Anyway what I find unbearable about many BBC progs is the attempt to engineer us into believing that different cultures are all equal to or better than European culture - my objection is not to do with skin colour but with my belief that European heritage is something to be immensely proud of (for all its faults - and everything wrought by humans has faults) and has achieved greater things than many other cultures, however vibrant and socially generous they may or may not be.zmkchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08972549292961948240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4905080602885676490.post-91800688177741296102010-04-12T12:16:23.714+02:002010-04-12T12:16:23.714+02:00Blimey, did you manage to purloin an internal memo...Blimey, did you manage to purloin an internal memo from the commissioning department of BBC Drama?
