If You Could Make a TV Documentary...

If you were offered the chance to make a TV documentary, either as a polemic or a piece of newsy reporting, what subject would you choose and why?

And before you ask, no, I haven't...

I would like a documentary on how ministers, past and present, are regarded by insiders for competence, personality traits and what they are like to work for.

I suspect most voters, including those interested in politics, have little clue.

Tom said...

I would want to produce something that hasn't been done before. The first thing that springs to mind is a serious, extensive critique of the BBC.

Anonymous said...

The way the media fail to report political stories from the perspective of how the policy choices would affect people, rather than following which ever convenient "editorial" or "spin" line they feel is most newsworthy, so dumbing down and demeaning politics.

Obnoxio The Clown said...

The failure of centrist, personality politics; and the sham that the state can fix anything.

Chris said...

A proper debate on Flat Tax and a reform of the welfare state. I would propose a basic payment to every UK citizen in lieu of dole, pension, child benefits, etc. (Obviously the amount depends upon age, circumstances etc.) and everybody gets taxed the same amount (33%?) on any money they earn, however they earn / receive it. All fair and equitable and everybody gets treated the same.

I'd be checking up on the long term results and effects of weight-loss diets.

In several decades I've yet to meet one person who has managed to lose more than 10kg (which is a normal weight variation anyway) and keep it off for good.

It can't be that the entire world is a bunch of munching wimps without willpower?

How about a programme called "I'm a Prime Minister - get me out of here!"

On a serious note, it would be of interest to put suitable candidates into a mock up of No 10 and give them realistic & morally tricky scenarios to solve. Allow him a team (cabinet) of choice, and then some "civil servants" who will control the flow of information in and out of No 10.

Run the show for 6 weeks, with 6 candidates, and then we could all vote for the one we want as the real PM.

A cross between the mass entertainment reality show, and a serious attempt to educate a wider audience on political realities away from all the sound bites.

Well you did ask.

My choice would be: how Britain is losing its entrepreneurial spirit because the state interferes too much in people's lives and believes the state can solve all the problems, instead of leaving much more to the private sector.

Blimey! Some very angry/bitter people - yet we're within spitting distance of a new administration that just might reverse some of the annoyances of living here.

I'd have something much more positive - how about a 'phoenix from the ashes' documentary on those guys trying to get a new Woolies off the ground.

Geo said...

Dr David Kelly's death.
The contradictory evidence, the panic from Bliar, the outrageously narrow scoped Hutton report washing whiter than white. Concluding with a copy of all evidence being handed to The Hague war crimes commission.
I'd obviously hope to do a follow up piece called "Bliar on trial for war crimes and murder"

VotR said...

I would document the rise and fal of New Labour, which died when Tony Blair was stabbed in the back, and was replaced by the far left once Blair had secured a 3rd term for his party, with a smug Brown taking the reins while wiping his dagger clean of blood and hiding it under a treasury cushion.

And it would also document Labour's last days past the next general election, how the unelected Brown and his far left loonies brought Old Labour in through an obfuscated back door and completely turned people against one another via views on over-populated immigration, near bankrupting the country during the recession by borrowing and raising public debt to record levels, promoted discrimination against men in the so-called 'Equalities Bill' and then the expenses scandal erupted which was piano wire in disguise, but in cold justice form, rather than purely malicious.

And we still have yet more to come... stay tuned, kiddies.

The incredible demise of this government, the tragic story of Gordon Brown and the likely long term damage the New Labour years have caused our country. It is partly a dig at Labour, but decisions this government have made and their fall from grace have been truly astonishing. They may be the subject of essays in the future.

Definitely of the moment?

Flemingcrag said...

I would like a stab at uncovering why the majority of the Fourth Estate in this Country misled the British people by insisting for 10+ years that Gordon Brown was a good Chancellor of the Exchequer and why to this very day they continue giving this Government an easy ride. This last point personified by Gordon Brown's appearance today on the Andrew (I love Labour) Marr show.

Raedwald said...

I'd make an affectionate, feel-good piece on Britain's boat gypsies, in the style of Chris Terrill.

