Agreed, apparently they think - or it's actually the case - that if something isn't phrased in the terms of a drama, it won't be interesting.
I'm vaguely interested in F1 mostly from the technical perspective, so I watched this video yesterday, about the 'ground effect era'
- BBC Horizons 1981.So relaxing to watch. Super informative, they even spend some time to explain what a turbo does, a narrator with a pleasant voice (plus of course the oldschool accent, but it's up to you whether you like that I suppose) who is engaging, but does not try to overdramatise anything. The camera work is simple, but effective, and they're not scared to linger on something or somebody for a few seconds. Because it's not bloody Die Hard, it's a documentary.

jesus fucking christ
why is the bbc turning every factual documentary into an episode of eastenders, overblown dramas personal issues, were here to learn about the subject not watch some presenters having crisises
" oh no the computers aren't working will this ruin the whole experiment "
no, we know the experiment worked fine its well documented that it worked fine
on last nights black hole at one point the editor just gave up, there was a 20 second slot along the lines of " oh no the reflector telescope isn't working what can we do, oh lets fix it, oh its fixed, we can get on with the experiment "
seemed they just lost the will to overdramatise
