Default Re: Aircrash 1968. Stockport.

Having now watched it all, I must agree with David. A straightforward narrative of events, without distortion for audience-hooking cliffhangers or intrusive "human interest" angles. The victims are not named, and people are allowed to say their piece without interruption. Their stoicism is something to behold, as is the matter-of-factness of the account given by the first policeman on the scene, but then much of the adult population had lived through a war. The prurience of Man Alive hadn't penetrated the whole documentary thread as yet.
