Cycling accidents - British TV documentary
We make serious documentaries for British TV - BBC and Channel 4
mostly, and are now working on programme about cycling accidents involving heavy goods vehicles around the UK. There have been several accidents, and deaths, in London so far this year which have been comvered, to some extent, by the press. But what about accidents outside London around the rest of the country? We have found these very hard to find. If you know of such accidents involving heavy good vehicles, outside of London, please get in touch. Many thanks. We would like your help. |

BugBear The guy comes here with a reasonable request - a simple check indicates that he is probably above board - others sensibly ask for more info' - but all Round can do is give a gratuitous insult by referring to him as "Shroudwaving media scum" -- If you're going to make snide insinuations about the author, as you undoubtedly did, then you can **** right off. (Guy Chapman) If you are going to make accusations about someone, then you need to be able to substantiate when asked to. (Judith Smith) |

Could you post what production company you are, your company address and proper details etc... You will get a better response and it seems only polite if you are looking for information that posters know who they are posting to so they can make an informed decision about whether they wish to participate. IE: the production company that tried to get homeschool parents to participate in a documentary turned out to be a hatchet company with a bad reputation which used some very underhand techniques and reporting styles that non of that community wished to engage with. If you have nothing to hide then post the details so members can check you out. If you don't then I would have to advise others not to respond. Sniper8052 |

A quick look online supports his gmail address: a Dr Ed Harriman at that IP address, who seems well-respected as a documentary maker. If he's that one, he writes for the London Review of Books, which must count for something. ;-) You're right, though; it would at the very least be polite to tell us who he is. -- Mark, UK |

He's unlikely to find many interview subjects, though, as being crushed by a truck tends to limit your future participation in TV documentaries :-( Guy -- May contain traces of irony.

It may be there are not that many large vehicle collisions outside of major urban areas particularly as they tend to be 'anacdotally' left turn collisions from stationary. Sniper8052 |
