BBC Documentary looking to speak to the cannabis community
- Thread starter Doc-U-Maker
- Start date
Cannabis: What's the Harm?
Part one of two. Former EastEnders star James Alexandrou (Martin Fowler) investigates the lengths people will go to get marijuana and discovers exactly where it comes from. He meets a 17-year-old who smokes cannabis with his parents and a mother-of-three who uses the drug to control her emotions. He also follows the police squad clamping down on large-scale growers and travels to California, the first American state to license it for medicinal use
Category Documentary
Director Andrew Parkin
Executive Producer Robi Dutta
Producer Andrew Parkin
BBC3 9:00pm-10:00pm (1 hour ) Thu 27 Jan
Same old shite then as all the other programs. California insight might be worth a watch, but nothing we haven't seen a thousand times already in other documentaries
Things like this only show what most of the public already think about cannabis and the bad image they have on it. Showing some idiot parents smoking "killer skunk" with their children isn't helping

Thats not even the doco, is it? That one with Martin Fowler is old, right?
Why would it say in various news sites that he was making one to release in 2011? I can't find any old docs with him in them. He was caught smoking weed that was published in the newspaper a few years ago if that's what your thinking of?
Here's some clips from the first episode

OMG i have to have my WEED. WHere can i get some. Got any? I am gonna KILL somebody if i do NOT get my WEED!!!!!!
I read this thread and i can now safely say with some degree of certainty that this was NEVER ever going to be an impartial affair and as the last two shows have demonstrated this is exactly what has happened.
I have not even seen the show that is on tonight but by judging on the title i have little to worry about. Never in a million years would i have talked to these people and i dont care what sort of assurances were, would be, or have been given. The BBC is good value for money for people in the UK but they do tow the state line when it comes to its reporting.
The BBC is promoting legal state sanctioned propaganda. As much as i hate Murdoch there is nothing wrong with giving people another side of that propaganda as well. Heck, gimmie all the propagana and i will read it all and then learn what i need to from all of the available sources.
BBC being impartial....lmao.
Here we go for reefer madness part two being rammed down the people of britain. Bring on the daily fail brigade.

is anyone else watching it right now?
They raided an apartment based on heat signatures from the roof. When the coppers found nothing but an open door leading to the attic and no plants growing they conveniently added "other intelligence" during the interview to support the raid. More like they lied their asses off to get the warrant in the first place as there was nothing to be found and had to cover their asses.
A quarter way through a copper suggested that 6 plants equals 50.000 pounds sterling. Later on in the show a coppers says that 262 plans would be 260.000 pounds sterling. Both these figures were gathered during raids and submitted by the coppers themselves.
A stoners drivers test? The program even suggested that cannabis consuption could be as much as drinking 4 pints of beer and that you would get that level of impairment. I want what they are smoking.
While it portrays cannabis in a far better light than ALL BBC produced doc's i still get the feeling that this is trying very hard to find the bad stuff about weed and they are not finding them.

I think they done quite a good job compared to previous documentaries. That David Nutt dude got fired because he told facts...See how the media doesn't cover that story? He was in the paper for about 2-3 days and bang, gone. old story.

cheesey
get your facts right . NOT 6 plants he said 30 would be around 50k( jamies counted around 30 . ) that would be just over 8oz a plant and sold for £200 a oz to make 50k from 30 . just shows the police know fuck all about yeild ect ect .
thats what that copper said it doesnt reflect on barts doc .
well done so far bart
tbh so far bart has done well i think . . its was great to see prof nutt speaking the truth about canna .
it was well balanced part from that 13 yrs old .so happy to see a real medi user the 30 yr old with ms .
WHATS THE HARM WITH CANNABIS . . . . . YOU GET A CRIMINAL RECORD. well said prof. nutt

I think it was one of the best documentaries BBC has done on cannabis. It did show things in a better light than the others which were looking at all the negatives.
Looking at the US medical MJ scene and then back to the dull miserable UK is unbelievable. Hopefully people will wake up a little after they see how things are over there compared to here.
It was sad to see Prof. Nutt talking about being fired for speaking the truth, I'm glad he was given another chance to speak out again.
Good to see the MS sufferer telling his story and rocking the Extreme Q.
I laughed at the cop at the end who kicked that old guys door down saying that you NEED 500-600w to produce anything, which is why it picked up on their radar. I guess they haven't seen the CFL forum on here

be a-fraud.. be VERY a-fraud
I quite liked the doc... The worst part being that twat presenter making every possible stupid remark and innuendo about the dark side of the weed...what a damn looser!
But imho it was a balanced view about the cannabis reality and i intend to watch the next week show.
Of course that like the vast majority of docs on the subject they NEVER get their facts straight that´s why i enjoyed Dr.Nutt wrapping it up with one essential fact...
THE BIGGEST DANGER OF CANNABIS IS GETTING A CRIMINAL RECORD OUT OF IT!!!
