonight. Billion Dollar Deals and How they changed the world.

This is going to look at drug companies and marketing of drugs.

It might be interesting. It is by Jacques Peretti who does interesting and easy to watch documentaries.

I watched this, absolutely brilliant. That guy is a really good documentary maker, when he exposed the World Health Organisation for the farce it is caused big stirs in Parliment.

It really does show you how pharma companies moulded 21st century medicine into a cash cow of dosing.

Agreed. Excellent stuff - UK people with thyroid problems will find it particularly interesting at one point.

When he was talking about how the drug companies adopted an explicit policy of combining marketing and research, he could have been talking about our BPS friends.
