I found both programmes irritating and frustrating, but annoyingly compulsive.<BR/><BR/>I have to say that although Terence Davies was passionate, he didn't seem that well-prepared in terms of his arguments.The programme seemed heavily weighted in the NFTVA's favour and it was no surprise it came out on top.
