Should the morning-after pill be advertised on TV? Last night, an advert for the emergency contraception was shown on British television for the first time. The animation, which was shown at 9pm after the watershed, shows a young woman waking up in bed next to her partner and then going to a pharmacy to ask for the only morning-after pill. Does this empower women, or just encourage promiscuous behaviour? Graham Stewart takes your calls, texts and emails.
