Discussion
Channel 4 Monday evening. The man who fell from the sky.

An unsatisfactory programme. Two men stowed in the undercarriage bay of a BA flight from Johannesburg to London. One fell out of the bay as the plane was approaching Heathrow and was killed, the other man stayed in the bay and survived. The narrator made it all very personal - I did this, I went there, I found this. We must have seen him come in his front door and take his shoes off about 20 times.
The dead man's family were found and interviewed, although no checks seem to have been made that they were who they said they were. Similarly, after a period of time "I received a phone call from the survivor". The narrator travelled to Liverpool to interview him, no question of checking his credentials. What happened when the plane landed? Were you concious? Which hospital did you go to? How did you finish up in Liverpool?
4/10.
