Tits on TV

[Gob]

The first advertisement to appear on UK daytime television with a female nipple fully visible has been broadcast, with the full advert being shown on Monday.



Created for the CoppaFeel! charity, it is being shown during Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
It was broadcast on Good Morning Britain on Friday, during a discussion about the disease with the BBC's Victoria Derbyshire.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the UK, with one person diagnosed every 10 minutes, with almost all of them women.


The advert encourages people to examine their own breasts to check for signs of irregularities, which could be symptoms of cancer.
It shows inanimate objects being touched, as well as men and women touching their own chest and nipples.
Love Island reality TV star Olivia Buckland, television presenter AJ Odudu, blogger Anna Newton, and vlogger Lily Pebbles all feature.

Scheduled to run on TV and in cinemas, in 60 and 40-second versions respectively, it will not be shown in or around children's programmes.
It also shows inanimate objects, encouraging viewers to explore them by touch
Natalie Kelly, CEO of CoppaFeel!, said: "In demonstrating the power of our hands and celebrating our touch as the best tool for checking, we hope to encourage more young people across the UK to adopt a healthy boob-checking habit, which could one day save their life."

One in eight women in the UK will develop breast cancer in their lifetime.
Some 5,000 people will be diagnosed during Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Survival rates for the disease are improving, and have doubled in the last 40 years in the UK.

Almost nine in 10 women survive breast cancer for five years or more, while every year about 11,400 people die from breast cancer in the UK.

The ads should be quite touching.

I don't think this will work. In fact it will be a bust.

Is this what you saw? I'm udderly shocked... shocked, I tell you.

The idea is to get women to commit the examination technique to mammary.

[Lord Jim]

This gives a whole new meaning to the phrase, "boob tube"....

[Burning Petard]

I note there have been no comments here by females.

Time for Brad Paisley to redo his song "Ticks" as "Tits" .... "I'd like to check you for ticks" becomes "I'd like to check out your tits".

Hell, it almost (re)writes itself!
