I taped it – well, got Bastard the PVR to record it, which amounts to the same thing if he’s feeling generous. However, that meant I missed out on pressing the red button at the end to watch the complementary “Opposition viewpoint” bit on interactive.
Fortunately, the lovely Beeb have put it on their broadband site and you can watch it provided you’ve got RealPlayer installed. Hoorah!
I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
