BBC, good? [Boxing and Delorean]

"Thrilla in Manilla"
BBC2 had a show called "The Fight" last night, documenting the fight between Muhammed Ali and Joe Fraizer, great show.

Later on they had a documentary about the ill fated Delorean car project in Belfast. Very interesting, showed how John Delorean lied about sales and got goverment subsidies!

BBC is certainly growing on me recently

The Fight is a series, it's been on for a while now.

Not sure, haven't been watching it - waiting for it to be repeated on BBC3 or 4.... Think it was/is a 6 part series.

Saw that a while ago, was q.good the whole thing was like a sub-plot of Dallas, cant believe how everyone was duped so badly by De Lorean.

Holidays in the Danger Zone is also good, about a guy doing a Michael Palin but in dicey places like Uzbekistan and Tadjikistan. Think there were other series on Western Africa and now Central America too.