In backwaters, creeks and hidden places all around Britain's coast is a growing community of boat dwellers, living on everything from volkboats with leaky deckheads to sixty foot gin palaces. Frequently instinctively libertarian, often highly articulate and always thoroughly individualistic but with one thing in common - they loathe the intrusive State.

I've met a lot of 'em and like them a lot.

Jon Lishman said...

I'd do one about the Seven Years War, the world's first truly global conflict.

Or one about the long-running, catastrophic dynastic struggle between King Stephen and the Empress Matilda in the 12th Century.

Or one about the social revolution in England caused by the Black Death.

Fascinating ;)

The BBC and its funding by licence which is a tax. In this technological age, why do we need a publicly-funded BBC given the choices

Cneifiwr said...

Mine would be "They do things differently there" - a comparison of different aspects of life in some of the major European countries with our home grown efforts at healthcare, education, policing, criminal justice, skills training, etc. Enough for a series, I suspect, but so few people in Britain have any experience of living and working abroad and tend to accept what our politicians and the Murdoch media tell them. I remember recently seeing some poor old boy in Doncaster being pathetically grateful for his treatment on the NHS. He only had to wait a few months for his operation, was housed in a multi-occupancy ward and fed pigswill. Most of our European neighbours would find that shocking.

Of course in some regards, we might emerge quite well, but I suspect that a good many Brits would be shocked to see how they have been palmed off with second-rate schools and hospitals at massive expense, all the while being told by both Tory and Labour governments that we live in the best of all possible worlds.

It has to be a whistle-blowing expose of the global warming scam. The paucity of reliable science, the political and financial contamination of scientific process. The threats, the bullying, the well-organised and intensive lobbying, and the huge sums of tax-money behind this. The subsequent acquiescence of governments. The historical context (cf similarities with the nazi environmental movement in the years before WW2, similarities with religious fundamentalist movements - mankind's chasing of Utopian dreams etc).

Furthermore - the social consequences of the Global Warming movement - the undermining of confidence in a 'usable' future. The indoctrination of our school children - which as well as terrorising them, again strips them of any idea of an open, positive future in which to flourish. The scrutiny of the Global Warming movement and its direct negative effects on the world's markets - with attention paid to a loss of industrial and technological confidence and collapse in trade - with particular attention paid to the motor industry. It's effects on stopping meaningful trade development with the third-world (particularly Africa), forcing those countries back into poverty and a dependence upon 'aid'.

The refusal of scientists who support the AGW theory to enter into serious debate with those scientific experts who hold an informed scepticism. A look at Al Gore's frequent, well-documented, fleeing of any arena where the issue could be discussed and analysed intelligently.

Much more - in fact, this documentary would likely have to be a 6-part series. But think of the international confidence that would return when this monster is finally laid to rest in the history books - under the chapter "the decade of endarkenment - the quasi-religious sabotaging of science".

The ID card scheme. A proper in-depth look at how they are going to work (and how they won't work) and how they could be misused in the future (e.g. turned into a licence to visit a bar, with the drinking "privilege" stored on the card and revoked for "inappropriate" behaviour).

I would dearly love to make a documentary about the destructive evil of drugs which has and continues to destroy hundreds of thousands of lives in particular Heroin or Brown as it is known on the streets, once hooked on this substance all is lost.

Included in the documentary i would like a full investigation as to how tens of thousands of todays heroin addicts and other class A drug users came to be addicted to these substances of certain death.

I have personal experiance of this not by taking any drugs but some old friends sadly some not with us anymore due to Heroin overdoses... how did they get addicted? they were in at her Majesties pleasure and to get through the time served most inmates used to smoke weed , rightly or wrongly whatever view its what a lot of prisoners have done since time, anyway because of the effect it had on the inmates in the calming effect it was largely and widely accepted and the screws turned a blind eye. then a certain MP in her wordly wisdom when she was Home Secetary or some other Minister of Prison or something like that decided against all expert advice, to not under no circumstances bring in the drug testing in prisons it will cause mayhem , why... Weed remains in ones system for weeks , but class A can be washed out in 24 hours with enough water , so all the Class C weed puffers turned to heroin and crack and the like and became addicts, in fact tens of thousands became addicts and thousands actualy died because of this due to drug abuse, and all to score a cheap political point and a jump up the political greasy pole.

