Producer responds to Guardian TV review: ‘If an opera is reviewed, you get someone who knows about opera’

June 30th, 2009Posted by in Broadcasting, Editors' pick

A commenter who claims to be producer-director of BBC2′s ‘The Madoff Hustle’ (aired Sunday), Roger Corke, responds to Tim Dowling’s review of the programme for the Guardian:

“If an opera is reviewed, you get someone reviewing it who knows about opera. The same is true if dance, art, architecture is reviewed. Why is it, then, that newspapers give the TV reviewer’s job to someone who clearly doesn’t know anything about TV?”
