This may be an indicator of how poor the programme producers may be at the subject matter.
The word you were looking for Sir was 'film'.


No, I'm sorry. You are wrong. Film is a specific term that, when used as a verb, indicates the use of motion picture film. Film has not been used on a regular basis in the production of outdoor television for many years. Videotape may be used as a verb describing acquiring scenes using videotape. But now it is as likely as not that some combination of videotape and solid state digital media will be used for acquisition. In that case I used exactly the correct; shoot, referring to shooting scenes.

This is nit-picking at its worst. The message that we hang together or hang separately is lost on those who argue that because they don't like what they see on outdoor television, then the whole scheme is bad. You play into the hands of the anti's. If you don't like outdoor television, then don't watch it, but don't vilify legal and ethical methods because you don't like them. Just put a lid on it and stop aiding and abetting the peta types.
