It's unbelievable. I'm quite amazed it is even going to be broadcast.
Today I watched this 12 minute video
on Utrecht...and then read about C5's programme.The UK feels so backward and reactionary when you compare the two side by side.

This programme sounds like a heap of dangerous turd, but it's on Channel 5 - I don't think any random neutrals are going to watch it and think 'those cyclists, who I'd never really considered before, are awful and I must start behaving like a twat towards and around them' - it'll probably be watched by a few mouth-breathers who already think like that, or a very few reasonably-minded people who think 'wtf is this, cycling is a Good Thing'.
Or maybe I'm stuck in my middle class elitist bubble...but Channel 5?
Not sure this is the right place for this, but Channel 5 are running a 'murder all cyclists' doc tomorrow. Graun review of it has already had comments disabled because this Britain.
