Hi all,
On Thursday the 20th September 2012, I had "Good Cop" set as a series record on my Humax HDR Fox T2 Recorder. This was on BBC 1 as SD not HD. I went to watch it yesterday the 23rd September but the file was empty with a "failed to record" label. I then looked on I Player but it does not show up there! Would anyone know if it was cancelled for some reason? Thanks, Mick IOW |

I do sometimes wonder if broadcast companies think nobody has an on off
button on their tellies though, while fully understanding the motive, it does seem to me that the public is being treated a bit like fragile china.

Yet ch 5 seem to still show cop series which contain just such things on
their various channels. Is there a common policy or are we to assume the programme which was not shown was far more than just that, ie near the same conditions.

Brian One is the BBC, the other is Channel 5, so there is unlikely to be consensus between them. And I think that the postponed 'Good Cop' show has a particularly violent woman police officer attack, from what I read, so I can understand the reasoning. One of those cases where, whether they postponed it or they didn't, somebody would complain. -- Davey. |

It's long been policy to be cautious where entertainment programmes might appear to be relevant to a tragic incident. I can remember a Goon Show being postponed because it contained a rail crash, and there had just been a very nasty one at Didcot. I think it's a reasonable procedure, even though this wasn't a comedy, where the drama accidentally comes close to something over which people are still shocked. |
