Re: BBC Documentary
ok so i vowed never to post again....obviously it's becoming addictive 
actually someone suggested I post here...obviously someone who had something in for me...
Was vague because a) it's early days, b) because the programme will be character led - issues through their stories c) I don't research with closed ears. In other words I don't know what it's about other than other than being about the erotica/porn industry! It's the way research works. Maybe later on, if Ithere is a point of view missing then I can be specific.
Judging by your mastery of google, a job awaits at the BBC!
Time to change my name to John Smith.

Re: BBC Documentary
The only two proper and worthwhile documentaries about this business were made by companies with a proven track record of factual reporting and non-bias. They approached people directly after having done their homework and research in a proper and professsional manner.
Daytime viewing in itself is an alarm ringer - "how we can save you from vice and corruption promoted by these evil beings! Thank your Aunty Beeb"!
The reference to "gritty current affairs" means catering to the 'tut,tut' brigade of secret NOW readers and their hypocritical ilk.
You want to do some good? Go for them peodo's, the pimps & pushers.

Re: BBC Documentary
I just wonder how unbiased this whole thing will be with the choice of host/presenter (Sally Magnusson) the good old BBC seem to have shown their hand somewhat as to what direction this may take:
PEOPLE think Stephen Hawking is so clever, but when you ask him a question and he is typing in the answer on his little screen, how do we know he isn't just looking up the answer on the Internet?

Re: BBC Documentary
I think that the BBC would be quite capable of producing a reasonably well balanced programme about pornography *if that was their intention*, however with Sally Magnusson as the host/presenter in this instance I have serious doubts.
As the filming is expected to be completed before Christmas it seems entirely likely that it will be seriously out of date before it is broadcast. As Ofcom intend to publish their new broadcasting code at the end of January the rather important question of 'should R18 content be permitted on subscription television?' will be decided in the time interval between production and transmission.
I would recommend that the BBC wait until the beginning of February before starting this project and choose a presenter who is less likely to appear biased, unless the aim is simply to show pornography in a bad light, in which case Sally Magnusson is an ideal candidate and it doesn't realy matter when it's broadcast.

Re: BBC Documentary
Hey Paul.
The BBC are not interested ion the truth, they want ratings. You know that as well as I do.
If people like yourself are REALLY serious, then why not use the judgement in my favour at BOW St Magistrates Court on 12-98?
You lot dusgust me. All of you. You got no balls.
Tou all talk a lot/perform/posture but you NRVER put your ass on the line.
You talk a lot. You posture. You DO NOTHING.
In my world there is one rule - "Put up or shut up"
