BBC's "Trust Me, I'm a Doctor" episode on vaping.

Did they actually use the word "vaping?" Progress!

Edit: Good stuff!

Great watch. A fair, evenhanded mini- report. Great post!

Thank you for sharing, loved this

I have to admit, I was shocked. I assumed that because of the way BBC leans towards the Liberal side of things that it would have been more anti-vaping than anything, but it was really balanced.

That was pretty surprising to me. I was waiting for a lot of fear mongering and false information. Thanks for posting.

Brilliant thanks for posting this. Now I can show this to the doubters amongst my friends lol.

His honesty is reassuring.
People do fear the unknown. No need to Fear, learn instead.

Outstanding video! Wish some of the legislators in the US would watch it. Of course, they'd say that since he's a "foreigner" he doesn't know what he's talking about. Definitely worth watching.

Bravo.

I am going to share this on FB Nicely balanced and common sense approach is quite refreshing.

Wow, that was a fair video and from the BBC for a change.

It seems pretty positive, we need more videos like that in the mass media instead of the scare mongering.

huh? Do you follow BBC much? I do.

Nick Robinson, their political editor a staunch Conservative. Peter Allen and Dave Croft are liberals? Michael Burerk is liberal?

I have no idea where people get these ideas. Unless maybe Rush told them.

BBC might be called, "balanced". They seem to have a uniquely mixed group of lefties and righties.

I have caught a few of this series, it comes across as a sensible mix between Myth busters and medical programs with some practical health/first - aid advice. Topics such as 'is sugar the new tobacco?' and 'can eating these (water-melon/garlic/something else I can't remember!) foods reduce high blood pressure?' are tested and reported on.
Good to see a positive report confirming what most of us on this forum already believe.

Brilliant video. It is great because it acknowledges the concerns that people who don't understand vaping have and then slowly and without being antagonistic, unpacks and addresses them in a calm fashion. Far too often people in the vaping community just immediately jump down people's throats because they are ill-informed. That's not how you get people to understand your position and not how you win hearts and minds.

This video is great not only to share with people who don't understand vaping, but with your fellow vapers as an example how to go about making a point without picking a fight.
