Yes Gareth, the same BBC that gave us is latest production of Oliver Twist casting a black girl as Nancy. Ideology over reality every time. --------------------- It wouldn't occur to you that she might have been the best actress at the audition would it? I saw it and thought she was a brilliant Nancy and don't see what difference it makes. I don't recall the line in the novel "Bill Sikes' girlfriend, the poor white girl, Nancy....." Quite right historicity is not a science. All the black slaves not exported to Jamaica in time for the new Wilberforce laws earlier that century would have been absorbed into the mainstream by Victorian times? Besides which whoever played it, the real life model would have been so covered in soot and street grime that it wouldn't have been obvious except on a BBC production. In the meantime the lack of scientific talent at the Blue Peter output end of things wouldn't have got lost entirely. It's just that the facts the same scientists who brought us news of a carbon dioxide increase of 70 parts per million also brought us news of a mid day background level and news of a fall of 400 parts per million of oxygen molecules (presumably apart from the CO2?) though from watching either BBC, ITV C4 or 5, you'd still be ignorant. Even reading the churlish nonentities such as that amoeba: Dawlish, you would gain little insight. Those two overlooked vital signs require the introduction of an inverse law and that could get scientific. |
