It was a poor effort really, very unbalanced but ultimately a report that typifies a lot of UK media work these days in that all they want to do is create sensationalism that will create outrage amongst 'the people'.
On reflection, I disagree. It's the first documentary in a long time that lays the issues at the foot of those responsible, the government, rather than the simplistic view of blaming Northern Rail. We shouldn't turn up our noses at that.
However, you could tell from the way it was created they had gone in with pre-perceived outcomes which were completely not true. You felt they wanted to drop HS2 in to frame the argument and the inclusion of the empty vehicles was pointless - no mention of PSVAR.
Issue is this needs more than 30 mins and with some ulterior motive. Would love to see a three part BBC4 series on the issues/future of rail that would get to the point.
