I'm sure i saw a topic about this earlier "heads up for Requeim for Detroit" but the search shows up nothing.

Anyway, just watched it...thought it was very well done. We think we've got it bad here...just shows how bad things can really get.

It's in General Gassing (page 2 at the moment).

Fascinating stuff; I knew it was bad, didn't realise how bad.

Watched it on the iplayer tonight. Sooooo many issues on that program! It's amazing to see the highs and lows of the American dream played out in 100 years of one city. Without the huge internal migration that they have in the US there is just no comparison of that in Europe.

I'd urge everyone to watch it while it's still in iplayer!

Was a very interesting programme but did it really need some of the stupid sound effects?
