Re: Dispatches on C4 now
I watched the programme and it certainly left much open to ridicule. Having said that, I thought the lady barrister's campaign to get the abortion limit lowered from 24 weeks to 20 weeks was worthwhile. (Whatever side you come out on on this debate is not what I'm concentrating on; more the manner in which she conducted herself). I thought the narrater/cameraman was very underhand at the end. She was campaigning for an amendment in abortion law, and the cameraman was trying to put words into her mouth in front of the MP about what he thought she had said about Islam (when in fact he was confusing her with that Steven Green bloke).

Anyway, an interesting programme, though obviously a bit toe-curling too. Usually these sorts of things are from America, so the fact that we had a home grown documentary made it a bit more interesting than the norm.
