Considering there is a Lorraine Kelly Documentary on ITV about Dunblane and the subsequent ban airing this week leads me to believe this is someone looking for a story.

So the worst that he can do is upset part of the U.K. He's not intending to upset us all. :good:

Unless he's one of those people who confuses the U.K. with England. :flag13:

Do you have any channel/time details?

Hmmm, 'not available in your region'? ITV 9pm on Thursday 11th. Must be a Scottish only broadcast?

Not naive at all. I get thoroughly annoyed by folk saying England when they mean either the U.K. or Great Britain. I find it quite offensive. If you mean England say England but England is only a part of our great nation despite what the devolutionist nincompoops say. :flag13:

I saw the trailer for that program a few days ago, so I agree with your theory....too much of a coincidence given the 'new member' thread topics and tone.

The Documentary is on this Thursday night at 9pm on ITV.

Be prepared for the "Dignified Science" again from the governing bodies.

Dignified silence.
The shooting organisations did little to defend pistol shooting. They didn't make a case against the hatred directed at pistol shooting and shooters. The media called us perverts and worse. It would be classed as a hate crime now.
Individuals did their best, but it was like peeing in the sea for what difference it made to the witch-hunt against us.
The national organisations like the NRA sat back and, in effect, pleaded guilty and awaited sentencing.
Regard
Peter.

I suspect that many will have read Sandra Uttley's book Dunblane Unburied, but if you have not it is a revealing volume well worth your time.