Oh , one more important thing , i would like Anne Widdecombe to front this documentary.

You will be a brave man Ian to let this one go! See some MPs who come over all righteous are not so righteous as they seem are they, and they have very selective memories, i wonder what it must feel like to contribute to the deaths of thousands of young people and know that thousands of family members have seen there lives uttery destroyed, and they wonder why they are all detested so much

1) How about the Human condition. What makes us tick. How much our emotions play in guiding every decision we make in our life, especially fear. That we only use our logic to justify our decisions. The more we understand the human animal the more tolerant we will become.

2) Following on from Michael Palin's "Poles Apart" but about the differing (or not so differing) life's of pole dancers around the globe. :-)

3) About how resentful the welfare system can be. Many are "Trapped in the system by the system!" A docemantary that highlights on a daily basis the ineptness of the many tedious procedures that welfare reciepients have to endure. The crazy rules that stop those who want to work or re-educate from doing so.

I would make a series of documentaries on why the BBC has decided that the 1980s is pooh pooh, and its habit of moving famous and popular trends of the 1980s into the 1970s in its documentaries and dramas (for instance, the snazzy red 1982 Trimphone called "The Phoenixphone" turned up in Life On Mars - set in 1973 - and the Thatcher drama Margaret - in a scenes supposedly set in 1975).

I find this rewriting of history fascinating - and have done ever since "I Love The 1970s" ripped most of the fads out of 1967-1983, whilst claiming to be a year-by-year rundown of 1970s pop culture.

My documentary would be called: "The BBC's 1970s: Taking Over The World - Beginning With The 1960s And 1980s."

Hmmm...something on the lines of: Cultural Marxism -- how it's infested every aspect of our lives: the BBC, multiculturism, political correctness, human resources-speak and 'diversity co-ordinartors', New Labour, Old Labour, soft Toryism, local councils, the universities and teaching unions. There was a documentary in the US called "Indoctrinate U" that showed us what happens in the universities here; it only touched on a small aspect of the philosophy. It would be like a right-wing Michael Moore film.

"A history of risk"- exploring the foundations of, and understandings about, probability, a ubiquitous mathematical construct with no agreed interpretation. The consequences for a society which combines innumeracy with malfunctioning risk manipulations: health scares, the lottery casualties, gambling addicts, the credit crunch, health and safety. The overlap between risk and human psychology. Ok it would have an audience of one!

How about a documentary how Labour Ministers were promoted so far out of their depth eg Estelle Morris so good that she resigned but was sent to the Lords anyway or Jacqui Smith now facing a defamation action for banning a fairly innocuous US "shock jock".

Morland J: What did he do or say?

JS:"I don't know"

Morland J: "So you acted on hearsay and gossip?"

Those hard working people on low incomes and the way that the tax system works against them. Too proud to simply give up and claim benefits they're doing 2,3 ,4 jobs to make ends meet yet pay proportionately more in tax than any other sector.They have lives based on need not want.

That's what I'd like to see.

The way Brown and his ilk have royally screwed these hard-up, hard working people and the way great gobbets of their poor wages go to pay for the profligacy of the middle class, well-off, public service social engineers.

There are more of them than you think and it's something the political class need to consider and then hang their heads in shame.

The explanations of booms and busts associated with the Austrian school of economics.

Radio 4 recently had a short piece by Hugh Hendry supposedly about why Schumpeter is better than Keynes. Unfortunately it hardly touched on economics at all; it was instead about Schumpeter's personality.

We need a good documentary about the harm caused by central banks, the harm caused by inflation, how the government disguises their dilution of the currency, how dilution transfers wealth from the poor to the well-connected, the problems of the historical gold standards, and what a proper currency would look like.

Hayek's ideas in "The Denationalisation of Money" and "Choice in Currency" would be a good place to start.
