if you're in the UK or get bbc1

Don't miss tomorrow's (jan 28th) Panorama at 8.30 pm. Someone posted about this a while ago but tomorrow's show will be on the guy from Blur who went to Colombia and met coca farmers, drug dealers etc. Its only 30 mins long, hope its good!

I didn't know a bloke from Blur came to Colombia and did all that, shame I'm not in the UK nor do I get BBC1.

Come to think of it, Panorama does upload all its episodes on to the BBC1 website...so im sure youll be able to watch it after Monday.

If you go to www.bbc.co.uk there is a banner saying "Making the unmissable, unmissable" and it's called Iplayer. From here you should be able to watch Panorama from Tuesday.

I've just watched it. Brief, but punchy. I hope a few of those wankers who 'take a cheeky line' at their Notting Hill dinner parties saw it.

Very interesting the impression Uribe made on Alex James: "A very brave man...measured. A statesman in a country which badly needed one."

That was my first thought! They managed to spell it right on the intro but not when the President is on!

I personally thought it was a waste of time. I thought the objective was to highlight the suffering it caused in Colombia, yet we were introduced to a mule who didn't give a toss about what he was doing, drug dealers who were happy to supply and "How to" guide on cocaine production. A wasted opportunity me thinks...

What I have, I do not want to lose, but Where I am I do not want to stay, but those I love, I do not want to leave, but those I know I no longer want to see, but Where I die, I do not want to go;I want to stay where I have never been
