Anyone see it last night on BBC 1.
Have to say one of the most interesting documentaries I've seen in a long time.
Jane Felix came across as a wee bit strange, pushy, controlling and deluded, married 5 times and all she wanted to do was get the name on the passport. I'm not saying she doesn't love Omar but married 5 times doesn't really look like she has a handle on partnership with love.
Omar came across as a troubled broken man with a lot on his plate. His views on his father were the same as you would expect from a father son relationship. Yes his father is viewed by the west as 'evil' (term used by the Sun newspaper) but taking the devils advocate view, I didn't think them that unusual that he didn't speak ill of his father (taking the view from history that groups we called evil in history no are considered friends NI a good case and point, the end justifies the means).
I found it funny when the conversation about the how many wives he had or would take, he has three/ she only knew of one. Was there a fourth being thought of/ she said no but would help choose the next one/ he said he had someone in mind already.
He loves someone playing with his hair.
