Documentary evidence

Some of the best journalism never appears in print, which is why it's a tragedy that documentaries are so tough to get hold of once broadcast. I was being treated to a birthday curry last night and didn't see Peter Oborne's superb documentary on Gordon Brown where he had interviewed a hundred people (myself included) to build a fascinating picture. But thanks to the wonders of technology, you can download it free on Channel Four's "on demand" internet service and watch it whenever you like. I've just finished watching it now. If you haven't used on-demand television before (it's the future!), getting hold of Peter's documentary is a great excuse to give it a try.
