Channel 4 Documentary - Bike Theft

As to why hasn't she used the search and found the stolen bikes thread and just read that. Why should she?

er, she's a researcher, or whatever she is, and so she should be well versed in googling and searching for things, and it's not forum etiquette to think of searching a well known forum for a stolen bikes topic. you're not going to get a good, reliable, or accurate docu by quoting anonymous people off the internet saying "stolen bikes fund drugs". that's not proof, there may be proof, but an anonymous person saying it means fuck all to the police, or anyone who would watch the documentary. going undercover in a bike theif ring and filming them stealing a bike, dealing drugs, etc, is going to be much more effective than some facts such as. i feel a documentary that is researched by asking obviously answered question is doomed to failure, i would be more confident in its outcome if they came on here and had read the relevant info then organised going to one of the drinks to meet people or something similar, to actually have names and faces rather than john smith saying how his lock was cut and he went to brick lane and rode off on it when the thief offered him a test ride.

Small Romanian Tourist: do you know the way to London's famous the Oxford's Street ?

Standard reply: Yeah, head down that way and turn left when you get to the traffic lights.

Standard LFGSS reply: Use a fucking map you cunt.

except on here the small romanian tourist has a clear map in their hands and is standing outside bond street station.
